About

Shahid Rajaee Teacher Training University (SRTTU), is a public university in the Islamic Republic of Iran. The university is named after Mohammad Ali Rajaee, the second president of Iran. The university is located in the North East of Tehran, in the Lavizan neighborhood. The university was founded in 1980 on the premises of the former Tehran American School (1974-1979). The main purpose of Shahid Rajaee Teacher Training University is to prepare teachers to teach the national curriculum developed by the Ministry of Education at public secondary schools in Iran. It is worth mentioning that most of the graduates in the majors related to engineering teach in technical and vocational education schools.

SRTTU offers both undergraduate and graduate programs in nine faculties and various disciplines for typical students and teachers hired by The Ministry of Education. Programs of typical students are separated from teacher education programs in order to provide professional education for each group. SRTTU is a public university and therefore, the budget for education and research programs is provided by the government of Iran. Students are accepted into this university by Iranian University Entrance Exam (known as Konkur) which is conducted by the Ministry of Science, Technology and Research (MSRT).
