Emory Tibetan Studies Program

Emory Tibetan Studies Program Celebrates 12 Years

Situated in the foothills of the Indian Himalayas and home to His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Dharamsala is the capital of the Tibetan exile community. Within this remarkably beautiful and culturally rich environment, Emory University and its partner the Institute of Buddhist Dialectics (IBD) offer two study abroad programs (Spring Semester and Summer Term) for students interested in both India and Tibet. Both programs are open to undergraduate students from any accredited university.
