Tehran (history, Now, Pic)

[donsaeid]

Altitude between 1,200 and 1,700 meters.

Mehrabad Airport to the west of city.

Railway: European link through Tabriz and Istanbul, internal lines to Mashad, Yazd and Khoramshar.

Regular coach services in all directions.

Nearly 12 Million people live in Tehran Bozorg in contrast to two hundred thousand in 1920.

Tehran is immense and proliferates like a coral reef, but in an orderly manner. Nine-tenths of the built up area is in square blocks with absolutely straight boulevards. The visitor who has been away for a while can no longer find the way around the city. New roads link the western part of the city to the northern quarters. Towering buildings have been erected right and left. Large stores, super-markets, self-service shops have been opened, public buildings, government departments and monuments have been built and an array of giant cranes show the development fever.


Tehran is pleasant, it derives its originality from its dry climate, always cool in the evening, its pure sky, the nearness of the mountains, its numerous parks and gardens where flowers blossom throughout the year, the alleys of young plan-trees in the avenues or even smaller streets, the water which runs down from the upper city along deep and wide gutters which look like small rivers during spring.


Daring modern buildings, erected during the past few years, give, despite their frequently dry architecture, an impression of what tehran's beauty will be in the year 2000.


The Golestan (Rose Garden) Palace was the Qajars' royal residence. Its garden is an oasis of coolness and silence in the heart of the city. The main building, architecturally unpretentious, houses a museum with objects from the Qajar period in the overloaded and pompous style of last century. In the Golestan garden, a one-story pavilion to the right and slightly behind the entrance, shelters one of the best organized museums in Tehran. Do not be discouraged by its scientific title. It contains about thirty show-cases presenting everything which makes up the basic originality of Iranian life in the various provinces of the country.


The Capital a veritable boom town under going intense activity, continues to expand according to a rational plan in a checkered pattern. Modern building rise up beside 19th century houses.


Tehran became a capital in the 19th century. Its more ancient monuments bear the marks of that period when everywhere in the world, taste had degenerated. Furthermore, its rapid growth explains the proliferations of houses without any style, fortunately laid out in square blocks, but anonymous, without harmony, grey, with never a flower on their window-sills. The baroque and pretentious appearance of certain facades, particularly banks, built twenty or thirty years ago, do nothing to improve the city's appearance.



The Alborz range separates the central plateau front the lush Caspian littoral, the only part of the country where the rainfall is plentiful. The highest peak in the country, Mt. Damavand, is an extinct volcano covered in snow for most of the year.


Mount Damavand, the highest mountain in Iran, has for centuries, attracted mountaineers, nomads and legends to its snow-covered slopes. The epic hero Feraydun wrestled and defeated the evil giant Zahhak, chaining him to a cave on the mountain peak. Villagers living near the base of the volcano still remark that Dahhak is straining to be free at the first signs of smoke or rumbling often heard deep within the mountain. On a clear day, the 18,550 foot cone is visible from Tehran, fifty miles away.


In winter, the mountain hotels and ski-clubs at Shemshak, Shahrestanak and Dizine are full several days a week. Some expert skiers people consider the snow quality in northen tehran to be one of the best in the world.


Dozen of small houses with zinc roofs nestle among the bushes. Some are private dwellings, but most are coffee-houses. Mountain streams run among the tables. But everyone does not sit around a table, many of the customers prefer the ancient-style comfort of low divans covered with old carpets. Delicious "kababs" are peacefully consumed accompanied by boling hot tea and Pepsi-Cola sodas.

Tehran Persian: تهران, also transliterated as Teheran or Tehrān), population 7,160,094 (metropolitan: 14,000,000), and a land area of 254 square miles, is the capital city of Iran and the center of Tehran Province. Tehran is located at 35°40′N 51°25′E.

More than half of the country's industry is based there. Industries include the manufacturing of cars, electronics and electrical equipment, military weaponry, textiles, sugar, cement, and chemical products. It is also a leading center for the sale of carpets and furniture. There is an oil refinery nearby.

Tehran is a sprawling city at the foot of the Alborz mountain range with an immense network of highways unparalleled in western Asia. It is also the hub of the country's railway network. The city has numerous large museums, art centers, palace complexes and cultural centers.

In addition to Persians, there is a population of Azeris in Tehran, as well as other ethnicities including Armenian, Assyrian, Kurdish and Jewish communities. 98.3% of Tehran's residents speak Persian. The city is dotted with mosques, and there are a number of churches and synagogues. The word Tehran in Persian means "warm mountain slope" (دامنه گرم).

