About Master of Arts - Buddhist Spiritual Care

The Master of Arts in Buddhist Spiritual Care (MABSC) is a 36-unit, low-residency degree program that provides students with a deeper understanding of how Buddhist philosophy, history, and teaching intersect with social and community engagement and are applicable to the contemporary world.

Buddhist spiritual care can help further the clinical practices of social workers, psychotherapists, spiritual directors, religious teachers, leaders, and practitioners. The program also serves as an entrée into the field of Buddhist chaplaincy (with opportunity to transition to the MDiv professional path) or as an APC-approved supplement to previous chaplaincy training for those who seek to complete the requirements for chaplaincy board certification (BCCI).
