University: Started officially on May 30, 2009 in Maragheh, a beautiful city in East Azerbaijan Province, Iran, Maragheh University is a state-funded University which has 4 faculties and 14 departments. Coming from different parts of Iran, approximately 3000 students attend Maragheh university.

Currently, there are two officially established faculties in the university: Faculty of Basic Sciences and Faculty of Agriculture. Two other faculties—Faculty of Engineering and Faculty of Humanities—have been recently founded.

History: The Agriculture Institute of Maragheh was founded in 1987-under the auspices of Tabriz University. The state-funded institute conferred associates degrees that generally took two years. With the continued efforts of the officials then and the agreement of Council of Higher Education Development (CHED), the institute developed into Agriculture College of Maragheh in 1999. The college was considered as a branch of Tabriz University until 2005. In April 30, 2005, the CHED agreed with further expansion and development of the college; as a result, it turned into the Higher Education Center of Maragheh. Later in January 13, 2007, the CHED recognized the center as Maragheh University. With budget allocation to the university in 2008, it became financially independent. Finally, the official agreement of the CHED with the establishment of Maragheh University was issued in May 30, 2009.
