Established in 1978, Markaz has been a name not just of an Islamic University, but of a culture that the Muslims Community in India seems to be representing over the past three decades. As the term ‘Markaz’ itself literally denotes, it has gradually grown to become a ‘centre’ of social, cultural progress as well as educational excellence for the entire communities in India as a whole and those of Muslims in particular.
Markaz envisions being a world-class platform for education and innovation, imparting a kind of knowledge that would enable its students to realize their true potential and develop their life long intellectual growth in the respective fields. It aims to nurture a generation of students with a strong sense of public responsibility, a pioneering spirit and a refreshing capacity for change.
