Norbuling Rigter College
Sprawling over large expanse of prime land near Dotey River, Norbuling Rigter College (NRC) is the second Private College of Bhutan approved by the Tertiary Education Board and affiliated to the Royal University of Bhutan in July 2017. It offers B.Com and BBA and will diversify its programmes in future.
Nestled amidst greenness of fresh pinewoods, continuous flow of clean water, sights of farmers of the local communities nearby tilling their farmland and sounds of the monastery bell on the ridges above makes Norbuling Rigter College (NRC) a perfect campus for learning.
