| Abstract | The globally recognised framework aimed at fostering a sustainable future for all living beings is known as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These seventeen goals address challenges faced by both developed and developing nations, striving to enhance human well-being while safeguarding the environment. A fundamental objective of university education is to integrate sustainability principles across academic programs to support the achievement of these goals. This study examines the Islamic Studies curriculum of the Department of Religions at the University of Ilorin, assessing its relevance in advancing selected SDGs. A qualitative research approach with a descriptive case study design was employed, incorporating a review of the Islamic Studies curriculum, semi-structured interviews with faculty members, curriculum developers, and students, as well as structured questionnaires distributed to students and lecturers for data collection and analysis. The research findings indicate that the Islamic Studies curriculum provides students with essential knowledge for shaping a sustainable future. The study further recommends expanding the curriculum to encompass critical areas such as climate change, industrialization, and well-being to enhance its impact. Keywords: Curriculum, Islamic Studies, Sustainable Development, Goals |
