Sumario:In consonance with the Apostolic Constitution “Ex Corde Ecclesiae” (1990) John Paul II, the author highlights one of the fundamental characteristics of Catholic Universities as is to promote a genuine integration of knowledge; so that faith and reason are not opposed but rather complementary in that search for the truth that edifies and realizes the man to the full. The author argues on behalf of a university ministry that has to respond to the needs of the environment where the dialogue between faith and reason, faith and science, faith and culture has to occupy a place of prime importance. The University is the privileged place to promote that culture of dialogue where differences and pluralisms are accepted for a confrontation that helps to create a critical, argumentative, reflective mind and leads to integral development of the individual.
