MA IRANIAN STUDIES
FACULTY OF WORLD STUDIES

CALL FOR APPLICATIONS

Faculty of World Studies is now accepting applications for MA Iranian Studies. This program is ONLY AVAILABLE to Non-Iranian candidates.

Master of Arts in Iranian Studies is an internationally recognized degree from the University of Tehran. It is an intensive two-year program consisting of rigorous course-work and research.

The Iranian Studies MA Program follows a cleverly-designed bi-lingual outline studying contemporary Iran. During the first and second semesters, most instructions will be conducted in English. However, as students improve their knowledge of Persian, some modules will be offered in Persian, particularly during the third semester. Students will have the option to write their dissertations in either Persian or English, but are highly encouraged to write in Persian.

Course themes include Iranian contemporary history, society and culture, ethnic groups and local traditions, media and arts, political economy, geopolitics and foreign policy, and Shi’a studies.
