(AP) Nasser Karimi - Iran has imposed new restrictions on 12 university social sciences deemed to be based on Western schools of thought and therefore incompatible with Islamic teachings, state radio reported Sunday. The list includes law, philosophy, management, psychology, political science, women's studies and human rights. Senior education official Abolfazl Hassani said the restrictions prevent universities from opening new departments in these subjects. The government will also revise the content of current programs by up to 70% over the next few years. Some two million out of 3.5 million Iranian university students are studying social sciences and humanities, according to government data. 2010-10-25 10:30:59Full Article
