Abstract


Medical and Health Sciences based on natural sciences, especially empirical biomedical sciences; are often difficult to integrate with Islamic knowledge based on metaphysics and religious morality. The curriculum and science of Medicine and Health adopted from the secular western world do not make religious content a part of the curriculum for Medical and Health Sciences Education. The Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences (FKIK) Muhammadiyah University (Unismuh) Makassar as the provider of medical education and health sciences has a mandate to include Islamic content in the curriculum of medical education and health sciences that they manage. This paper maps out Islamic content in the FKIK curriculum at Unismuh Makassar using a normative study approach. Islamic teaching materials in the medical and health education curriculum at FKIK Unismuh Makassar can be mapped into three types, namely: (1) generic-Islamic topics; (2) Islamic professional ethics; (3) integrated Islamic-Medicine skills. The results of this study can assist medical and health education providers in integrating Islamic content into their educational curriculum.
