Course Overview
The Islamic Finance M.Sc. programme at Durham University is a specialised taught programme, involving quantitative methods in the analysis of Islamic and conventional finance by making reference to their technical particularities. The programme consists of a set of core and elective modules, culminating in a practice-based business project or a research-based dissertation. International Opportunities: International Study Tour - We organise an optional International Study Tour to a European destination, typically Switzerland. This intensive programme takes place over several days, normally in March/April, and offers you a great opportunity to get an 'inside perspective' on international business, and to network with key staff within organisations. International Conferences - We organise and sponsor international conferences on Islamic economics and finance in collaboration with other leading global academic institutions such as the Islamic Research and Training Institute (IRTI) of the Islamic Development Bank; International Shari'ah Research Academy (ISRA), Malaysia; and Kyoto University, Japan.
