Scientia et Fides

Aims & Scope

"Scientia et Fides" (SetF) is an open access online journal published twice a year.

It is promoted by the Faculty of Theology of Nicolaus Copernicus University, in Torun, in collaboration with the Group of Research “Science, Reason and Faith” (CRYF), at the University of Navarra.

The journal is characterised by the interdisciplinary approach, multiplicity of research perspectives and broad reflection on methodology as well as analysis of the latest publications on the relationship between science and faith.

The tasks of the journal are perfectly expressed by the motto "Veritas in omnibus quaerenda est" ("to seek the truth in all things") from "De revolutionibus" by Nicolaus Copernicus.

SetF aims to present rigorous research works regarding different aspects of the relationship between science and religion.

For this reason, SetF articles are not confined to the methodology of a single discipline and may cover a wide range of topics, provided that the interdisciplinary dialogue between science and religion is undertaken.

The journal accepts articles written in English, Spanish, Polish, French, Italian and German which will be evaluated by a peer-review process.
