Our Profile
In the forty years of its operation, the Department of Theology of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki has formed its own identity and physiognomy. It has pursued and consistently serves the creative synthesis of tradition and renewal, a synthesis which it expresses in a liberal and ecumenical spirit. It systematically cultivates theological dialogue with both the academic and research community. It follows and participates in developments in the field of the scientific study of religion and culture, in the area of inter-religious dialogue and cultural pluralism, in religious education in contemporary reality, and in the prospects for a single European higher education area
The Department attaches particular importance to the study of the Orthodox Tradition and the culture that stems from it and embodies it in various monuments of speech and art, and the methodological tools for approaching and researching these monuments are free of denominational commitments, follow international scientific standards and respect the principle of academic freedom.
The above elements form the Department’s physiognomy and its philosophy, which is based on the triptych of Openness – Dialogue – Culture.
