Catholic Studies

Roman Catholicism is a religion rich in history, theology, artistic culture, and philosophy, and it has played a central role in the development of Western civilization. The academic study of this religion requires the use of several academic disciplines which together form a major part of what is called the liberal arts. Taking courses in Catholic Studies can provide a student with an excellent education in the liberal arts.The Program in Catholic Studies at St.FX was developed in an effort to bring together the many departments and individual professors whose teaching and research bear on the Catholic traditions. It is also a reflection of St.FX's Strategic Plan and the distinctive Catholic traditions of the University.
