The Institute's Fellowship Programme began in 2005 and the duration and length of fellowships will vary as the Programme expands. To date, fellowships have been six months in duration. The purpose and functions of the Fellowship Programme are multiple and include:
- to provide opportunities for scholars from the Muslim world to gain exposure to academic resources (i.e. other scholars, libraries, etc.) about their areas of research outside of their home contexts;
- to undertake research that falls within the areas of focus for the Institute’s research activities;
- to participate in, and where appropriate, lecture or give presentations on their areas of research to wider audiences;
- to undertake a specific research project that is directed by the Institute;
- to publish at least one academic article while a Fellow at the Institute.
AKU-ISMC has offered five fellowships to date. Research areas have included higher education in Iran, higher education in post-Soviet Central Asia, biomedical ethics and law in Islamic society.
