History
It was early 1987 that the first step for establishing a university in the city of Tafresh was taken by the university development council for training professionals and researchers in order to enrich the necessary human resources in need of the country. Finally in May 1987 the construction of Tafresh university was initiated owing to the efforts spent by Dr Heydari, and Amir Kabir university was seleced as the executor. In 1988 Tafresh university which at that time was a unit of AmirKabir university, conducted its academic activities by admitting fifty three students in applied mathematics.
With the permission of the development council for higher education, Tafresh university was elevated to an independent university in 2005. Tafresh university has been founded to constitute four research centres and seventeen faculties with forty five academic majors available at undergraduate and graduate levels. At the time being Tafresh university hosts twenty one hundred and thirty students in seven academic disciplines. In Tafresh university eighteen hundred and thirty four students study in fifteen academic majors at the B.Sc. level, two hundred and ninety four students study in seventeen academic majors at the M.Sc. level, and twelve PhD students study in two academic majors at the PhD level. Due to the formulated development programme, the number of disciplines offered by Tafresh university shall increase.
Presently, Tafresh university has seventy full time academic staff members.
