Malaysia INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ISLAMIC THOUGHT AND CIVILIZATION (ISTAC), INTERNATIONAL ISLAMIC UNIVERSITY MALAYSIA (IIUM ISTAC, IIUM is a research and postgraduate institution offering degrees in Islamic thought, Islamic civilization and Islamic science at the master’s and doctoral levels. Set amidst a wooded and serene residential area in Kuala Lumpur, its present campus consists of a main administration and academic building, a library, a mosque and a conference hall. Its buildings are a strikingly picturesque synthesis of Islamic, Western and Malay architectural styles. ACADEMIC
PROGRAM The academic program at ISTAC emphasizes the study of all aspects of Islamic thought and civilization, the major world religions and the study of the present day modern, secular world The international character of the academic staff as well as the student population reflects the institution’s philosophy. The graduate program is intellectually, spiritually and humanly- linked to the sources of Islamic revelation and to fourteen centuries of Islamic scholarship. It seeks to preserve traditional elements of Muslim education with its intimate master-disciple relation. The teachers and their students come from various academic backgrounds—law, theology, philosophy, political science, library science, psychology, medicine, biology, dentistry, architecture, economics, history, education, business management, literature, engineering and Islamic studies. While the medium of instruction at ISTAC is English, proficiency in the Arabic language is compulsory for all degree-seeking students ISTAC’s graduate programme emphasizes three specific areas which are not rigidly compartmentalized. These are Islamic Thought, consisting of the major fields of theology (‘ilm al-kalam), philosophy (falsafah-hikmah), and metaphysics (tasawwuf-‘irfan); Islamic Science, its philosophy, methodology, and history; and finally, Islamic Civilization, which encompasses a wide field of study including that of culture, history, and the human and social sciences. At this initial stage courses in the fields of culture, history, politics, economics, law, psychology and education will be offered including that of major Islamic languages. Apart from Arabic, which is compulsory, ISTAC also teaches Persian, Greek, and Latin.
