Abstract

The teaching of Islamic economics and finance has been part of the agenda of the International Association for Islamic Economics (IAIE) since their first meeting in Makkah in 1976. The constant emphasis on the importance of integrating Islamic economics and finance education as part of educational mission of higher education has been noteworthy. During the 10th International Conference on Islamic Economics and Finance in Doha (23-24 March 2015), the 4th International Symposium on Islamic Economics and Finance Education was held. This was a roundtable discussion of Islamic economics and finance higher education providers to deliberate on the challenges and opportunities that exist in Islamic economics and finance education. The representatives of higher education institutions from around the world were asked to submit a report on the status of Islamic Economics and Finance (IEF) education in their respective countries. The main findings from each submission and the discussions that took place during the roundtable are summarized in this symposium report. At the end of this report, appendices on IEF education are included for the benefit of the reader. The first is annotated bibliography of the literature on IEF education. The second is a directory of IEF education providers.
