They recognized that qualified professionals, who are also guided by ethical values, are essential for sustainable growth, fostering development that integrates physical, intellectual, and spiritual dimensions. Since the 1980s, the Malaysian government has prioritized balanced development and emphasized human capital as the cornerstone of national progress.<\/p>\n<p>From its inception, IIUM, and especially KENMS, has been committed to integrating knowledge and fostering human capital, striving to educate individuals who can better serve the nation, the ummah, and humanity.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Over the past 30 years, KENMS has been instrumental in teaching economics, business studies, finances, and accounting, aligning with IIUM&#8217;s vision and mission. Initially offering undergraduate programs, KENMS now provides a comprehensive range of graduate and postgraduate programs to meet the needs of both the private and public sectors, domestically and internationally. Additionally, research, training, and consultancy activities have been integral to KENMS&#8217;s agenda. In July 2007, an Islamic Economics Unit was established with a coordinator and a working committee that has served as a &#8216;pro-tem committee&#8217; for the creation of this proposed Centre.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-cad16fa elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"cad16fa\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7a3c2ca\" data-id=\"7a3c2ca\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b99b2a1 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"b99b2a1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-d35c0fc elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"d35c0fc\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8a4cbe9\" data-id=\"8a4cbe9\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b4e0932 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b4e0932\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">THE RATIONALE FOR THE CENTRE<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ed41b39 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ed41b39\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d4fca9f\" data-id=\"d4fca9f\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d1234c6 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d1234c6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-size: 15px;letter-spacing: 0px\">In line with the research goals of IIUM and in order to meet the increased demand for expertise in research, training, and consultancy in areas of economics and related fields, as well as economic and development-related policy studies, there is a need to establish a dedicated, formal entity that can meet this demand at both the national and international levels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>KENMS, along with the four departments of Economics, Business Administration, Accounting, and Finance, is devoted to teaching at both the undergraduate and post-graduate levels. In addition to teaching, the four departments under the Kulliyyah are also involved in administrative functions which provide further constraints to the existing responsibilities. The establishment of this dedicated entity will serve as a more effective link to take up research, training, and consultancy activities, hence expanding the contribution of KENMS to a wider audience in one of the designated niche areas of IIUM, i.e., Islamic economics and related fields. Furthermore, the Centre will assist the nation in producing and training professionals and supporting research and consultancy that integrate ethics and economics based on the vision and mission of IIUM.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section
