Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman (SBUK) is a research institution and university of engineering and science in Iran, which offers both undergraduate and postgraduate studies. Located in the Kerman province of Iran, the university is among the top ten universities and research institutes in Iran, illustrating its high status in research and education.[1] The SBUK occupies an area of 5 million square meters, making it one of the largest universities in Iran and the region.[2] The university has two major campuses in the city of Kerman and several smaller campuses spread out across the province of Kerman, offering degrees in over 100 different specialties leading to B.A., B.Sc., M.A., M.Sc., D.V.M., or Ph.D degrees. Although there have been some moves by the smaller campuses in the province to become independent universities, there are still strong ties between these newly established universities and The Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman. The college of art and architecture, the Saba Faculty of Art and Architecture, was named after Afzalipour's wife.[3] The SBUK was appointed as the Center of Excellence (fa:قطب علمی) by Iran's Ministry of Science and Technology (Higher Education) in the field of mathematics.[4] In 1980 the Department of Mathematics was awarded the first doctoral degree in mathematics in all of Iran.[5] Moreover, the second and third doctoral candidates in mathematics awarded in the country were also graduates of this department.[5]
