Our mission: Jain Studies at UNT promotes the academic study of Jainism through professional research and curricular offerings in the Department of Philosophy and Religion. We offer a Certificate in Jain Studies, publish the open-access journal Samyak: An Undergraduate Journal of Jain Studies, and sponsor events including lectures, workshops, projects, and other learning opportunities.
Our programming and activities are made possible by generous funding from the Jain Education and Research Foundation and the continued support of the Jain Society of North Texas.
