Heiligenkruez), colloquially referred to as Hochschule Heiligenkreuz, is a private, Roman Catholic pontifical university located in Heiligenkreuz, Austria. Founded in 1802 by the Cistercian monks of Heiligenkreuz Abbey as a seminary, for much of the 19th century, the college remained very small, with less than 20 seminarians and several Cistercian instructors. During the late 19th century and 20th-century, the college's profile grew, and more students arrived, made up of Cistercians, as well as diocesan and religious seminarians. In 1978, it earned university status, and Pope Benedict XVI named it a pontifical university upon his visit in 2007. The university's campus is located in a group of buildings located at Heiligenkruez Abbey, sharing space with the monastery and a seminary. As of 2016, the university enrolled 295 students, including 43 Cistercians, 40 from other religious institutes, and 75 diocesan seminarians, the rest being lay men and women. It is the only university administered by the Cistercian Order, and the only theological college in Austria, and the largest educational institution for priests and religious in the German-speaking world. HistoryBeginningsTheological education has been present at Heiligenkreuz Abbey since the Middle Ages. Since 1802, a state-accredited and Church-recognized institution of higher education has operated, originally organized as a seminary to train Cistercian priests from the Zwettl, Heiligenkreuz, Neukloster, and Lilienfeld abbeys, all located in Lower Austria. For much of the 19th century, the college remained small, with enrollment never more than 20. In the late 19th century, thanks to both political as well as economic changes, the college grew in prestige and influence. Instead of having to teach from state-approved curriculum, the Cistercian professors enjoyed more intellectual independence. In addition, the professors would now receive degrees from universities in Vienna, Austria, Tübingen, Germany, and Rome. Despite these changes, enrollment remained low. 20th-century growthAfter Vatican II, enrollment grew rapidly after the college, then known by its Latin name, Institutum Theologicum, came to the attention of the Bishop of Regensburg, Rudolf Graber. He wanted his seminarians to experience life in a religious community before coming diocesan priests, so he sent them to Heiligenkreuz. Soon, other bishops and leaders of other religious orders began sending their own seminarians to be educated there. By 1976, as the college was offering graduate degrees and opening enrollment to lay students, it was granted university status by the Austrian government. Recent historyIn May 2002, professors and students made a trip to Rome, where they were received in a papal audience by Pope John Paul II. In 2007, Pope Benedict XVI visited the university. On 28 January, the feast day of St. Thomas Aquinas, Benedict raised the college to the rank of pontifical university. He praised the university for its combination of theology and spirituality and described it as a "prominent place of study." CampusThe university is located in Heiligenkreuz, Lower Austria, Austria, in a complex of buildings located on the Heiligenkreuz Abbey property. Administration and organizationThe Grand Chancellor of the university is the abbot of Heiligenkreuz Abbey. The current abbot and chancellor is Maximillian Heim, OCist, since 2011. The Rector is the de facto leader of university, with more day-to-day involvement in administration. The current rector is Karl Wallner, OCist. The Vice Rector, as well as much of the teaching body, are Cistercians from Heiligenkreuz Abbey. The university is organized into twelve 'institutes' or departments.[1] They are as follows:
AcademicsStudium GeneraleStudium Generale is a curriculum in which the Pope Benedict XVI University partners with the International Theological Institute in Trumau. The German/English-language curriculum, which has been offered since 2015, is a one-year course that offers an overview of philosophy, theology, ethics, economics, law, history, spirituality, and art, all centered around the Catholic intellectual tradition. Classes are split between the two institutions, with two-thirds of classes being held in Trumai and the other third in Heiligenkreuz. Students reside at the International Theological Institute campus.[2] Student lifeStudent bodyIn the 2015–2016 academic year, the university had 295 students. Cistercian students numbered 43, students from other religious orders numbered 40, there were 75 diocesan seminarians, and the rest were lay men and women. Residential lifeSeminarians and students from religious orders reside in Heiligenkreuz Abbey. Other seminarians live at the Leopoldinum Seminary, also located at the monastery. The only traditional dormitory is the Pope John Paul II Student House, home to both lay and religious male students.
