"In the diocese of Dallas we are fortunate to have at our service the Catholic Biblical School of the University of Dallas Neuhoff Institute. So many times people seek a Catholic Bible study. For them, I am glad to recommend the Catholic Biblical School."
-Rev. Kevin J. Farrell, Bishop of Dallas
Catholic Biblical School is a four year program of intensive study covering the entire Bible, designed especially for deacons, religious education teachers, lectors, and leaders of Bible study groups. Adults of all education levels are welcome. Learn how to interpret the Bible in accordance with the teachings of the Catholic Church and in light of modern Biblical scholarship. Integrate Bible study with prayer and Christian living to cultivate a closer relationship with God's revealed word, and experience fellowship with others who also hunger for a better understanding of the Sacred Scriptures.
The program, which is split into 12 modules over 4 years, is designed to fit into various schedules, with both online and onsite options. Courses are offered in both English and Spanish.
The Dallas - Fort Worth onsite program is meant for individuals in the DFW area who want to take their CBS courses at the University of Dallas or another parish in the area. These classes meet for two hours a week.
Our online courses are taught by acclaimed University of Dallas faculty known for their serious, academic, and faith-filled work. Students engage with classmates through online discussion boards and watch relevant lectures posted by professors. Class, which is split into three 10-week modules, opens the week of September 6 and ends the week of May 8. Online classes are held asynchronously.

The Escuela Bíblica Católica is the same curriculum of the Catholic Biblical School, only taught in Spanish. It is offered throughout DFW and at several dioceses across the U.S. in partnership with the Catholic Extension Society.
The Catholic Biblical School is split into 12 10-week modules over 4 years. Classes begin in early September and end in May each year. The first two years of the CBS program, focus on the biblical books that form the foundation of both the Old and New Testaments. Years three and four of the program cover the remaining books of the bible, emphasizing their contexts and principle themes. While starting at the beginning of the four year cycle is encouraged, a student can join the program at any point. Students completing the requirements of all four years of the Catholic Biblical School program will receive a Certificate of Advanced Biblical Studies from the Neuhoff Institute.
Our approach to scripture is rigorous, scholarly and in conformity with the best of Catholic biblical tradition. CBS is guided by the directives of Scripture study as given in the Vatican II document, Dei Verbum (1965), and in more recent documents by the Pontifical Biblical Commission such as The Interpretation of the Bible in the Church (1993), andThe Jewish People and Their Sacred Scriptures in the Christian Bible (2002).
