Advisory Board

The advisory board for Islamic-Religious studies is part of FAU and supports DIRS since its foundation in 2012. Based on religious aspects, the board has contributed to the establishment of study programs and cast of Chairs at DIRS.

The board consists of representatives of Muslim associations that are relevant in Bavaria, prominent Muslim characters and scholars of Islamic theology and related sciences.

The members of the board, which have been appointed by the FAU for a duration of three years, have contributed to the establishment of DIRS in the academic landscape with expertise and scientific eligibility.
