The Seminary
of the Immaculate Conception is the Roman Catholic center
of theological education and pastoral and spiritual
formation on Long Island. Established in 1930 for the
formation of men to the priesthood, it maintains this
responsibility as its primary work. Responding to the
needs of the local Church after Vatican II, it also
serves men and women, lay and religious, preparing to
assume ministerial roles within the Church and those
who desire to deepen their knowledge of the Christian
tradition and their living of the Christian life in
the world.
The Seminary
offers Master's degrees in Theology and Divinity, and
a Doctoral degree in Ministry. Through all its programs,
the Seminary intends to foster a dynamic, collaborative
relationship between ordained and non-ordained ministries
in the Church and to contribute to the ongoing dialogue
between the Christian tradition and contemporary culture.
