David Delio, Ph.D. Assistant Professor Theology Coordinator for the Catholic Intellectual Tradition

Department/Program: Theology

Abstract

David Delio serves as an Assistant Professor in the Theology Department. He is the Coordinator for the Catholic Intellectual Tradition, and the Chair of the Center Team for Mission, as well as the advisor for Theology and Education Majors. He was the recipient of the Sue Ellen M. Canizaro Chair of Catholic Theology Endowed Professorship I-IV at Our Lady of Holy Cross College 2011.

Mr. Delio received his Ph.D. from The Catholic University of America. His dissertation, John Henry Newman's Areopagus, combines an historical analysis of Blessed John Henry Newman’s Tamworth Reading Room with a systematic study of his approach to modern science, faith, and the Church.

Mr. Delio did a Masters’ degree in theology at the Weston Jesuit School of Theology. He also attained a Masters’ degree in education at Trinity University and worked in public schools. As a graduate student he taught undergraduate theology for five semesters at both Catholic University and Georgetown University.

Beyond the classroom, Mr. Delio has two peer-reviewed publications which investigate Newman’s Oxford University Sermons. He has also presented three papers on Newman’s understanding of Faith and Reason, his ecclesiology, and his views on education.

At the local and parish level, Mr. Delio has also been able to share theology. He founded and facilitated a theology group for young professionals in Massachusetts, prepared talks for a Filipino fellowship in Maryland and, most recently, delivered theology lectures at the Notre Dame Theological College in Virginia and St. Bernadette Parish in Maryland.
