A Century of Service to the Catholic Church
 As the Pontifical Theological Faculty of the Immaculate Conception (PFIC) begins a new century of theological education in the heart of the nation's capital, we remain committed to imparting to our graduate students the capacity for serious scholarship in the Thomistic tradition. With a small student enrollment and a highly favorable faculty to student ratio, we foster personal formation conducive to preaching, teaching, and pastoral effectiveness. Our students value learning in a house of prayer and the Dominican charism which links study and spirituality.
The Dominican House of Studies is an apostolate of the Dominican Friars, Province of St. Joseph. Located in Washington DC, it houses the Priory of the Immaculate Conception and the Pontifical Theological Faculty of the Immaculate Conception.
On February 19th, 2010, the PFIC welcomed Archbishop of Chicago, Francis Cardinal George, for the keynote address of our 3rd Thomistic Circles event: "Secularism and the Natural Desire to Know God: a Theological Conference." You can watch the entire lecture, as well as a response from Dr. Russell Hittinger, by clicking on the video below.
