This program, based in the School of Divinity, leverages the expertise of one of the nation's premier institutions for religious and theological education. It provides comprehensive exploration of Islamic law, theology, and philosophy's intellectual heritage while fostering dialogue with Christian thought, ethics, and political theology.

The course's interactive structure encourages students to examine diverse disciplines within Islamic and Christian traditions as living intellectual resources—not just historical subjects—that reshape religious scholarship and inform contemporary discussions about Islam, Christianity, and religion's societal role.

Core curriculum components ensure students develop solid foundations in key Islamic studies themes and methodologies, along with scholarly approaches to Christian-Muslim relations.

Participants will cultivate profound understanding of historical and contemporary philosophical, theological, and ethical exchanges between Christian and Muslim thinkers across various cultural contexts.
