The Faculty of Catholic Theology focuses its research activities on three thematic areas:

• 1.) Catholic theology in contemporary discourses
• 2.) Interdisciplinary research on religions
• 3.) Ethical challenges in society

 

The thematic research areas of the Faculty are reflected in its structure of subjects.

They include:

• Biblical, historical, systematic und practical theology
• Ethics as well as intercultural religious philosophy
• Religious studies
