Dries Vanysacker
Professor & Secretary of the Revue d'histoire ecclésiastique / Louvain Journal of Church History at Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies, KU Leuven
The Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies, part of the Catholic University of Leuven (KU Leuven), was founded in 1432. It has played a significant role in the development and diffusion of theological thought in Europe, focusing on academic formation, research and scientific service in the field of theology and religious studies. The Faculty is nowadays composed of five research units: Biblical Studies, Systematic Theology, Theological Ethics, History of Church and Theology and Pastoral Theology. Located in the heart of Europe, the Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies is known for its international character. Students from all over the world have joined our international programmes in English, and international scholars regularly visit Leuven to attend conferences or to study at the Maurits Sabbe Library, considered as one of the best theological libraries of the world.
