The Aim of Mandalay Buddhist University

The aim of our Buddhist University (Mandalay and Rangon) is to teach the monks, nuns and laypeople to be skillful not only in English, Pali and Sanskrit, but also in Buddhism and other religions, for both academic and missionary purposes.

In order to more effectively carry out our Buddhist missionary tasks throughout Burma, our 'Buddhist University' (Mandalay and Rangoon) is preparing to open 'Buddhist Missionary Colleges' in the monasteries existing in the important district-towns (about twenty in number) situated in the seven Divisions and seven States of Burma, year by year, since about the end of 2008, for giving a rare opportunity of learning "Buddhism, Pali, Sanskrit, Philology and English" (covering the Basic and Advanced Diploma courses) to the monks, nuns and laypeople, who are not lucky enough to live in Mandalay and Rangoon, the most important cities of Burma. Those who have passed the Basic and Advanced Diploma examinations are, for their further study, admitted to "Buddhist University" for B. A. and M. A. degrees, either in Mandalay or in Rangoon.
