Welcome to the聽Catholic Studies Program
The Catholic Studies Program at Loyola University in New Orleans, in the words of Pope Francis, provides students with 鈥渁n integral ecology lived out joyfully and authentically.鈥 An 鈥渋ntegral ecology鈥 is a harmonized and integrated way of looking at all of reality, of 鈥渇inding God in all things.鈥 Catholic Studies does not simply provide students with an opportunity to study Catholic things, but enables them to study all things in a Catholic way, and to arrive at an integrated Catholic understanding of reality.
