CURRENT ROLE
Associate Professor Rane specialises in Islam-West relations in both national and international contexts. His teaching aims to promote mutual understanding and coexistence between Muslim and the Western people by producing graduates who can address related challenges and issues based on sound knowledge, analysis and critical thinking. His research has played a significant role in helping to constitute what is a relatively new field of study in Australia. His innovative capstone course, Muslim World Study Tour, takes students to such counties as Malaysia, Morocco, Oman, Spain and Turkey in order to provide the opportunity to engage first-hand with the diverse people, cultures and societies that shape Islamic civilisation.
