The Emory Tibetan Mind/Body Sciences Summer Study Abroad Program in Dharmsala and Mundgod, India will be coordinating a five-week long study abroad opportunity that brings together the best of both western science and the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. Participants have the opportunity to engage in the ongoing dialogue between modern science and Tibetan Buddhism both in class and in direct interaction with Tibetan monks and nuns studying neuroscience, biology and physics. This program has attracted students from a wide range of majors at Emory as the coursework includes the study of Tibetan culture, Tibetan medicine, Buddhist philosophy, contemplative practice and secular ethics.
