Miami established a relationship with the Institute of Buddhist Dialectics in Dharamsala, India, during summer workshops in Tibet led by two faculty in anthropology from 2004-2008. His Holiness is a patron of this institute, one of the premier institutions for study of Buddhist thought and philosophy. 



After university faculty visited Dharamsala and signed an affiliation agreement, Miami began offering a Tibetan studies semester program last fall. It will be offered annually in the fall. 

The Venerable Geshe Kalsang Damdul, from the Institute of Buddhist Dialectics, visited Miami and held a prayer flag ceremony here last February to commemorate the affiliation agreement.
