Ph.D Buddhist Studies - Course, Fees, Eligibility, Top Colleges, Top Careers

Ph.D. Buddhist Studies focuses on the study of canonical and post-canonical languages and literature of the Buddhist tradition. Therefore, successful completion of the program requires extensive language and textual study. The program offers a concentration in South Asian Buddhism with the relevant languages (Sanskrit, Pali, Gandhari, Chinese). Related courses in disciplines other than language and literature, such as cultural anthropology, history, philosophy, religion, and ethnomusicology, form an important part of the program, and students will usually take courses in these disciplines.
