Sherubtse College was the first accredited college in Bhutan, founded in 1966. As of 2003 it became part of the newly created Royal University of Bhutan system that comprises all public post-secondary schools in Bhutan.
Sherubtse College is located near the small town of Kanglung in the dzongkhag of Tashigang in eastern Bhutan.
The Royal Government of Bhutan hires about two thirds of the Sherubtse graduates while the remainder have to find work in the private sector or working for non-governmental organizations (NGOs).

Famous quotes containing the word college:
“In looking back over the college careers of those who for various reasons have been prominent in undergraduate life ... one cannot help noticing that these men have nearly always shown from the start an interest in the lives of their fellow students. A large acquaintance means that many persons are dependent on a man and conversely that he himself is dependent on many. Success necessarily means larger responsibilities, and responsibilities mean many friends.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
