With their cover letter, candidates should also submit a statement demonstrating a firm commitment to advance the mission of Catholic higher education as it is articulated in Ex Corde Ecclesiae.

    Applicants should read Ex Corde closely and consider the following questions:

    How does the vision outlined in Ex Corde Ecclesiae reflect your understanding of (1) the nature of the human person, (2) the integration of faith, reason, and the integration of the branches of knowledge, (3) confidence in the knowability of truth about nature, the human person, and God, (4) the essential characteristics of a Catholic university, and (5) the relation between the university and the Church.


    The University of St. Thomas is committed to hiring staff who can help it not only fulfill its integrated mission - the formation of the whole person for flourishing in this life and the next - but also advance it in new ways. The University's Catholic identity is the center of this mission, a Catholicism expressed for our own age by the Catechism of the Catholic Church and Pope St. John Paul II's Ex Corde Ecclesiae. The University asks all candidates applying for this position to consider these documents to ensure their professional goals and practices can align with them. While applicants need not be Catholic, they must be able to support the University as it seeks to be faithful to and embody the riches of the Catholic intellectual tradition.

    The University of St. Thomas is an Equal Opportunity Employer
