Research
Our research consists of three primary pillars.
Projects
In addition to the three lines of research, our staff also work on several long-term projects.
Our research focus
The Titus Brandsma Institute stands for the academic study of spirituality in the light of the Christian tradition in the past aswell as the present, at the service of church and society through publications, teaching and formation.
Religious landscape
Since the founding in 1968, the academic research at the Titus Brandsma Institute has always had a very unique color and profile. Since the start, the TBI has managed to acquire and maintain a name and fame in the religious, cultural and intellectual landscape both nationally and internationally. In terms of tradition and character, the Titus Brandsma Institute is inextricably linked to the university world, religious life and society.
KU Leuven
Inigo Bocken has been appointed professor of Mystical Theology at KU Leuven's Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies with effect from 1 February 2021. With this designation, the already existing cooperation between the Titus Brandsma Institute and KU Leuven will also receive an institutional embedding. The collaboration will also strengthen the international position of the Titus Brandsma Institute.
