The MA in Iranian Studies is funded by the prestigious Kamran Djam Scholarship, offering substantial financial support.
This distinctive program is available at only a handful of global institutions. At SOAS, you'll enjoy studying in London's vibrant heart, with opportunities to learn Persian and other regional languages while connecting with renowned research hubs like the Centre for Iranian Studies and the Centre for Middle Eastern Studies.
The MA's adaptable structure and multidisciplinary approach deepen students' understanding of Iran's religious and socio-political dynamics within its regional context. Participants will cultivate analytical skills for examining Iranian literature and diaspora studies, while exploring the nation's role in the Middle East across diverse themes including gender studies, political systems, Islamic culture, musical traditions, and migration patterns.
