TFI's Summer Student Program


The Summer Student Program (SSP) is a 5 week residential program structured to provide students with intensive instruction in Islamic studies, directed research and training in an area of their academic interest.

The program offers instruction in the Qur'an, Sunnah, Islamic Jurisprudence, Muslim History and Civilization, and other relevant courses. Our faculty come from the top academic institutions in the US and abroad. In previous years, faculty included Jonathan Brown (Georgetown University), Jasser Auda (Qatar University), and Abdulaziz Sachhedina (George Mason University).  

To find out more about the Summer Student Program, you may visit IIIT's website to read about the application process and see the class schedule.

IIIT will also host a Seminar for IIIT Summer School Program Alumni (Dates TBA). 



I'm very grateful to IIIT for this opportunity to connect with so many great young minds of my generation. And I truly feel that I've made connections that will last a life time.
