Excellence in Persian and Iranian Studies
University of Arizona's Roshan Graduate Interdisciplinary Program in Persian and Iranian Studies is supported by the Roshan Cultural Heritage Institute, a US-based nonprofit that sponsors educational activities to promote the understanding, transmission, and instruction of Persian language and culture. Roshan GIDP benefits from the support of the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences, the Graduate College, the School of Middle Eastern and North African Studies, and the Center for Middle Eastern Studies.
Each year, the Roshan Graduate Interdisciplinary Program in Persian and Iranian Studies admits and supports a select number of highly motivated and inquisitive students to its M.A. & Ph.D. programs focusing on modern or classical Persian literature, Iranian (or other Persian speaking societies’) culture, history, religion, social organization, and politics.
