Vaskenian Theological Academy (also Vazgenian, Vazgenyan, Vazgenian Seminary), is a seminary of the Armenian Apostolic Church on the Sevan peninsula on the shores of Lake Sevan in Armenia.
The Vaskenian Theological Academy of Sevan was re-established in 1990 on the peninsula of Lake Sevan[1] during the catholicosate of Vasken I, and after his death in 1994 was renamed the Vaskenian Theological Academy in his honor.
[citation needed] Students complete their 4th, 5th, and 6th years of education at the Gevorkian Theological Seminary at the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin.
[citation needed] Later a Green Theology program was introduced, addressing ecological issues.
The original seminary consisted of an ancillary building that was constructed in 1897 by Catholicos Mkrtich Khrimian (1892-1907); however, it was never used for that purpose (in the early 1990s it served as classrooms, dormitory, and dining room).
