a vibrant intellectual community.
Founded by faculty, alumni, students, & friends of the University of Pennsylvania, the Collegium Institute is an independent, academic community with a catholic vision: that is, it draws mainstream learning into conversation with the Catholic intellectual tradition & cultivates reflection on the catholic, or universal, questions that animate every human life.
Check out our 10th Anniversary video, in which students, faculty, and staff discuss the mission and impact of the Collegium Institute.
Upcoming Events:
