Located in Tehran adjacent to the main University of Tehran campus, it was founded as part of Dar ol-Fonoon, and later absorbed into Tehran University in 1934.

It finally separated from Tehran University by parliamentary legislation in 1986.

TUMS today is ranked as one of Iran's top research universities, with an annual research budget of over 300 billion Rials from the government.

The school trains over 13,000 students (40% of which are women) in over 80 postgraduate programs.

The school operates 15 teaching hospitals, and is equipped with over 40 libraries, and publishes 26 journals.

Currently however, Tehran University of Medical Sciences publishes all its scientific research under the name "University of Tehran".[4]