History

Excavations place the existence of settlements in Tehran as far back as 6000 BC. Tehran was well known as a village in the 9th century, but was less well-known than the city of Rages which was flourishing nearby in the pre-Mongol era. In the 13th century, following the destruction of Rages by Mongols, many of its inhabitants fled to Tehran. In some sources of the Mongol era the city is mentioned as "Rages's Tehran" (طهرانِ ری). The city is later mentioned in Hamdollah Mostowfi's Nezhat ol-Gholoob (written in 1340) as a famous village.

No one knows for sure how the city got its name, but one accepted explanation is that Tehran means "a warm place", as opposed to "a cool place", called Shemiran - a cooler district in northern Tehran. Don Ruy Gonzáles de Clavijo, a Castilian ambassador, was probably the first European to visit Tehran, stopping in July 1404, while on a journey to Samarkand (now in Uzbekistan) and the Mongol capital at the time. At this time, the city of Tehran was unwalled.

Tehran became a residence of the Safavid rulers in the 17th century. Tahmasp I built a bazaar and a wall around the city, but it somewhat fell out of favour after Abbas I turned sick when he was passing the city to go to a war with the Uzbeks.

In the early 18th century, Karim Khan Zand ordered a palace, a harem, and a government office to be built in Tehran, possibly to declare the city his capital, but later moved his government to Shiraz. Tehran finally became the capital of Persia in 1795, when the Qajar king Agha Mohammad Khan was crowned in the city. It remains the capital to this day.

During World War II, British and Soviet troops entered the city. Tehran was the site of the Teheran Conference in 1943, attended by US President Franklin D. Roosevelt, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, and Soviet Premier Joseph Stalin.

Following the war, the city's older landmarks suffered under the rule of Mohammad Reza Shah. The shah believed that ancient buildings such as large parts of the Golestan Palace, Takieh-ye Dowlat, The Toopkhooneh Square (pictured to the right), and others should not be part of a modern city. They were systematically destroyed and modern 1950s and 1960s buildings were built in their place. The decision to carry this out is presently largely seen as a foolish mistake that hurt the visual fabric of the city beyond repair.

On September 8, 1978, demonstrations against the shah led to riots. The army reportedly opened fire on the demonstrating mob. Martial law was installed in the wake of the ensuing revolution, from 1978-80.

During the 1980-88 Iran-Iraq War, Tehran was the scene of repeated Scud missile attacks and air strikes against random residential and industrial targets within the city, resulting in thousands of civilian casualties.


Modern Tehran

The Azadi Tower is the first landmark visitors come across when arriving from the Mehrabad International Airport. The tower has become an icon for Tehran and a national symbol of Iran.

Tehran suffers from extremely serious traffic congestion and pollution problems. Respiratory ailments such as asthma are very common. Tehran has become so congested over the past decade that the government has considered moving the nation's capital to another city to alleviate these problems and help de-centralize the economy and population. But because Iran's economy and politics are so centralized, millions have little choice but to live and work in Tehran.

The Peacock Throne of the Persian Shahs can be found in Tehran's Golestan Palace. Some of the important museums are National Museum of Iran, Sa'dabad Palaces Complex, Glassware and Ceramics Museum of Iran, The Carpet Museum of Iran, Tehran's Underglass painting Museum, and Niavaran Palace Complex. The Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art is also appealing to many because it features the works of great artists such as Van Gogh, Pablo Picasso and Andy Warhol.

The huge Tehran International Fair organises many expositions. Its book expositions are especially popular. Tehran is also the seat of Iran's Parliament (the Majles). And Tehran is also home to the world's fourth tallest free standing structure, the Milad Tower.

Economy

About 30% of Iran’s public-sector workforce and 45% of large industrial firms are located in Tehran and almost half of these workers work for the government. Most of the remainder of workers are factory workers, shopkeepers, labourers, and transport workers. Few foreign companies operate in Tehran because of the Islamic government and its poor relations with the west. But before the Islamic revolution many western companies were active in this region. Today many modern industries of this city include the manufacturing of cars, electronics and electrical equipment, weaponry, textiles, sugar, cement, and chemical products. It is also a leading center for the sale of carpets and furniture. There is an oil refinery nearby. The city has two airports, including Mehrabad International Airport,and Imam Khomeini International Airport. Tehran relies heavily on private cars, buses, motorcycles, and taxis, and is one of the most car-dependent cities in the world. Air pollution from vehicle emissions is a very big problem, and since 1979 the government of Iran has restricted private cars from entering the city center during peak traffic hours. It has also encouraged taxis and buses to convert from petrol engines to engines that use compressed natural gas. The Tehran Stock Exchange which is a full member of the FIBV and a founding member of the Federation of Euro-Asian Stock Exchanges, was one of the world's best performing stock exchanges in recent years.

