The Institute of Ismaili Studies (IIS) hosted a celebratory event on 6 September 2018 at the Aga Khan Centre to commemorate the signing of the Memorandum of Agreement between SOAS University of London and the IIS.
The agreement will mean that SOAS will award MA degrees for the Graduate Programme in Islamic Studies and Humanities (GPISH) and the Secondary Teacher Education Programme (STEP).
Both GPISH and STEP were designed by the IIS following extensive consultations with a wide range of stakeholders and experts in the field of Islamic Studies. The Institute has always worked towards designing and delivering programmes that could match – and possibly exceed – the quality standards of leaders in the UK Higher Education sector.
