Aquinas Institute

Studying Aquinas Today for Tomorrow’s World

Fr Richard Conrad OP, Director of the Aquinas Institute

Welcome!

Our Institute has been promoting knowledge of Thomas Aquinas’ teaching and his legacy, and research into his ideas and their contemporary value, since 2004.

Fostering the Exchange of Ideas

Located in the University of Oxford, we help introduce Aquinas to new scholars in various disciplines, and contribute to the exchange of ideas in this world-class University by bringing international scholars to speak at our events or to carry out research.

Our seminar series and colloquia foster a research community, and, often in collaboration with other academic groups, we engage in outreach, especially to young people.
