The Islamization of Mathematics follows from the Islamic Mathematics Research Program (IMRP), which is a component of the Islamic Science Research Program (ISRP) sketched out in my "Three Meanings of Islamic Science: Toward Operationalizing Islamization of Science," in Islam & Science (Summer 2007), 23-52; and "Islamic Science as a Scientific Research Program: Conceptual and Pragmatic Issues," in Islam & Science (Summer 2005), 93-101.
Featuring studies of undergraduate science research programs from a variety of institutions around the country, it provides detailed qualitative and quantitative descriptions of the nature and benefits to college students of participating in research; descriptions of the post baccalaureate outcomes of such participation; and faculty and mentors' perspectives on students' gains, gender differences, and drawing students into science.

This acumen, once attained, will enable them to undertake the arduous theoretical and empirical work of fleshing out the direction and content of aspects of the Islamic science Research Program applicable to their specializations or particular areas of research.
He also serves as a member of the NASA Carbon Cycle and Ecosystems Management Operations Working Group within the agency's Earth Science Research Program.
The articulation of this Islamic Science research program, conceived thus, necessarily requires critical, creative engagement at a deep theoretical level with modern science since it is the default science for which Islamic Science is proffered as the more viable alternative, at least for Muslims if not for humanity at large.
