Modern Academic section

Introduction

Until 1990’s there was no separate sections for Academic and Administration in the DoE and both were under the direct supervision of the Secretary. However, in 1992, as a result of the decentralization process the Administration Section, Education Research and Project Section were formed. Later, in accordance with the resolution passed through the Fourth Tibetan General Education Conference held in 2003, Traditional Academic Section was set up and existing the Academic Section was turned into Modern Academic Section. Hence, two different academic sections as traditional and modern section were created.
