Nova Forum provides students with programs for intellectual formation in Catholic thought, connecting the spiritual life with the life of the mind. Our seminars, workshops, lectures, and symposia offer learning experiences that draw on the Catholic past to speak to topics of contemporary concern in ways that supplement the university. Nova in Latin names the “new things” promised in the Scriptures and reflected in Catholic humanistic disciplines, including theology, philosophy, history, literature, politics, and the arts.

Nova Forum also shares Catholic intellectual traditions with the secular academy. As contemporary universities struggle to connect teaching and research, ethics and the marketplace, culture and the common good, Catholic thought offers new resources and new perspectives. While located at USC, Nova Forum engages other institutions across southern California, starting with a founding partnership with Pepperdine University. We welcome the participation of colleges and universities throughout the region as well as Catholic communities in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles.
