Claremont School of Theology (CST) offers a fully online Master of Arts in Engaged Jain Studies, the first program of its kind. The degree provides rigorous study of Jain philosophy and its contemporary applications. Under an academic agreement, Arihanta Institute faculty serve at CST as Adjunct Faculty, contributing their expertise and offering courses.

 

The program is flexible and welcomes students of all backgrounds; no adherence to Jain identity or belief is required. The curriculum equips learners to integrate Jain wisdom into personal, professional, and civic life. Students may also pursue concentrations in Yoga Studies or Veganism, Animals, and Ecology.

 

Please join us for an information session to learn more about the program. Meet Arihanta Institute faculty, ask questions, and gain clarity on the application and admission process as well as the academic experience.

 

Application deadline: Dec 1, 2025 (final deadline) for Spring 2026 admission.
