  • About Shiraz the City: Shiraz Is a City of Sophistication That Has Been Celebrated As the Heartland of Persian Culture for More Than 2000 Years
    About Shiraz The City: Shiraz is a city of sophistication that has been celebrated as the heartland of Persian culture for more than 2000 years. Known as the Dar-ol-Elm (House of Learning),the City of Roses,City of Love and City of Gardens,Shiraz has become synonymous with education, nightingales, and poetry. It was one of the most important cities in the medieval Islamic world and was the Iranian capital during the Zand dynasty (AD 1747–79), when many of its most beautiful buildings were built or restored. This city is situated in the south east of Iran and is the capital city of Fars Province, with a population of about 1 500 000. Shiraz is mild in spring and hot in the summer. The autumns in Shiraz are not too cold; however, the winters tend to be quite cold. Sites to Visit: The Shrine of Shahe-e-Cheragh Sayyed Mir Ahmad,one of Imam Reza’s 17 brothers, was hunted down and killed by the caliphate on this site in AD 835. His remains are housed at the glittering Aramgah-e Shah-e Cheragh. A mausoleum was first erected over the grave during the 12th century but most of what you see dates from the late-Qajar period and the Islamic Republic; expansion is ongoing. Persepolis Persepolis (Old Persian: Pārsa,Takht-e Jamshid or Chehel Minar) was the ceremonial capital of the Achaemenid Empire (ca. 550-330BCE). Persepolis is situated 70 km northeast of the modern city of Shiraz in the Fars Province of modern Iran. In contemporary Persian,the site is known as Takht-e Jamshid (Throne of Jamshid).

  • Exploring the Necessity of Establishing a Doctor of Nursing Practice
    Rivaz et al. BMC Medical Education (2021) 21:328 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12909-021-02758-w RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Exploring the necessity of establishing a doctor of nursing practice program from experts’ views: a qualitative study Mozhgan Rivaz1* , Paymaneh Shokrollahi2, Elahe Setoodegan3 and Farkhondeh Sharif4 Abstract Background: Complex healthcare systems increasingly demand influential nurse leaders adept at managing changes in unstable environments. The doctor of nursing practice (DNP) prepares the nurses for the most advanced level of clinical practice. The aim of this study was to explore the necessity of establishing a DNP program in Iran from experts’ views. Methods: The study used a qualitative descriptive approach. The participants consisted of 13 faculty members and Ph.D. candidates selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through focus group and semi-structured interviews, and analyzed using qualitative content analysis. Results: The content analysis led to the extraction of two main categories: “providing infrastructures” and “DNP as an opportunity to make positive outcomes.“ Conclusions: It is concluded that it is not necessary to establish a DNP program for Iran’s nursing education system. Supplying infrastructures is a crucial component to establishing a new program in Iran. Although DNP, as an opportunity to drive positive changes, is recommended, in the current situation, using alternative solutions may yield better outcomes than establishing a DNP program. Keywords: Doctor of nursing practice, Nursing doctorate, Advanced practice nursing, Nursing education, Iran, Qualitative study Background and the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP).

Consequences for the spatial definition of the Persepolis-Parsa Royal Area Abstract From 2012 to 2014, geophysical and pedestrian surveys were implemented in fields located north of the Persepolis Terrace in the framework of the current Iranian-Italian archaeological mission working on the Persepolis, or Parsa, area. Surveys were carried out north of the so-called “Frataraka” Complex and revealed part of the plan of an almost 1 ha building. This large complex presents distinctive features for suggesting a dating back to the Achaemenid period and for interpreting it as an official building. Being located 600 m north of the Terrace, this discovery led us to approach the question of the occupation dynamics around the “Frataraka” Complex and beyond the limit of the Royal Area, defined in a broad sense as the core district of Parsa hosting most of the official buildings.
