Promoting Theology in the Thomistic Tradition
at the Heart of the Church

Our Mission

The Thomistic Institute at the Angelicum exists to foster theological research rooted in the thought of Saint Thomas Aquinas. It aims at promoting fruitful engagement with other philosophical and theological thoughts, as well as contemporary sciences.

The institute encourages the study of Thomas Aquinas and the Thomistic tradition as a living voice and inspiration for Catholic theology and philosophy. It does so by means of ongoing research and public colloquia, as well as collaboration with other institutes and university entities.
