Course description

The course will introduce students to the study of Islam, with a particular emphasis on Islam in the contemporary world. Students will benefit from learning about Islam in Australia and abroad, set against a background where Muslims have faced prejudice through the war on terror and Islamophobia. Students from a range of backgrounds will be challenged by the wider themes that the course raises that relate to human religious and cultural diversity in Australia and globally. The course covers a wide-ranging set of themes that include: ethics, science, media representation, gender, social inclusion and diversity, security, and free speech. This course may not run if there are fewer than 20 enrolments.
