university for primarily lay students, overseen by a Board of Trustees that includes several cardinals and bishops. In recent decades, the University has made progress in strengthening its Catholic identity, especially in faculty hiring.<\/p>\n<p>Catholic University is one of the largest institutions within The Newman Guide, with more than 130 academic programs in 11 colleges and schools of business, canon law, nursing, philosophy, theology, and more. The liberal arts core curriculum includes two Catholic theology and two philosophy courses. Catholics comprise about 70 percent of the students and about 80 percent of the faculty, which the University has grown in recent years. Some theology professors have a canonical mission, which is similar to the <em>mandatum<\/em> but for pontifical faculties.<\/p>\n<p>There are several Masses, Confession, and Adoration each day on campus and at the magnificent Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, which is an extraordinary benefit to Catholic students. All student residence halls are single-sex, and opposite-sex visitation is allowed in student rooms.<\/p>\n<p>The University offers more than 100 student clubs and more than two dozen varsity sports in the NCAA Division III Landmark Conference. Washington provides museums, politics, lectures, and internship opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Studying at a mid-sized urban university means greater resources and diversity in both the student body and the faculty. For many students, studying at the Church\u2019s national university in the nation\u2019s capital is an opportunity too good to miss.<\/p>\n<h3><strong><em>What we really like:<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Catholic University\u2019s First-Year Experience is rooted in the Catholic intellectual tradition. The Busch School of Business has earned a great reputation for integrating Catholic and business principles. The Conway School of Nursing is excellent in its pro-life commitment, including providing students with a biomedical ethics course. Theology studies lead to a pontifical degree; the faculty includes some outstanding theologians. Philosophy historically has been excellent.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\"
