In this lecture, our panel of speakers will address the historical aspects, methodological approaches, main challenges and future perspectives of Islamic Studies. The following questions will be discussed:

1. How was “Islamic Studies”, as a distinct scholarly discipline, born and developed later as a (post)graduate specialization at universities inside and outside the Muslim world?   
2. What are the key similarities/differences in framing and approaching “Islamic Studies” between various universities worldwide?
3. How should we move forward by taking the best and avoiding the worst of the historical experiences?
