A teaching center for study of Humanities, the Institute is aimed at Catholic lay people and at any person of good will who is looking for professional training in pursuit of degrees in:
- High school diploma in the Humanities
- College degree in the Humanities, with a specialization in Philosophy, Economics or Pedagogy;
- In the future, a Doctorate in Humanities
To complete this preparation, the Institute contains in its installations an academic Library specializing in the Humanities. It also carries out Workshops for Christian communities and to train Pastoral Agents.
Our degrees are recognized by the Holy See, under the Bologna Protocol.
The Institute promotes Humanism from the perspective of Christian Revelation, through scientific investigation and teaching, respecting freedom of religion and of thought of all participants. The object is to graduate high quality professionals in a variety of disciplines, who can go on to assume responsibilities in civil and ecclesiastical life.
The Institute performs a significant service for Christian communities, offering training to Pastoral Agents who lead the different areas of the life of the diocese of the largest city of Cuba, including wide rural areas.
