Tie-up to widen career opportunities for Islamic studies grads
The Straits Times
|December 03, 2025
A new tie-up between two colleges aims to provide future Islamic studies students in Singapore with broader modules in their undergraduate programme and more career opportunities.
The Singapore University of Social Sciences (SUSS) and the upcoming Singapore College of Islamic Studies (SCIS) announced a tie-up on Dec 2 to jointly develop and implement modules for the new degree programme.
SCIS students will gain access to social sciences programmes through the move, opening doors to a wider range of careers in counselling, social work and related fields, while still maintaining their qualification as asatizah, or religious teachers, after graduation.
The new college, formally announced in 2024, is slated to welcome its first intake of students in 2028.
It will operate at a temporary location at the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (MUIS) campus in Bencoolen Street until the new Rochor campus is completed.
The Rochor site is next to the SUSS campus, which is also currently under development.
