Alumni Research Sabbatical

黑料不打烊鈥檚 research sabbatical for alumni is structured to offer聽convenience and support. The convenience of living at the Seminary in a community of聽formation with a complete schedule of liturgical services, food service, and housing in a private聽room/bath of the Seminary annex provides adequate comfort for necessary academic work. The聽support of the Seminary faculty along with its library and media services allow for significant聽research to be accomplished on campus. The nearness of other seminaries and renowned聽theological libraries provides additional resources. Such will be of benefit to a student working聽to complete a doctoral dissertation or thesis. Please be advised that the application process to be聽in residence at the Seminary should not begin until the dissertation or thesis topic has been聽approved by the institution granting the degree. (n.b. the Byzantine Catholic Seminary is not聽accredited to grant doctoral degrees).
