Programma di Dottorato in Teologia Spirituale

The Doctoral Program in Spiritual Theology, with a minimum duration of two years, offers the student the possibility of writing a dissertation on a specific area of Spiritual Theology under the guidance of one of the professors of the Department. This program also prepares the students for teaching at the University level.

Under the tutelage of the School of Theology, the Higher Institute of Religious Studies “all’Apollinare” (ISSRA) was established in 1986 as an integral part of the University.

The Institute has a specific didactic methodology, which offers the traditional forms of teaching (lessons, written assignments, oral examinations) in a flexible form, suited to those who for geographical, professional or family reasons are unable to attend an Institute that requires daily attendance.

The University has an esteemed Department of Languages, which co-ordinates teaching of both classic and modern languages. In addition, Santa Croce’s interdisciplinary Center for Priestly Formation provides a systematic pastoral and spiritual formation.
