It is a major state-funded research center in central Iran and the academic center of Yazd province and was the first comprehensive institute of higher education established after the 1979 Islamic revolution.[1] It is also the principal heir to the former University College Yazd (Persian: دانشسرای عالی یزد).[1] Yazd University is considered to be among the top 10 comprehensive universities in Iran and it is among 200 best world's young universities.[2] The university was founded in 1989 by a merger of several older institutions and grew rapidly over the years.