Transportation

In 2001 a metro system that had been in planning since the 1970s opened the first two of seven envisaged lines -- even though the city is prone to earthquakes. Work has been slow and coverage remains very limited. Development of the Tehran metro system had been interrupted by the Islamic Revolution and the Iran-Iraq War. Problems arising from the late completion of the metro led to buses taking on the role of the metro lines, serving mainly long distance routes. Taxis filled the void for local journeys. The taxis only drive on main roads, and only within the local area, so it can be necessary to take several taxis to get to one's final destination. This has all led to extreme congestion and air pollution within the city.

Tehran is served by Mehrabad International Airport, the old airport which doubles as a military base located in the western part of the city, and Imam Khomeini International Airport, 50 kilometers south, which handles flights from the Persian Gulf but which will eventually handle all international flights. The new airport is overdue and over budget, and Britain and Australia have warned their nationals not to use it because of safety concerns.

Tehran also has a central train station with connecting services round the clock to various cities in the country. There are four bus terminals that also provide connections at low fares. These are the South, East, West, and Bei-haghi Park-Drive Terminals.

While the center of the city houses the government ministries and headquarters, the commercial centers are more located toward Valiasr Street, Taleghani Ave, and Beheshti Ave. further north. Although administratively separate, Rey, Shemiran, and Karaj are often considered part of the larger Tehran metropolitan area.

Sports

Tehran was the first city in the Middle East to host the Asian Games. The 7th Asian Summer Games in 1974, was held with the participation of 2363 athletes and officials from 25 countries.

Tehran is also the site of Iran's national football stadium on Azadi Sport Complex with 100,000 seating capacity. Many of the top matches of Iran's Premier League are held here. In 2005, FIFA ordered Iran to limit spectators allowed into Azadi stadium because of a fatal crush and inadequate safety procedures. Other stadiums in Tehran are Shahid Dastgerdi Stadium, Takhti Stadium, and Shahid Shirudi Stadium, among others.

Within 10 minutes of driving distance from Tehran lies a ski resort. Tochal is the world's fifth highest ski resort at over 3730m at its highest 7th station. The resort was completed in 1976 shortly before the overthrow of the Shah.

Here, one must first ride the eight km (five mile) long gondola lift which covers a huge vertical. The 7th station has three slopes. The resort's longest slope is the south side U shaped slope which goes from the 7th station to 5th station. The other two slopes are located on the north side of the 7th station. Here, there are two parallel chair ski lifts that go up to 3900m near Tochal's peak (at 4000m), rising higher than the gondola 7th station station. This altitude is higher than any of the European resorts.

From the Tochal peak, one has a spectacular view of the Alborz range, including the 5671 metre (18606 ft) high Mt. Damavand, a dormant volcano.

At the bottom of the lifts in a valley behind the Tochal peak is Tochal hotel, located at 3500m altitude. From there a T lift takes skiers up the 3800 metres of Shahneshin peak, where the third slope of Tochal is.

Tochal 7th station has skiing eight months of the year. But there are also some glaciers and year-round snow fields near Tehran where skiing began in 1938, thanks to the efforts of two German railway engineers. Today, 12 ski resorts operate in Iran, but the most famous are Tochal, Dizin, and Shemshak, all within one to three hours of Tehran.

