GOMBAK, 22 July 2017: The Kulliyyah of Islamic Revealed Knowledge and Human Sciences (KIRKHS) has reintroduced the Knowledge and Virtue Camp (KVC) to help elevate the Kulliyyah to greater height in research and publications.<\/p>\n

Speaking on the purpose of this camp, the organiser of KVC 2017, Dr. Elmira Akhmetova said, \u0153KVC is intended to be a real writing and publishing clinic where our academic staff can learn about the publication process of specific journals and become inspired to write and express themselves well.\u009d<\/p>\n

The one-month long camp which started on 14 July was made official following the appointment of former Rector, Prof. Dato’ Sri Dr. Syed Arabi Idid, to the Chair of Ibn Khaldun.<\/p>\n

According to Prof. Syed Arabi, the KVC was first established when he was the Rector of IIUM, but was later discontinued after his term ended.<\/p>\n

“Now this camp is being brought back exclusively to KIRKHS.<\/p>\n

\u0153When I was the Rector, we came up with the idea of KVC for the whole university. After I left, it was not continued, until this year when KIRKHS decided to try it again,\u009d said Prof. Syed Arabi.<\/p>\n

He told IIUMToday that this camp is special to this university as no other university in Malaysia has implemented such a programme.<\/p>\n

\u0153This camp is unique to our university. No other university has done this. Its a time when our academicians put aside their lecturing work and move together to start researching and writing,\u009d Prof. Syed said.<\/p>\n

The modules involved in this camp, as shared by Dr Elmira, include workshops organised by members of renown academic journals such as Pertanika<\/em> (UPM), Kemanusiaan<\/em> (USM), Al-Shajarah<\/em> (IIUM), Intellectual Discourse (IIUM) and Islam in Asia (IIUM).<\/p>\n

The themes of the workshop range from Islamic civilisation to the human sciences, and Islam and the West, and Islamic studies.<\/p>\n

Dr. Elmira expressed the hope that the camp will not only help the academicians of IIUM to be better researchers, but also to make them better teachers.<\/p>\n

“Teaching is a life long learning process. We cannot be good teachers without continuous learning of something new,” she shared. ***<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
