| As the head of EE department, I am extremely fortunate to work with such a wonderful group of individuals who have
common goals and commitments to improve teaching and research activities, to cut through the frontiers of electrical engineering
knowledge to benefit the Iranian society and mankind at large.
Our department is known for its exceptional faculties and excellent student body world wide. First year admissions and enrollments of students to
our department is through a highly competitive nation wide university entrance exam taken by over a million high school graduates every year known as KONKOOR.
We are very proud to announce that EE department at Sharif university of Technology has consistently been among the first choice of many thousands aspiring and
dedicated young men and women. And we are extremely proud to announce that, due to our excellent faculty members in education and research, only the top one
hundredth of one percent of examinees, which amounts to the top 100-120 highest scored students in KONKOOR, get the honor to be admitted and enrolled to our department.
Furthermore our department is the final destination for over ninety five percent of some of our brightest young scientific minds who have competed in international
Olympiads in mathematics, physics, computer science and etc. each year. So, we are very proud of our student body whom have continued on the path of their predecessors
in achieving recognition in national and international competitions. We have about 1000 undergraduate students and 400 graduate students currently enrolled.
Presently, the department is comprised of 53 faculty and 40 support staff. We strive to be at the forefront of research and to educate our students in
the fundamentals as well as emerging technologies and their applications. Many of our faculty have won prestigious teaching and research awards and are at

This leading edge-research activities of our department contributes to the high quality and the reputation of our undergraduate and graduate programs,
and enhances the success of our graduates at all levels (B.Sc., M.sc., Ph.D.).
The department covers a broad range of disciplines related to power engineering, electronics, communications, control and biomedical engineering.
The department is considered to be the largest departments of its kind in the nation in terms of number of faculties and undergraduate/graduate degrees awarded.
Due to our excellent and broad range of research laboratories and activities our department boasts in having two national centers of excellence one in communications sciences
and another in power system control and management. You will find detailed information about our centers of excellence in the center of excellence section of our research
laboratories and web pages with detailed information on current research projects taking place in these centers.
Further information regarding our divisions, research programs and educational programs can be found on other pages of the web site. I encourage you to
