Established in 2015 as Holy Transfiguration College (HTC), Agora University initiated innovative, interdisciplinary Master’s degree programs aimed at community-building through Orthodox Christian tradition thought across divergent domains. In March 2017, the institution was renamed Agora University, designating HTC as the Department of History, Philosophy and Religion. HTC aims to be the nucleus of Agora University’s vision to be a pioneering institute dedicated to the humanities from an Eastern Christian perspective. HTC continues to focus on developing interdisciplinary venues between the Eastern Christian tradition and the humanities. HTC is committed to providing high quality Orthodox Christian foundations while also maintaining a vigorous tradition of high-quality research on subjects pertaining to the intersection between theology and the humanities.
Our diverse student body comes from all over the world including USA, Canada, Egypt, Ethiopia, and India with various professional experiences ranging from engineering, medicine, social work to physics and ministry.
Our Mission is to establish a community of Christian thinkers, where members can grow spiritually and academically, develop in character, and witness in the contemporary world. We believe in a future where our graduates are ready to impact their society by building bridges between Orthodox Christianity and the humanities through distance learning.