Tehran: Covering an area of 1500 sq. kms, Tehran is situated in the north-central part of Iran, on the slope of the Alborz Mountain. As the national capital it is the most populated city in Iran and the center of cultural, economical, political and social activities. It is about 1200 meters above sea level and enjoys a mild climate. Although the word Tehran can be found even in some books dating back to the 10th century, it was but a village containing numerous gardens in the distant past. Its importance began to increase in the Safavid period (1501-1736). Shah Tehmasp, the king of Iran from 1524 to 1576, was fascinated by the climate of Tehran, as a result of which many buildings including caravansaries were founded. He also built many towers around the city. In the reign of agha Mohammad Khan, the founder of the Qajar dynasty (1776-1925), when Tehran was chosen as the capital of Iran, it enjoyed a boom. The building founded by Naser od-Din, shah of Iran (1848-1896) gave it a high position among the other cities. A ditch was dug around the city to repel attacks on it, twelve gates were built as the approaches to the city, and a large square, now called Tupkhneh and the buildings around were founded. After the Qajar period, two architectural trends developed: an imitation of Western styles that had little relevance to Tehran's climate and an attempt to revive indigenous designs. The latter trend has been reinforced after the Islamic Revolution. The population of Tehran has had a boom in the last decades, as a result of which urban development has not been smooth. In the recent years the municipality of Tehran has taken great measures to increase the number of recreational facilities, including park, stadiums, theaters,etc

Background

University of Tehran, is the oldest and largest scientific, educational and research center of the country which is called the “Mother University” and the “Symbol of higher education of the country”. This scientific center is the entering gate of Iran into the new civilization. It is also considered as one of the pioneers of the society in important scientific, cultural, political and social affairs. It is such that besides its old role in political and social changes of the country, its remarkable impact in the scientific-cultural development of the society is also undeniable. With regard to the critical mission and heavy responsibility towards the country and the exalted Iranian nation as well and also for the purpose of flourishing the potential talents of the country at the high level of human knowledge and adapting its programs with the necessities and facilities of the country, this university makes efforts to play a specific role in the construction of the country and achieve the glorious scientific –industrial dynamic and sustainable peaks.

The valuable role of the faculty members of the University in scientific and research development of the country and training the specialized and qualified forces to serve the Islamic Iran, along with the global new advancements is considerable. Enjoying the specific international scientific, cultural and political position, besides training the necessary specialized human forces in different fields and sectors , has had a considerable impact in flourishing ideas and preparing grounds for political and social moves . Also having active students’ institutions and their impact on political and social changes has been unique.

The history of the establishment of University in Iran dates back to the year 1851 and the establishment of Darolfonoon – which was founded as a result of the efforts of Mirza Taghi Khan Amir Kabir, aiming at training and teaching Iranian experts on many fields of sciences. In the year 1928, Professor Mahmood Hesabi proposed the subject of running a center which could be comprehensive or cover most of the sciences to (Ali Asghar Hekmat) the then Minister of Culture.

In January 1933, during the then cabinet meeting, the subject of Tehran’s development, the beauty and glory of the buildings, beautiful mansions and palaces were discussed. On one side, the late Foroghi, who was the prime minister, and on the other side, the other ministers were admiring the advancements of the city. Riding to full gallop in admiring, many of them were excessively trying only to please the king.

In the middle of this situation, keeping an eye on the advancement of the capital, the late Ali Asghar Hekmat, being also the acting minister of the Ministry of Education stated the following words cautiously:

“ Of course, there is no doubt on the thriving state and the glory of the capital, but the only obvious deficiency is that this city has no “ university”. It is a pity that this city lags far behind other great countries of the world”. These valuable words had a profound impact on everyone and they accepted the idea. Thus having allocated an initial budget of 250,000 Tomans, the Ministry of Education was authorized to find a suitable land for the establishment of the University and take necessary measures to construct the building as soon as possible.

Immediately, Ali Asghar Hekmat in collaboration and consultation with Andre Gaudar, a French skillful architect- who was serving the Ministry of Education as an engineer, began to find a good location for the University. Following a series of searches in the abundant available buildings, gardens and lands around Tehran, Jalaliyeh garden was selected for the construction of the University of Tehran. It is worth mentioning that on those days, unlike today in which finding an appropriate land to establish a great university in Tehran is almost impossible, there were many land owner who not only did not obstinate from selling their lands, but also they were so eager to deliver their properties to these institutions which surely could bring about huge profits. For this reason some of the owners of Behjatabad lands had attracted the attention of then finance minister to buy their territories for the establishment of the University. Whereas, according to Mousier Godar, their premises [Behjatabad] were narrow and the position of those lands was in the state of flood absorbing. Indeed in no ways, they were suitable to establish the University of Tehran.

