PhD in Halal Science (Halal Management)

Jointly offered by the Faculty of Halal Science and Sustainable Tourism and its Halalan Thayyiban Research Centre, this PhD is built around an independent research project in halal management, with an appointed supervisor and co-supervisor guiding the candidate throughout the candidature. The research centres on how halal products and services are currently managed. The programme's own materials note that it goes beyond simply administering halal products, also applying principles of strategic planning, policy and standards under the halalan thayyiban framework across both local and international reaches of the halal industry. Teaching is offered in English or Malay. Entry normally calls for a relevant master's degree or equivalent recognised by the University Senate, together with English or Malay language proficiency matching the medium of study chosen.
