The Department of Fiqh and Usul al-Fiqh offers Master of Islamic Revealed Knowledge and Heritage in Fiqh and Usul al-Fiqh either by coursework and research or by research only, and the student could either register on a full-time or part-time basis. Based on the student’s research interest, the postgraduate committee will appoint a suitable supervisor and if necessary a co-supervisor who will work with the student throughout the candidature. For details on research work such as how to register, criteria of the thesis and language of the thesis etc. please refer to the CPS Prospectus. Applicants are encouraged to discuss with potential supervisors on the topic of research prior to submitting the application form.
This programme was first offered in 1997, but an academic review was conducted in 2011 and the reviewed version was presented to the Department of Higher Education, MOHE in the same year. In July 2012, the Department of Higher Education approved the reviewed programme. In March 2015, the Malaysian Qualifications Agency produced a document called Standards for Masters and Doctoral Degrees and it was found that the current programme does not meet some of the requirements set out in the document. Hence, some aspects of the programme need to be amended to comply with the requirements.
