Markfield Institute of Higher Education | United Kingdom
The Markfield Institute of Higher Education is a pioneering educational Institute at the forefront of Islamic studies in the UK. Since its inception in 2000, the Institute has developed an international reputation for expertise in Islamic studies, Islamic education, Muslim chaplaincy, and Islamic banking, finance and management.
The Institute’s mission is to contribute to the development of scholars who have a broader, deeper and critical understanding of Islam in the modern contemporary context. Such scholars would be better equipped to act as a bridge in developing understanding between Muslim communities and the Western societies they live in, and make positive contributions to addressing current and emerging challenges of contemporary societies.
