Each year MMERC conducts a highly competitive entrance test with set of objective type questionnaires- at the end of the academic year (by the month of Rjabul Murajjab) of Darul Uloom Deoband. Out of the several hundreds who face the test for every batch this year only 65 students will be enrolled in MMERC or institutions affiliated to it on merit basis. The test divides in two phases— oral and written covering five subjects as a whole— Arabic Language & Literature, Hadith, Fiqh, Tafseer and general knowledge followed by interview.
M. Burhanuddin Qasmi, director MMERC, Mumbai and his colleagues from Gujarat and Assam will visit Deoband to conduct the exams.
The MMERC has entered in the sixteenth successful year of its novel concept in the academia- to teach English language with other modern subjects of the age to the fresh Ulama— the madrasa graduates. The institution introduced a two-year course, ‘Diploma in English Language and Literature’ (DELL) to educate the Ulama in a completely new environment and equip them with subjects hitherto unknown to them such as English language, Computer & Internet, Comparative study of religions, history, Political science, Journalism and other general sciences.
MMERC renders educational services for free. It also provides the students with basic necessities like lodging, food etc. In addition to its own trained teaching faculties the institution hires the services of the accomplished faculties for the above-mentioned subjects with an aim to help the students demonstrate their skilful articulation of thoughts and presentations about their religion— Islam and to boost their confidence in order to cope with the modern world order and ultimately serve the nation with devotion.
