The Doctoral program of \u201cLaw\u201d is a comprehensive educational package in line with the regulations and decisions made by the Ministry of Science, Research, and Technology of Iran. The program of Law is studied in four concentrations of public law, private law, criminal law, and international law. Law is an old field of study which was established as Jurisprudence in Islam. Currently, the Islamic society needs lawyers who are informed of the fundamentals of Islam and thus can explain the legal perspectives of Islam. These lawyers should be able to depict the Islamic judicial system through the comparative study of Islamic views and other legal systems and should prove the superiority of this legal system over other systems. This field will facilitate training such lawyers.<\/p>\n
The graduates of Law can both teach in educational centers and institutes for higher education, and conduct research in the areas related to the Islamic Law. They will also be able to work as advisors expert in political ideological issues.<\/p>\n
