Dharma Realm Buddhist University is a higher education institution focused on liberal education within the broad Buddhist tradition, emphasizing knowledge across the arts and sciences, personal cultivation, and the pursuit of wisdom. Located in Ukiah, California on the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas campus, the university sits within a large rural setting in Mendocino County, about 110 miles north of San Francisco. The campus operates within a community environment that centers on Buddhist study and related scholarly activity, and it has a modest to mid-sized staff supported by a range of faculty and initiatives. Recent developments include the launch of a graduate certificate program in Buddhist translation, reflecting an expanded focus on specialized academic pathways relevant to Buddhist studies. The university has also recognized individuals for scholarly achievement, such as a professor receiving a Fulbright U.S. Scholar Program award in Religious Studies, illustrating its engagement with broader academic and international opportunities.
