...My year abroad – Brisbane, Australia 2005/2006 When I heard that we all had to do an obligatory study abroad for one year, there was no doubt in my mind, Australia, here I come! I’d always wanted to go to Australia and this was a great opportunity for me to do that, to fulfil one of my dreams. Preparing for my year abroad There were a lot of things that had to be arranged prior to my departure, things as selection of subjects, having them approved, finding a place to live, fill out all applications, applying for visa, insurance etc. It is important to keep that in mind, and to take care of everything in good time before departure. And also remember that you have to spend a lot of money even before you leave, for the plane ticket, bond for your apartment, school money, visa, insurance etc. I was quite surprised over the amount of money I had to spend on different things, I hadn’t thought of that. You don’t have to have accommodation before you arrive, but I wanted everything to be taken care of when I arrived. So I checked www.iec.no early, in April I think , to see if anyone wanted a housemate. Here, I found two Norwegian girls looking for a third, we started talking and I got the room. Now, I am located in a very modern, pretty, three-room apartment in Kangaroo Point, close to both the city and QUT. The apartment also comes with a shared pool and BBQ-facilities. I pay $130 ($1 = 5 NKr. approx.) pr. week, which is a reasonable price for a place like this. Prices vary...

E-mail: akhyar@fe.uii.ac.id Phone: +62 274 881546 Credit (SKS): 3 Prerequisites: Intermediate Accounting, or at least an Introduction to Accounting in conventional perspective. It is preferable that students have passed accounting theory. Consultation times: By appointment Class Duration Two and a half hours per week for 12 weeks One to one and a half hours of the time is used for lecture or seminar and the remainder for tutorial or small group work activities. Subject Overview Since the mid 20th century, there has been a serious effort within Muslim societies to apply fully the Islamic tenets in their daily lives. This includes the application of Islamic economic teachings, as discussed variously in many verses of the holy Qur’an, in the ahadith, as well as exemplified in the real life of prophet Muhammad (M.P.B.U.H) and his companions. The most vivid example of this effort can be seen in the establishment of Islamic financial institutions such as banks, insurance companies, capital markets, mutual funds and so forth, both in Muslim and non-Muslim countries. The proliferation and growth of Islamic banks particularly, both nationally and internationally, has been remarkable. Islamic banks now stand side by side with their conventional counterparts in more...
