Maitripa College offers a Master of Arts in Applied Buddhism and a Master of Divinity Degree. Founded upon the three pillars of SCHOLARSHIP, MEDITATION, AND SERVICE, our contemplative learning curriculum combines modern academic and traditional Tibetan Buddhist disciplines. Students develop the personal qualities of a good heart, tolerance, and joy, as well as professional skills to become agents of positive change in the world. We realize that any one of these three pillars is available in a number of different ways in our lives—mindfulness trainings, dharma centers, colleges, and non-profits are everywhere. Only at Maitripa College are they combined to create a transformative and integrated education that is grounded in tradition.  Explore the programs below and join us!
