Abstract
In this chapter Bagguley and Hussain reflect upon what it means to be a ‘late-modern’ Muslim student in contemporary Britain. For Muslims at university there is both the late-modern liquid character of Islamic identities and the on-going securitisation of Islam and Muslims. It is argued that young Muslims both have ever greater opportunities to reflect on their Islamic identities, and are forced to choose how and where to locate themselves by the ever unfolding hegemonic securitisation of Islam. These themes are explored through how universities are increasingly required by to take on securitising roles in relation to their students through the new counter-terrorist legislation and programme known and Prevent.
