Center for Buddhist Studies
Promoting academic research on the Buddhist tradition and its related religious, intellectual, social, cultural, and artistic aspects around the world
Our center provides regional, national, and international leadership in the academic field of Buddhist studies.
Collaborating with academic units and communities within and outside the university, the center’s activities include a Buddhist studies lecture series, rare Buddhist archive preservation, financial assistance to scholars and students of Buddhist studies, hosting academic conferences and workshops, a visiting scholar program, contemplative studies and community outreach.
There is a new home planned for the Center for Buddhist Studies within the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine.
