Iranian and Persian Gulf Studies

IPGS Professorships

The School of Global Studies and Partnerships offers four IPGS endowed professorships with the purpose of developing focused educational and/or research efforts, collaborations, and exchanges with the Iranian and Persian Gulf region.  

The annual support these professorships provide allow faculty to explore their disciplines --whether in the liberal arts, engineering, agriculture, or otherwise -- from the perspective of Iran and the Persian Gulf. Open professorships are filled through a competitive call for proposals; any tenured or tenure-track faculty member at Oklahoma State University is eligible for a professorship, which is awarded on a three-year basis with the possibility of renewal.
