About us

Who are We? As part of his comprehensive plan to create an organized structure for the Syriac Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch, His Holiness, Mor Ignatius Aphrem II, officially established the Department of Syriac Studies, by a Patriarchal decree, number 1/2015, issued on January 6, 2015. His Holiness appointed (Raban) Mor Sewerios Dr. Roger Youssef Akhrass, director of the Department, and charged him to organize its divisions and follow up with the scientific and cultural issues overseen by the Patriarchate.
