Ignatianum traces its roots back to 1867 when the didactic-scientific center Seminarium Cracoviense Societatis Jesu was established in Kraków.[2] In 1932 the Faculty of Philosophy of the Society of Jesus in Kraków received the rights of a Catholic school of university standing. In 1989, after social changes in Poland, it was possible for Jesuits to set up Ignatianum, a legal status Papal University. It has faculties of philosophy and education conferring MA degrees, as well as the PhD in philosophy, through agreement between the Government and the Catholic bishops in Poland.[3]
In October 1989 the Religious Culture Institute was established, a two-year philosophical and theological program of studies for lay people, and in 1990 the religious pedagogy department for training lay teachers of religious education.[4] On October 1, 2011 the name of the school was changed from Jesuit University of Philosophy and Education Ignatianum to Jesuit University Ignatianum. Since 2012, the Ignatianum has conferred the PhD in Humanities within the discipline of cultural studies and philosophy. In October 2023 it was promoted to university, and changed its name to Ignatianum University in Cracow.
The philosophy department offers majors in philosophy, cultural studies, psychology, and journalism and public communication. The education department offers majors in pedagogy, political studies, social work, administration and public policy, and English philology. Full-time studies can be pursued through the web.[5]
