The Aquinas Institute was established in 2004 under the directorship of Fergus Kerr OP.
It aims to foster study of St Thomas at Oxford through seminars, occasional conferences, summer schools, and programmes that will bring international research scholars to the university each year.
It seeks to foster the study of St Thomas from three perspectives: theological, philosophical, and from the viewpoint of medieval studies.
Members of the Institute include Revd Dr Vivian Boland OP ( Director ), Revd Dr Fergus Kerr OP ( Founding Director ), Prof. Steve Baldner ( Visiting Fellow, Trinity term 2006 ), Dr William Carroll ( Aquinas Fellow Hilary Terms ), Revd Dr Simon Gaine OP, Revd Peter Hunter OP, Revd Dr Aidan Nichols OP and Revd Dominic Ryan OP.
The Institute puts on a weekly seminar in Hilary term each year in which leading international scholars address a theme connected with the teaching of St Thomas.
In Michaelmas term, the Director runs a weekly advanced reading class on Aquinas for University and Studium students.
In Trinity term, the Director runs a seminar on Medieval authors before and after Aquinas.
Patrons of the Institute include Professors John Haldane, Alasdair MacIntyre Ralph McInerny ( d. 2010 ) and Eleonore Stump.
