This programme is offered in distance learning format. Upon the student's enrolment for postgraduate study, the postgraduate director will contact the student with a view to begin study either immediately or on agreed date, convenient to the student time horizon.

The teaching language of the program will be English. However, our qualified arabic tutors are available to help those students who need further support in their study.

There is no age limit. Serious students of any age can participate.

Students who complete the requirements of the program and satisfy the examiners will receive master's or doctorate's. This certificate will be signed by International Technological University, UK and/or International Colleges of Islamic Science, London. Since ICIS is accredited by British Accreditation Council and is also a member of the Federation of Universities of the Islamic World, the issued Degree will enjoy international recognition.

Yes. This is possible because the legalization department of the British Foreign Office certifies the originality of our certificate. Therefore, all embassies can authenticate the document.

Yes. This is because the Master's Degree Programme enjoys international recognition, as explained above.

No. The blended eLearning is in fact a face to face version of teaching. Therefore, there is no need to mention this.

Following a questionnaire from 42 universities, the initial courses are set to be: Business Administration, Environmental Management and Information Technology. However, other subjects such as Arabic as foreign language and Islamic architecture will be offered next.

The planned length of the program is 18 months. Twelve months for taught modules and 6 months for project/dissertation.

This mainly depends upon the student's ability and efforts, hence there is no time limit imposed.

There are two criteria: (i) the candidate should have good command of English ; and (ii) the candidate should have scored a minimum of 55% marks in the final year of his undergraduate studies.

The principal method will be a blended version of e-learning method. Recorded video tapes or CDs of European teachers will be sent to students. However, it is encouraged that students meet in our local centres or via Internat chat rooms to discuss their workshop sessions before submitting them to the European teachers. In addition, there are live sessions with European teachers to discuss essays and workshop assignments.

The resources and teaching materials will include distance-learning packages (videos or CD- ROM), structured texts, module handbooks or books, the internet.

No, but there will be live Internet sessions with European teachers which has the same effect of face-to-face teaching. However, there is extensive face-to-face local teaching in our FUIW Chair Program that will be taught in participating universities that you can join.

For the time being, there are three local centres in London, Beirut and Tehran.

Students' performance will be assessed through written assignments and examinations. There will be a written examination on each subject, and all examinations will be rigorously and personally organized at the local centres by ITU personnel sent from London. There will be strict invigilation during examinations in the British tradition. Questions for written examinations will be set by the Module Leaders and validated by an eminent West European expert acting as the independent External Examiner. Examination books will be marked by local and European teachers. The function of the External Examiner will be to ensure that west European quality standards are achieved in all academic activities and by the graduating class. Moreover, there will be one essay for each module that affects the total marks of the students.

A fair scheme will be operated to deal with this. If a student fails two subjects in a given year, then he or she may be allowed to re-sit examinations in those subjects. But, if he or she fails more than two subjects, he or she may be required to repeat the entire year.

We have given a list of booksellers that sell books online in our website. Some texts will be offered in the Blackboard. However, it is student’s responsibilities to buy or find necessary books.
