John A. Ryan Institute

The John A. Ryan Institute for
Catholic Social Thought

The purpose of the Ryan Institute is to examine modern life through the Catholic social tradition in order to foster a deeper integration of faith and work. It does this through:

1. Catholic Social Thought and Management

This Program offers seminars, conferences, publications and programs on the relationship between Catholic social thought and management education and practice.

2. Catholic Social Teaching and Education

The Catholic Social Teaching and Education program supports Catholic school teachers (K-12) and Catholic university faculty seeking to integrate the Church's social mission throughout the whole curriculum.

3. Catholic Social Thought and Community Outreach

This program was inspired by Catholic activist Peter Maurin's vision of bridging the gap between workers and scholars.  The program offers Latino Leadership Scholarships for Latino students dedicated to serving their community.
