Catholic Institute of Technology, the first research university focused on bridging the gap between faith and science, is set to welcome students in September. Located in both Cambridge, Massachusetts and near the papal summer residence in Alban Hills of Castel Gandolfo, the university aims to provide scholarship across STEM fields. The goal is to shape the next generation of ‘saints, scholars, and scientists’.
Offering degree programs in civil engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, biomedical engineering, and biology, Catholic Institute of Technology plans to accept 50 students per year. The university seeks to build a community of Catholic scientists and engineers who can engage with advancements in STEM while remaining true to the Catholic tradition. They hope to challenge the misconception that faith and science are incompatible and have caused many to distance themselves from the church.
Founded last fall by Bill and Alexis Haughey and Bishop Arther Kennedy, who is the auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of Boston and serves as professor emeritus and University President, Catholic Institute of Technology is looking to create a space where individuals can explore both their faith and scientific interests in harmony. Susan Barreto, an author with a longstanding interest in religion and science, is involved with the university as a board member and editor of Covalence, the online magazine of the Lutheran Alliance for Faith, Science and Technology.
