IN ADITTION TO YOUR STUDIES

WALK WITH SPIRIT

The University of Deusto, an institution of the Society of Jesus, assumes the mission of serving society through a specifically university-based contribution and from a Christian vision of reality.

A FAITHFUL COMMUNITY

We believe that faith is an important dimension in personal development. That is why we promote activities to live, share and grow in the experience of faith. Based on the Jesuit tradition and Ignatian spirituality, we offer experiences and activities to deepen your faith and celebrate life with others.

WHICH TRANSFORMS

The first step in transforming the world is to transform oneself. Our inspiration is Ignatian spirituality, which engages in dialogue with the world and with those who are different. Activities such as Meditation Workshops, Spiritual Exercises, and Pilgrimage Experiences will allow you to explore your inner life in depth and open your heart.
