°ÄÃÅÌìÌì²Ê Centers & Institutes

The °ÄÃÅÌìÌì²Ê is associated with a number of centers and projects that are devoted to a deeper exploration of topics closely connected with the University's mission.

Ann & Joe O. Neuhoff Institute for Ministry & Evangelization

The Neuhoff Institute for Ministry & Evangelization offers a wide range of continuing education programs for adults interested in in-depth exploration of their faith as well as deacon formation programs in both English and Spanish. The Neuhoff Institute also hosts the annual Dallas Ministry Conference, an event attended by thousands of ordained and lay people from around the world.

The Donald and Louise Cowan Archive houses, contextualizes and presents texts and information pertaining to the writings, thought and teachings of Donald A. and Louise Cowan.

The St. Ambrose Center for Catholic Liberal Education and Culture exists to extend the °ÄÃÅÌìÌì²Ê’ core mission—that the pursuit of wisdom, of truth, and of virtue are the proper and primary ends of education—to the world at large.

The Studies in Catholic Faith and Culture Program seeks to enrich the lives of Catholics by providing an intellectual formation that encompasses the breadth and depth of human culture. It explores the history, traditions, and works that have shaped the Catholic inheritance, resulting in a deeply Christian portrait of the human person.

The Institute for Homiletics will offer an array of preaching improvement opportunities and resources for Catholic clergy.
