The Dominican House of Studies traces its mission to the preaching charism and Catholic intellectual heritage bequeathed to the Order of Preachers by its founder, St. Dominic de Guzman. Dominic constructed a religious order international in scope yet decentralized in structure to address the needs of the Church by preparing preachers, both intellectually informed and pastorally competent. This evangelizing mission is asserted in the primary claim of the Fundamental Constitution of the Order of Preachers that the Order was instituted "especially for preaching and the salvation of souls." To prepare preachers, Dominic established houses near the leading universities of his time. Students of the Order could follow a prescribed course of study in preparation for their pastoral work. Dominic insisted that spiritual formation is essential to the intellectual formation. The academic study was situated within a religious community shaped by ordinary life, liturgical prayer, modified monastic observance, a democratic form of government, and fraternal charity. St. Thomas Aquinas completed this vision by sharpening the speculative quest for truth within a broad Aristotelian framework, marked by a respect for the scientific method, freedom of inquiry, the broadness of scope, the precision of concepts, and largeness of spirit. Thomas remains even today guide and model of the Dominican intellectual life because of his docility of mind to Revelation, unwavering respect for the visible world and the human person, and unflagging commitment to think with and within the Church. The Dominican House of Studies is the direct heir to this theological and spiritual tradition that Dominic founded. Thomas developed a theological heritage, both speculatively inclined and pastorally charged, that spans eight centuries. In service to the Dominican Order's evangelizing mission, the primary purpose of the Dominican House of Studies is to provide a Catholic theological education that prepares students for the ordained ministry in the Province of St. Joseph. Recognizing the broad appeal of theological education in the Dominican tradition, the Dominican House of Studies accepts all interested and qualified students without regard to race, gender, religion, or ethnic background. The Dominican House of Studies is committed to imparting to all of its students a capacity for serious scholarship and basic competence in philosophy and theology through the study of St. Thomas Aquinas in dialogue with the best of contemporary thought. For ministry preparation, it offers a comprehensive program of studies integrated with spiritual and pastoral components to form students imbued with a desire for holiness, capable of effective preaching, and competent pastoral ministry. With an academic environment shaped by a Thomistic focus, a small student enrollment, and a high faculty-student ratio, the Dominican House of Studies fosters among students and faculty an intimacy conducive to the personal formation in the spiritual, intellectual, and ministerial spheres of preaching, teaching, and other ministries. The Pontifical Faculty believes that a bachelor's degree is essential preparation for theological study. Applicants for admission to the Pontifical Faculty are required to hold a bachelor's degree or equivalent, from a college or university, regionally accredited in the United States or Canada. Taking courses at the Pontifical Faculty of the Immaculate Conception is a great way to continue to learn and grow in the Catholic Faith. To serve those who wish to further their education and their professional competence, but who do not currently desire to embark on a full degree program, the PFIC offers courses on an individual basis. Courses may be audited or taken for credit throughout the year. Persons who have earned a B.A. degree or equivalent from an accredited institution may take up to four courses per semester as a non-matriculated student. Admission as a Non-Degree Seeking (N.D.S.) student does not constitute admission to any degree program. However, suppose such a student should later apply for admission to a degree program. In that case, course credits earned in the non-degree seeking study may be applied to the degree, and the application fee for the degree would also be waived. Persons may also audit courses to understand that no papers or examinations will be required or graded, and no academic credit will be given. All N.D.S. students must submit an application, official transcripts, an application fee, and a recent photo. Students who attend the PFIC are most concerned with intellectual and spiritual growth, and the school is ordered to provide an atmosphere conducive to that end. As the genuine study of theology requires living a life of grace, the PFIC offers many opportunities to grow spiritually. All students are welcome to join the Dominican community for prayer, both for Mass and the Divine Office. The chapel is open for personal prayer throughout the day. Many Dominican priests are available as confessors or spiritual directors, and special Masses and adoration are offered for the students throughout the year. One of the unique benefits of study at the PFIC is studying alongside many Dominicans and other diocesan and religious seminarians and priests, whose joy and dedication foster hope for the future of the Church. There is a student lounge where students gather between classes to relax with some coffee and conversation, and the library provides a pleasant and quiet place to study. Also, throughout the year, there are occasional casual gatherings and outings planned for the non-Dominican students. The students elect a student representative who regularly meets with the administration to foster a healthy and happy relationship and experience. View full university

The Pontifical Faculty of Educational Sciences «Auxilium» is an ecclesiastical Faculty founded canonically at the Istituto delle Figlie di Maria Ausiliatrice (Institute of the Daughters of Mary Help of Christians or Salesian Sisters of Don Bosco) in 1970. Its origins date back to 1954 when the Figlie di Maria Ausiliatrice founded the International Higher Institute of Pedagogy and Religious Studies in Turin, which was recognized and approved by the Sacred Congregation for Religious in 1956. In 1966, by Decree of the Sacred Congregation of Seminaries and Universities, the Institute was incorporated into the Higher Institute of Pedagogy at the Salesian Pontifical University in Rome. The legal and academic ties between the two bodies were later redefined so that by 1970 the «Auxilium» had its statutes. To this day, however, the Faculty's Chancellor, the Rector Major of the Salesians of Don Bosco, also heads the Salesian Pontifical University. In 1978, the Faculty moved its headquarters to Rome. Faithful to the original inspiration and guidance of the Magisterium of the Church, it is committed to understanding the requests for training from different cultures to provide adequate responses and new perspectives. With the Holy See becoming a signatory of the Bologna Process, the Faculty is working to ensure comparability in the standards and quality of higher education, aiming to foster mutual recognition of training courses. The «Auxilium» continues to carry out its academic mission with the practicality and vision typical of the Salesian approach, a heritage which the University preserves and develops. The Pontifical Faculty of Educational Sciences «Auxilium» fosters and promotes research in educational sciences and trains researchers, teachers, and professionals at various levels in the field of education. Following a Christian perspective and aiming to help people fully achieve their potential, the Faculty believes that philosophy and theology play a fundamental role in well-balanced training in educational sciences. The Faculty's understanding of educational sciences respects the different education dimensions, approaching it from various angles - philosophical, theological, psychological, sociological, historical, legal, methodological, and communicative. The Faculty, therefore, offers general teacher training, together with specialized study in one of the fields of educational sciences. In keeping with Don Bosco's principles of Christian humanism in education, the Faculty studies the educational issues related to infancy, childhood, and adolescence, with particular attention on women's development. Auxilium is a leading Faculty for the training of education professionals. The Faculty operates primarily in the fields of training, study, and research and has the following aims: To maintain its position as a leading training institution for education professionals through constant innovation in the training provided and in the teaching and learning strategies applied To provide comprehensive training in the field of educational sciences To train both lay and religious students within the context of the new evangelism, preparing them for intercultural and interreligious dialogue To be involved in the international scientific community as a significant point of reference for reflection and research in the field of education To promote humanism, which comprehensively protects and educates individuals, using development and innovation to empower women and young people.

