About the College

Testimonials

The PhD program had given me a more in-depth understanding of some of the legal issues that I studied in my previous degree, as well as helped open a new path for possible financial and legal work in the future. Within my two terms now, I have been pleased and enlightened by the professors at HBKU and their knowledge of current affairs in the financial world.

Student, PhD in Islamic Finance and Economy

The Islam and Global Affairs program has offered me the platform to make the change I would want to see in this world, and has helped me progress in my career in foreign affairs, specifically foreign diplomacy. It has given me the analytical skills and essential knowledge that will help me make an impact in our society. By doing this, I will be achieving my goal towards becoming a better global citizen.
