The Information Technology Huffaz Foundation Programme is a programme capable of producing prospective students who have a balanced knowledge between Al-Quran Tahfiz education with current technological knowledge and skills based on ICT. This programme will benefit the group of Tahfiz students in Malaysia and can provide a good alternative for students from the background of Islamic Studies and Al-Quran Tahfiz to venture into the fields of ICT.

Al-Quran skills also give additional values to jobs related to ICT/4IR. The huffaz group has a special position due to their advantages, abilities and sacrifices in memorising Al-Quran al-Karim. Based on the previous research, it was found that the practice of memorising the Al-Quran among Tahfiz students had a positive and encouraging effect on the improvement of their academic achievement. Thus, it adds to the justification to encourage this group of students to pursue in the Tahfiz Foundation Programme because they have a high intellectual potential to master the important fields of IT.

The goals of this programme are to:-

1. Produce quality students who meet the entry requirements for the admission into undergraduate programmes in the fields of science and technology at UMK, specifically in the fields of Information & Communication Technology.
2. Develop students who have noble character with the knowledge and skills of Tahfiz Al-Quran as well as knowledgeable, creative and skilled towards producing technopreneurs who have an integrated sense of self.