Despite this, the late Davar Rojhan insisted on purchasing Behjatabad territories. He could attract the positive views of most of the members. Finally the officials selected Behajatabad. At this time, when Ali Asghar Hekmat was witnessing the event in a mood of broken-heart and disappointed, Reza Shah arrived. Hearing the subject, in his own specific bully manner, he changed the situation and said,“ Do select Jalaliyeh garden. Behjatabad is in no way suitable. Its premise is so small and its lands are in the state of flood-absorption “. The officials had no way but to accept it.

Jalaliyeh garden was located in the north of the then Tehran between Amirabad village and the northern trench of Tehran. This beautiful garden, full of old fruitful, orchard and other kinds of trees was founded in about 1300 after Hegira in the final years of Naserol-din Shah, Qajar’s government by the order of prince Jalalodoleh. At that time, a Turkish businessman owned it whose name was Haj Rahim Aqaye Etehadiyeh Tabrizi. Anyway, that businessman sold Jalaliyeh garden in lieu of 5 Rials for per meter and totally for 100,000 Tomans. Then Monsieur Godar was commissioned to determine the limits of the land, set up the rails, design and execute its constructional operations. At the same time, on February 3, 1934, in the presence of the governmental officials, the memorial plaque of University establishment was placed in a place where it is now the southern stairs of the Faculty of Medicine.

The same French architect also undertook the designing of the University campus. First, he presented the design of the surrounding streets and interior side of the University campus. After confirmation, on February 3, 1934, the executive operation was started by planting shady, grand and young plane trees in the margins of the streets. Now those thin twigs have a life as long as the history of the university and they are 70 years of age.

At the beginning of the establishment, the branches of the University which were then named as faculties were as follows:



>> Faculty of Theology
>> Faculty of Science
>> Faculty of Literature, Philosophy and Educational Science
>> Faculty of Medicine
>> Faculty of Techniques and Engineering
>> Faculty of Law , Political and Economic Science

Other faculties were founded as following:

>> Fine Arts( 1941 )
>> Veterinary Medicine( 1943 )
>> Agriculture( 1945 )
>> Business Administration( 1954)
>> Education ( 1954 )
>> Natural Resources(1963 )
>> Economics (1970 )
>> Foreign Languages (1989 )
>> Environmental Studies (1992)

In 1992 the faculties of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmacology became separated from UT and composed the Tehran University of Medical Sciences.

At present it includes about 40 faculties, complexes, institutes , research and educational centers. (17 faculties, 2 higher educational complexes, 4 educational center or institutes, 14 research institutes and 3 information services institute).University of Tehran consists of six campuses:

>> Main Campus ( Enghelab Ave. , Tehran )
>> North Kargar Campus ( Tehran )
>> Karaj Campus
>> Varamin Campus
>> Qom Campus
>> Choka Campus

Besides scientific centers, treasures and different cultural , welfare and treatment centers such as :

>> Moqadam Museum
>> Negarestan Garden
>> Students Dormitories Complex
>> Center for Health and Treatment
and also Khazar Abad Cultural-Recreational complex are offering services to the society.

The main part of the University is located at the center of the large Tehran. Some of the faculties and research centers are also located in Karaj, Qom, Pakdasht, Sari and Kheyrood Kenar. The University has 1500 faculty members. The number of the non-educational cadre of this university is 3500. At present this University admits students through national entrance exam in 111 B.A./B.S. degree programs, 177 M.A./M.S. degree programs and 156 Ph.D. degree programs . The educational capacity of this university is about 32 thousands students. Every year, a considerable number of foreign students pursue their studies in the University of Tehran. At present, within the format of scholarship, 340 foreign students are studying at the University.

The official emblem of the University of Tehran: a symbol as old as Iranian history

The motif being used as the official emblem of the University of Tehran has a long history in industrial projects that enjoy a great position in ancient Iranian culture.

The emblem of the University of Tehran, which was designed by Dr. Mohsen Moghadam, a late faculty member of the Faculty of Fine Arts is based on an image, which can be found in the stucco relief and seals of the Sasanid period. In this case, it is a copy from a stucco relief discovered in the city of Taysafun [Ctesiphon].

[donsaeid]

The motif was also used as a brand on the cattle by the tribes who were settling in Iran. This was a seal, or tomqâ. Generally, this seal symbolized ownership of something. In the Sasanid period, these seals were used in the stucco relief, coins and silver utensils as a family brand. Since the alphabet of Sasanid Pahlavi’s script was used in these badges, they have the nature of a monogram as well.

