About Aquinas Institute of Theology
Part of the world-wide Order of Preachers, Aquinas Institute of Theology is a Catholic, Dominican-sponsored graduate school of theology and ministry in St. Louis, Missouri. Physically located in the middle of the country, our theological mission finds its home in the middle as well, as we strive to follow in the footsteps of our founder, St. Dominic, who intentionally centered himself in the study of the Word of God and placed himself in the middle of the Church so as to reach out to others in all directions. We offer multiple graduate and certificate programs in a variety of formats to accommodate the needs of our students. Situated adjacent to the large and beautiful campus of Saint Louis University, our students have access to all the academic resources of a large Jesuit university, while staying part of our close-knit community. As members of the Dominican family, we share life together in a variety of ways including liturgy and worship, meals, and social events.
