School of Advanced Medical Sciences and Technologies

With the purpose of achieving cutting-edge technological knowledge, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences decided to establish the school of advanced medical sciences and technologies four years ago. To this end, first the school started working in virtual mode. Beginning in July 2011, the school entered a new phase in its operation with establishing a temporary office and then moved to the new building. This school enrolls students in M.Sc. and PhD programs. Toward its mission, the school takes advantage of experienced professors from other schools taking into account the nature of programs. For the first time, the school of advanced medical sciences and technologies accepted PhD students in medical biotechnology through Ministry of Health and Medical Education examination and has accepted students in medical biotechnology at PhD level and at Master's degree in medical nanotechnology.
