This is the fourth year since the Forum of Religio-Scientific Discourse (FoRSD) was established by Kulliyyah of Science in 2008.  As an actual programme for the University Mission of "Islamisation and Integration", the forum aims to formulate an integrated body of knowledge and values in IIUM academic life. The basic objective of the forum is to create a healthy academic environment in the garden of knowledge and virtue, through gathering scholars and scientists from various disciplines to discuss issues related to science (e.g. research ethics, biomedical science and biotechnology) and religion (e.g. morals of akhlaq and adab).  The forum is also promoting the idea of conservation and sustainable use of natural resources for peaceful development in the human community.

At the moment, series of forum and talks are organised fortnightly on alternate Fridays, 11:00 am to 12:30 noon at Kulliyyah of Science.