The ETF is found in Heverlee, a suburb of the century's old yet vital city of Leuven. Leuven is only a stone-throw away from Brussels, Europe's heart, and close to the national airport. The history of Leuven as a university town goes back to 1425 when the university was founded. Erasmus, Vesalius, and Mercator are some of the great minds that studied here. The buildings of the oldest university in the Low Countries adorn almost every corner, and the city life is buzzing during the academic year due to over 55,000 students residing here. It makes sense that Leuven is known as the student city in Belgium. Leuven has many treasures: a beautiful historical city center with pearls such as the town hall built-in 1439 or the even older Grand Béguinage. The new museum M, the botanical garden, charming shopping streets, restaurants, and outdoor cafes. You will find plenty of opportunities to enjoy culture, nature, and sport. In Leuven, there are several small Protestant Evangelical Churches. In the surrounding area, you will find even more. It is easy to get around in Leuven by bicycle or public transport. Leuven itself is also easily accessible: The town lies at the intersection of two major motorways. There is a train station in the center of the town. Brussels airport is 15 km away. ETF has to deepen, strengthen, and equip the international evangelical movement at an academic level. This is why our faculty is a destination for anyone who wishes to prepare him/herself scientifically to take on roles in churches, religious education, Christian organizations, and the mission field. Through scientific research, publications, and life-long learning, ETF contributes to the theological reflection of the evangelical movement in Belgium, the Netherlands, and worldwide. The task of ETF is, therefore, to place all its activities in the service of God and our neighbor. The ETF wants to equip people to take their place in Church and society to spread the good news of Jesus Christ in the world. Our approach is Bible-based, at the academic level, and culturally enriching. In the Reformation tradition and line with the worldwide evangelical movement, we study the Bible as the primary and authoritative source for Christian life and thinking. The attention we spend on the Scriptures does not eliminate the importance of tradition, reason, and experience. But to perceive the Bible as the Word of God emphasizes the importance of scientific exegesis of the Old and New Testaments. It also means that the Bible receives a central place in our education, research, and service. We are convinced of the importance of up-to-date and scientifically grounded education and offer recognized degrees at an academic level (Bachelor, Master, and Ph.D.). At the same time, we stimulate spiritual formation in combination with the development of leadership skills. People from a whole range of countries/continents and church backgrounds study and work at our institution. This multicultural atmosphere enriches the formation, broadens the horizon, and prepares our students working, living, and believing together in an intercultural society and church context. As an academic institution, ETF is relatively young, born out of the Bible Institute Belgium work, which originated in mission work among Belgian soldiers during World War I. ETF is located in a former Jesuit seminary on the outskirts of Leuven city. You can see the small tower on the top of our buildings peeking out from over the trees from a great distance. You find this very peaceful and open environment at only a 30 minutes walk from Leuven's historic and lively city center. ETF has its student accommodation and chapel in two wings of the older part of the building. A newer and recently renovated wing (the Jesuits' 'book tower'), the academic center is located, where you find our library, classrooms, and offices. Our theological library contains a quickly growing collection of about 100,000 books, along with access to critical digital databases such as EBSCO and ProQuest. The ETF library serves a dual purpose: it stimulates and supports the study and research of students and professors and serves as an evangelical study center for Belgium and the Netherlands. The library of ETF is located on the first and second floor of the academic building. On the third floor, works older than 1960 are kept. Periodicals older than 1995 are kept on the eighth floor. The materials on these floors are available on request. You can consult the largest part of our collection through the online catalog. The ETF library provides wireless internet, scanning, printing, and copying facilities, but primarily: a quiet place to study. Interested parties can access the library utilizing a visitor's card, available at the library office. Anyone in need of books outside of our collection will find the most extensive theological library in Europe at less than five kilometers of ETF: the Maurits Sabbe Library of the KU Leuven. A membership card to this library also gives access to the Central Library and other relevant specialist libraries of the KU Leuven, such as the Higher Institute of Philosophy. The Evangelical Theological Faculty (ETF) in Leuven is a unique institution for higher university education. We are located in the oldest University City in the Benelux, in a country where Protestants are only a small minority. Simultaneously, as one of the few evangelical institutions for higher education in Europe, ETF has an impact that reaches far beyond our national borders. View full university
