Jobs no issue for Islamic institute pupils
Print Edition
Though Maet Abdulla, a Xinjiang Islamic Institute student, has only two months left in his bachelor studies, he is not worried about his job prospects.
The 25-year-old from Hotan in the southern part of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region said he could easily land a job at mosques upon graduation.
鈥淎 job at the local ethnic and religious affairs administration also sounds good,鈥 he said.
Five years ago when Abdulla finished high school, he entered the institute in Urumqi, the regional capital of Xinjiang.
Founded in 1983, the institute confers bachelor and junior college degrees on students and provides non-degree training for serving religious personnel. It offers courses in Mandarin, Uygur and Arabic languages.
Students take courses in religious knowledge, national law, culture and history.
In September 2017, a new campus, 5.7 times the size of the old one in downtown Urumqi, was put to use in the suburbs of the capital. The campus cost 279 million yuan (US$41 million).
With a spacious worship hall, a stadium and a football court, it can accommodate 1,100 students. Government grants for food and lodging have also increased, said Abdurekhip Tumniyaz, institute director.
Izhat, a student from Ili, is most glad about the new sports facilities. 鈥淚n our spare time, we like to play football and basketball to relax,鈥 he said.
Teacher Mamat Abla has just returned from his exchange scholarship in Egypt. In two months, 24 students in his class will graduate and serve the public.
