Buddhist Studies in India
Since 1979, students have lived in a Burmese Vihar (monastery) while earning 16 semester credits. Participate in the daily life of a Buddhist monastery; become immersed in Buddhist tradition and philosophy; and complete a four-week independent research project - often involving travel - designed around your interests. Students engage rigorously in a comparative approach to both the theory and practice of Buddhist Studies. Participants on this program reach their own understanding of the essence that is common to all varieties of Buddhism while learning to appreciate the cultural and historical environments in which it has flourished.
Dates: Fall (September – December)
Cost: Contact AEA (aea@antioch.edu) for updated cost information.

Experiential Learning International
Semester or Year in India
India embodies everything that is exotic. It is a country that combines better than any other a respect for its past and a thirst for the new, where a woman in a sari might be a cutting-edge engineer, where Hollywood is overshadowed by Bollywood. Studying at the University of Madras will give you a chance to experience this first hand. Here you can study the history of South Indian dance or the issues of nuclear proliferation, Indian English literature or business administration.