The emblem of the University of Tehran has been modeled after a stucco relief being discovered in Taysafun whose original can be found on Sasanid palaces in Damiqan. In this case, and in similar cases of Sasanid seals, the motif is placed between two decorated wings (which can be eagles’ wings). We can also find these motifs in other images of this period, such as in royal crowns, particularly at the end of the Sasanid period. Crowns with these seals have been called “two-feather crowns” in Shahnameh, an epic poetry by Ferdowsi , the Iranian great poet.

Concerning the Taysafun emblem, the motif between the wings was made by combining Pahlavi scripts. Some scholars have tried to read these images. The Tasyafun script is in the form of “Afzoot” (Amrood), which means plentiful and increasing. It has also been read as “Ilan [‘yp’n]” (Iran), and also as “’w” for the word “ ‘ wrmzad”, which is another version of Urmazd or merely the world of Hormazeh and Hormoz. The University of Tehran follows the Sasanid motif by using the two words “University of Tehran” between the decorative wings. The decorative margins of tiny circles were also used as a decorative element, in particular on coins of the Achaemenid period, as well as on Sasanid coins, seals and stucco reliefs.

According to Dr. Mozafar Bakhtiyar, faculty member of the Faculty of Literature and Humanities, the University of Tehran, some changes were incorporated into the emblem of the University of Tehran at the time of the presidency of Dr. Jahanshah Saleh. The emblem, like some western seals, was placed inside a frame in the form of a Roman shield. Then came the title “University of Tehran” in Latin and the saying “Mayasay Ze Amukhtan Yek Zaman” (Never give up learning) was added to it. This emblem did not harmonize with the original Iranian image; in addition, it limited the broad range of objectives and activities implied in the motto “Never give up learning,” only to learning. Indeed it inadequately depicted the important mission of the university. In about 1971, some graphical changes were made to the main image of the emblem and this emblem continued to be used for sometime. In order to maintain the historical continuity of the old motif, the same motif was remodeled and continues to be used.

The main entrance gate of the University of Tehran, the symbol of science and wisdom


There is no doubt that the international position of the University of Tehran has brought about global fame, even to its main entrance gate. This historical monument, in addition to being known as the symbol of science, wisdom and joyful student life under the institution of University of Tehran also stands for one of the most famous, reputable universities in the world. Through this culturally symbolic monument, with its intricate engineering design, the University of Tehran conveys its special spiritual, scientific and cultural message to its addressees and observers.

Some believe that the design of the main entrance gate of the University is taken from the image of two birds that have opened their wings to ascend above the land. Science and knowledge have also been compared to two wings by which one can enter the university and, in reinforcing these wings with education, to exit the university with stronger wings that will enable graduates to stand over their society and maintain it.

Other people think that it is like a book open to readers, which indicates the value of reading and research. But no complete data has been found on the original idea, the history and method of construction of it.

According to some scholars, in 1966-7, by the order of the then-president of the University, a design competition was announced. Out of students designs submitted, that of a student by the name of Kurush Farzami of the Faculty of Fine Arts, was selected as the winning design. The execution of the design was given to a Swiss contractor. But due to respective shortages, the contractor was asked to continue only to the stage of footing the forms. That phase was then undertaken and completed by the Iranian contractor Armeh Company. According to the last financial standing of Armeh Company, the cost of the execution of the plan was twenty-four thousands and five hundred Tomans. The date of construction of the entrance gate is known to be about 1966-7, but no document was found about it in the archive of the University of Tehran up to the year 1969. There are also some photos of the main entrance gate of the University of Tehran printed in the Journal of Architecture Art, No. 2 (August/September 1969). Under the photos, there is the name of the designer and engineers of the work. (This source also mentions the name of Kurush Farzami as the designer and Simon Serkisian as the engineer). In addition, a photo of the main entrance gate is printed in the Catalogue of the University of Tehran in 1972.

Historical Events



The great and magnificent glories of the Iranian history of civilization and culture indicate the existence of the centers of knowledge, science and research in all kinds of sciences. Centers such as ( Vansibin School) and (Jondi Shapour School) in Khoozestan province which was founded in 530 in the order of Khosrow Anoshiravan and lasted up to Abbasi period confirms this claim.



Also the scholars of the Islamic period such as Avicenna, Razi, Biruni, etc in enhancing the thought and elevation of the position of human society’s characters are known at global level.



From Safavid period, the transfer of the principles of new sciences from Europe into Iran began. Then the first new school began its activity in 1833 in Urumiyeh. Also in the year 1851, the first governmental school by the name of Darolfonoon was established offering the following fields of study: Engineering, pharmacology, medicine and surgery, artillery, infantry, cavalry and mining.



