About Department

In response to the needs of the Iranian industry and business environment, and in keeping with Amirkabir University of Technology’s reputable brand in nurturing quality engineering talent, a group of experienced academics (under the supervision of Dr. Mohammad Hassan Sabt) took a bold step forward to educate and encourage the next generation of executives, entrepreneurs, engineers, and managers. The result of this move was the definition of the university’s first MBA program, which was launched in 2007. Four years later, Amirkabir University of Technology established the Faculty of Management, Science, and Technology, which has since offered MBA, MA (Philosophy of Science and Futures Studies), and PhD (Futures Studies) programs.

In 2013, the first accredited International MBA (in English) was launched with the aim of attracting international applicants from the region and beyond. Today, the School of Management, Science and Technology, by adopting a problem-oriented approach and creating solutions for the Iranian context, has established a constructive interaction with decision-makers across the public and private sectors in the industrial and service sectors.
