According to the Public Relations Office of the Deputy for Research and Technology at the Ministry of Health and Medical Education, the results of the 2027 Times World University Rankings have been announced. In this prestigious global ranking, 26 Iranian universities of medical sciences have successfully secured a position.
This edition of the ranking includes 26 universities of medical sciences (excluding Shahed University). Five universities appear in the ranking for the first time, while 15 have returned to the list. It is worth noting that 15 universities of medical sciences, which were included in the 2026 edition, failed to secure a ranking in 2027; this was due to internet disruptions that prevented them from uploading the required documentation within the specified timeframe.
Golestan University of Medical Sciences has secured a place in this year’s ranking, falling within the 801–1000 band.
The 2027 Times ranking results highlight the strong presence of Iran’s universities of medical sciences in the global competitive arena. Key achievements in this edition include Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences securing the top position among the group for the third consecutive year, improvements in the rankings of the universities of Tehran and Shiraz, and the return of institutions such as Golestan and Arak universities to the list. It is hoped that by addressing infrastructural obstacles and fostering broader participation from universities, the nation’s academic standing on the international stage will continue to rise.