With some changes, Darolfonoon was renamed as Central Teacher Training House in 1917 with two levels of elementary and advanced. The elementary level was planned to train teachers for the elementary schools and the advanced level was to train instructors of high schools. Later on, these two formed the Elementary Teacher’s College and Higher Teacher’s College. ( 1933). It is worth mentioning that there were some other schools in line with these schools such as Political School, Medicine School, Agriculture School,….

[donsaeid]

In 1933, the idea of establishing a comprehensive center or a center which could cover basic higher schools was realized and the law of establishment of the University was approved by the National Consultative Parliament in May 29, 1934.

It is worth remarking that concurrent with the beginning of the constructional operations and the creation of the physical space of the university, efforts were made to develop its regular organization, which was possible only within the framework of a legal act. So, a commission consisting of the known and eminent dignitaries of that age was formed to deal with this important issue. The members of the mentioned commission were the essence and products of different intellectual and cultural schools including the representatives of traditional and modern schools. What they presented as the draft of the bill was indeed the result of the Iranian old scientific and educational traditions ranging from Jondishapour to Darlolfonoon to the new and modern European schools. A glance at the list of the members of the commission in the following lines proves this claim:

1. Haj Seyed Nasrollah Taghavi, Professor at Sepahsalar School

2. Badiolzaman Foroozanfar, A graduate of Khorasan seminaries

3. Gholamhossein Rahnama, Professor of mathematics at Darolfonnon

4. Mirza Ali Akbar Dehkhoda, Dean of the School of Laws

5. Dr. Isa Sedigh, A graduate of European and American universities

6. Dr. Reza Zadeh Shafagh, A graduate of the University of Berlin

7. Dr. Amir Aalam, A graduate of medicine from the University of Lyon, France

8. Dr. Loghman ol dolleh Adham, Dean of the School of Medicine and graduate of universite Paris

9. Dr. Ali Akbar Siyasi, A graduate of the University of Paris and head of higher education

10. Mirza Mohammad Ali Khan Gorgani, The then Head of Retirement Office, one of the skillful and famous managers in administrative and organizational issues

11. Ali Asghar Hekmat, Acting minister of the Ministry of Education

After some month’s studies, exchanging of ideas and reviewing, these scientific and administrative columns proposed the legal bill of the establishment of the University to the National Consultative Parliament. Following two months of review and studies in the Commission of Education at the parliament, finally the National Consultative Parliament approved the bill of the establishment of the University of Tehran on May 28, 1934. Indeed, a golden page was turned in the history of the establishment of Iranian educational institutions. This time, the mentioned law became the beginning of the establishment of new educational institutions in the history of this land.

Now, let’s have a look at some of the articles of this (law) act:

Act of the establishment of the University of Tehran including 21 articles which encompasses the organization of the university, faculties, administrative organization, management and higher councils and method of recruitment of academic and administrative staff.

The first article of this act reads, “ The National Consultative Parliament gives authorization to the Ministry of Education to establish an institution by the name of “ university” for the purpose of teaching science, techniques, literature and philosophy in Tehran”.

The second article of the mentioned act deals with the branches and local organization of the university. According to this article: The university has the following branches, each of which is known as “ faculty”.

1. Faculty of Theology

2. Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics

3. Faculty of Literature, Philosophy and Educational Sciences

4. Faculty of Medicine, and its branches

5. Faculty of Laws and Political Sciences

6. Faculty of Engineering and Engineering Sciences

With regard to the act of May 28, 1934 concerning the development of the university in new fields of study, and at the time when the ministry of Agriculture was under the jurisdiction of Shamsoldin Amir Alayee, the Higher School of Agriculture (dating back to the age of Mozafaroldin Shah Qajar) was affiliated to the University of Tehran. This school, which was in the form of a large garden in Karaj along with laboratory, library and printing set, were joined to the University of Tehran. Despite the fact that after 70 years, the disciplines affiliated to the medical sciences have been detached from the University of Tehran to work under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Health and Medical Education, but encompassing 17 faculties, 2 higher education complexes, 4 educational –research centers or institutes, 14 research institutes and 3 information service institutes, the University of Tehran is still the largest and greatest university in Iran. Furthermore, it is also known as the mother of universities and the symbol of higher education of Iran
