The Faculty of Dirasat Islamiyah received a visit from the Baitul Maal BRI Foundation (YBM BRI) on Monday, November 20, 2023
YBM BRI's visit was part of a series of previous visits, which on this occasion was represented by Mr. Irfan. Mr. Irfan came to FDI to offer a scholarship program for FDI S2 students as well as the Ulama Cadre program. During his visit, Mr. Irfan appreciated FDI as a faculty that has the excellence of Islamic Studies. Related programs that can be cooperated between FDI and YBM BRI in the near future are research funding assistance and education of ulama cadres.
In response to the offer, the Head of the Dirasat Islamiyah S2 Study Program, Mr. Willy Octaviano, welcomed what was conveyed by YBM BRI. FDI agreed to the two programs offered and will immediately prepare a proposal.
To respond to the need for Islamic religious experts in the fields of economics, waqf, and halal product certification, the Faculty of Dirasat Islamiyah offers a Short Course program for FDI S2 alumni and the general public for 6 months. This Short Course will not only be held in the country but part of the time will be held abroad, especially the Middle East.
Responding to this, Mr. Irfan stated that it was very possible if it was carefully designed to be implemented in 2024.
