The bachelor’s program is to focus scientifically on religious, cultural and historical aspects of Islam.
The scientific success of Islamic studies will be reviewed by the university in three years.
Germany announced plans earlier this year to set up institutes for Islamic studies to train new generations of Muslim clerics and religious teachers more attuned to western society, and to exert subtle control over how the country’s growing Muslim population is taught about its faith.
The government has welcomed a proposal by its academic advisory council to create centers of Islamic theology at two or three state-run universities.
“The number of children and young people of Islamic faith in Germany is high and increasing,” according to German Education Minister Annette Schavan.
