The Salvatorian Institute of Philosophy and Theology, seeking to respond positively to the Pope's exhortation arising out of the African Synod, accepts that it has a prominent role to play in the proclamation of the salvific Word of God, to be a sign of the growth of the Church.

This Institute is prepared to immerse itself in the life of the local church in various ways: by providing trained personnel, by studying important theological and social questions for the benefit of the Church, by developing an African theology, by promoting the work of inculturation especially in liturgical celebration, by publishing books and by publicising Catholic truth and by contributing to a scientific study of culture.

In order to give a more extensive response to the challenges of the forthcoming New Millennium in the context of the local Church in Tanzania the Salvatorian Institute of Philosophy and Theology opens the Diploma Course in Theological Studies for Sisters, Brothers and lay people.

Academic Program

This course provides an introductory program of philosophy, which extends through two semesters (one academic year) and theology programme, which extends through three years (six academic semesters).

During this four-year program the students should complete major requirements of the First Cycle in theology.
