About The Program

Islamic Faith Chaplaincy is a GODSU program for spiritual care that focuses on providing support and guidance within the Islamic tradition. Chaplains in this program typically serve in diverse settings, including hospitals, hospices, schools, prisons, universities, correctional facilities, and the military. They offer spiritual counseling, prayer, and assistance to individuals, respecting the principles and teachings of Islam. Islamic Faith Chaplains work to meet the religious and emotional needs of Muslims in various life circumstances, collaborating with other professionals to ensure holistic care.

Islamic Faith Chaplaincy’s role is beyond crisis intervention, which also involves fostering a sense of spiritual well-being, helping individuals navigate challenges within the framework of Islamic ethics and values, and facilitating religious practices such as prayer and ritual observances. The course helps chaplains to be equipped with authentic Islamic knowledge. The chaplain needs to know how to lead the prayer. They need to know what is Fard (obligatory), what is Sunnah (what the Prophet (S) did, and what Mustahabb (recommended) etc. Islamic Faith Chaplains contribute to the overall well-being of individuals by offering culturally sensitive and faith-based support.

WHAT IS GODSU WORK-EXPERIENCE AND COMPETENCY MODEL-BASED EDUCATION?

It means that rather than tracking the time students spend in a classroom, which is all about the skills and comprehension that the student can display within a given time in the classroom, we want the student to utilize their knowledge, capitalize on their experience, and follow the best process of their own learning to fulfill purpose in the society within the shortest possible time at minimum cost. 

The students can use what they know to graduate faster through a work-experience and competency model-based E-Learning Education. It’s all about what the student knows, not how long the students have been in school.

If students can learn faster, spend more time on schoolwork, or lean on knowledge they already have from previous work or school experience, they can accelerate through courses. They can earn their degrees for about half of the cost of other universities.

They will pay tuition per 9 – month session not per course or credit. So when the students move faster through their courses, they also lower the cost.

Undergraduate Program: 5,000 – $10,000

Master’s Program: $40,000 -$80,000

Doctorate Program: $80,000 – $100,000

New Students can begin their program on the 1st of any month. So the students can start whenever they are ready, rather than rushing or waiting for fall or spring enrollment. 

Don’t wait any longer. Complete your application and get started on your journey today!

Once the student is admitted and enrolled into any of the programs, the student would be allowed to select the required courses based on the semester hours (60 – 110) and the course credits (1 -5).
