Frequently Asked Questions

How many universities are there in Iran?

There are 317 officially chartered, licensed or accredited Iranian higher-education institution(s) that meet uniRank's selection criteria.

Is this A-Z list the same as uniRank's Iranian university ranking?

No. This page lists Iranian universities alphabetically for easy lookup, while uniRank's 2026 Iranian University Ranking orders the same 317 institutions according to uniRank's web-metric-based ranking methodology. Each institution's country ranking position is also shown in the right-hand column of this list.

Does alphabetical order reflect a university's quality or web popularity ranking?

No. Alphabetical order is based solely on the institution name and does not indicate academic quality, reputation or uniRank's ranking position. For web popularity-based ordering, see uniRank's 2026 Iranian University Ranking.

How many universities in Iran start with each letter of the alphabet?

The Iranian universities in this list start with the following letters: A (15), B (10), C (1), D (3), E (1), F (3), G (8), H (11), I (151), J (4), K (12), L (2), M (7), N (3), P (3), Q (4), R (2), S (33), T (6), U (29), V (2), Y (3), Z (4).

Can I search this list by location instead of name?

Yes. uniRank also provides an Iranian Universities by Town/City listing that allows institutions to be browsed by their main campus town or city instead of alphabetically.
