Tarbiat Modarres University to open branch in Syria

Abstract:
Tarbiat Modarres University, a wholly postgraduate Iranian university, will open a branch in Syria using the name of University of Farabi in the near future.

Iranian and Syrian officials came to an agreement during several meetings with each other, Iran's Vice-President of Minister of Science, Research and Technology told IRNA on Monday.

Parviz Davudi went on to say that they signed the Memorandum of Understanding on the establishment of the university and initiated negotiations on the activities of the university and its administrations.

"The first session of the board of trustees of the University of Farabi will be held in the next few weeks in Tehran. The board will be headed by Iran's minister of science Mohammad Mehdi Zahedi and his Syrian counterpart Ghiath Barakat," he added.

The university will admit students in new subjects including nanotechnology, IT, biotechnology and several interdisciplinary fields of humanities, he concluded.
