About

The PhD in Islamic Finance and Economy at Hamad Bin Khalifa University is an innovative multidisciplinary program that provides students with the required analytical and research skills to understand, analyze, and interpret the workings of the rapidly expanding Islamic financial services and market sectors, and to tackle their emerging challenges and opportunities.

Overview

The PhD in Islamic Finance and Economy at Hamad Bin Khalifa University is centered on the national priorities as set out in the Qatar National Vision 2030, on the local aspirations as enshrined in the objectives of the Shari’a, and on global targets such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
