Courses offered are selected from the principal texts of the five subjects studied in Tibetan Buddhist monastic colleges from all traditions:

Each year the IBA aims to teach one philosophy text and one "pith instruction" text supporting practice. These two courses are designed to complement each other, thus providing a balanced approach between understanding the profound meaning of the Buddha's teachings and applying it in ones life. The courses cater to students at all levels of academic experience and Buddhist study and practice. This diversity contributes to a stimulating and enriching environment. It is a joy to interact with dharma students from various walks of life, many countries, different traditions and of all ages. Courses are conducted in English.
