Thurman is the Jey Tsong Khapa Professor of Indo-Tibetan Buddhist Studies in the Department of Religion at Columbia University , President of the Tibet House U.S., a non-profit organisation dedicated to the preservation and promotion of Tibetan civilisation, and President of the American Institute of Buddhist Studies.
