Tehran, YJC. Deputy Minister of Science has said that 15,000 experts currently living abroad are identified and provided with special privileges to be easily employed at academic centers inside the country.

The Deputy Minister of Science Arsalan Qorbani said in an interview with Mehr News Agency that the ministry has identified 15,000 Iranian experts from other countries for cooperation.

He added "The major part of cooperation with these experts will be in the form of short-term study projects and bilateral conferences with foreign countries, so there wont be much need for the experts to come to Iran.”

He also provided comments on how the ministry will facilitate the experts’ employment and said "In case these experts would apply for teaching positions at universities throughout the country, an arrangement has been made with the Secretary of the Employment Committee of the High Council on Cultural Revolution to separate them from the regular employment procedure and facilitate their employment.”

Qorbani added that after they return to the country, the experts will be used for research projects or in teaching positions.
