There are Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM) and International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) amongst the students of Islamic studies. The main objectives of this study are to identify the student’s perception on Science of Qur’an course, student’s perception on the Science of Qur’an’s course outline, the reference book or syllabus that are used in the class as well as student’s prospect towards Science of Qur’an course. The findings indicated positive perception amongst the students on Science of Qur’an course as it is easy to understand, the course outline that set up by faculty is appropriate as well as most of them strongly agree that this course should be continued in the future. However, students have some problems as do not have sufficient time given for them to spend on the course outline and the reference books or syllabus that are used in class do not have adequate information to refer to. As a result, some students suggested the faculty to use bilingual reference books or syllabus in class. This study highlighted the importance of Science of Qur’an to be learnt since at the young age towards better improvement. ER -
