    • 1986

      Association of Professors and Scholars of Iranian Heritage (APSIH) was established in 1986 by several professors and scholars of Iranian heritage who served in academic institutions and research centers in Southern California. APSIH was formed at the time when the Iranian image was distorted to the extreme, especially in Western countries, due to the political problems of the time.

    • Educationally Accomplished

      The main intention of the founders was to create an organization to bond the isolated educationally accomplished individuals in the Iranian community. Besides creating a professional network, the aim was to have a prestigious organization that would elevate the image and the spirit of the Iranian community. The association has been truly successful in achieving these goals. Many new and lasting friendships that otherwise would not have happened have been made through APSIH and the general public has received valuable services from the organization in a multitude of ways.

    • Scholarly Achievements

      APSIH is now an expanded organization that reflects, recognizes, and promotes scientific and scholarly achievements by Iranians, educates and informs the Iranian community, and spreads awareness among the world community about the rich Iranian heritage of scholarly achievements in diverse human endeavors, past and present. After decades of operation under the leadership of the founders, the Association is now being led by a new generation of Iranian scholars and is pursuing additional innovative directions.

    • Mission of APSIH

      The mission of APSIH is to create and promote scientific cooperation and enhancement within the social relationship of professors and scholars of Iranian heritage within the governing laws of the United States of America without any discrimination based on ethnic origin, gender, religion, and political ideology. APSIH is a non-profit and independent educational organization without any bias toward any political, ideological, or religious group. Moreover, this association shall not participate in, endorse or repudiate any political, religious, or ethnic movement.
