Benedictine University is a private Roman Catholic university in Lisle, Illinois.[3] It was founded in 1887 as St. Procopius College by the Benedictine monks of St. Procopius Abbey in the Pilsen community on the West Side of Chicago.[4][5] The institution has retained a close relationship with the Benedictine Order,[6] which bears the name of St. Benedict (480–543 A.D.), the acknowledged father of western monasticism.[7]

The university resides in the western Chicago metropolitan area, located near two national research facilities, Argonne National Laboratory and Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. The university's location along the East-West Tollway corridor provides internship and employment opportunities for students. Benedictine University also has a branch campus in Mesa, Arizona.
