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.

Charles Oberling was instrumental in structuring the university's curriculum and facilities during the university's founding.

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

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.
