Kharazmi university has a promotion system specifically designed to encourage interdisciplinary research. This system is based on scientific collaborations among researchers from different fields and the introduction of innovative methodologies that facilitate effective measurement and resolution of complex challenges. Any research that leverages the complementary nature of various scientific disciplines undergoes thorough evaluation and can lead to further advancement and professional opportunities for researchers.
Our university's promotion system utilizes various criteria to evaluate research activities, including publication in reputable international journals, scientific merit and innovation of research, direct and indirect impacts on society and industry, interdisciplinary collaborations, and participation in joint research projects and programs.
In this system, interdisciplinary research is emphasized as an important factor. Collaboration with researchers from different fields and the integration of methodologies and scientific approaches are encouraged. Furthermore, research that leads to innovative solutions for complex issues and contemporary challenges, with greater impacts on society and industry, holds higher value in the promotion system.
Moreover, the system supports researchers' leadership and commitment to advancing knowledge in areas that transcend disciplinary boundaries and encourages them to work in new fields where they may not have expertise.
Also, our university pursues various activities for the development of interdisciplinary research, which include visits, meetings and cooperation agreements with various industries and organizations, as well as the development of interdisciplinary research and educational centers.

►Research centers
Research centers that have interdisciplinary activities
►►a. Oil Research Center (Geology, Chemistry, Engineering, Management and computer science)
1.The Petroleum Research Center of Kharazmi University was established in 1395 to carry out projects in the field of hydrocarbon resources. This center engages several faculties and departments like Geology, Chemistry, Engineering, Management and computer science to conduct multidisciplinary projects in the field of Petroleum exploration and production.
2.At the end of 1396, following an agreement with the National Iranian Oil Company, the major project "Development of Carbonate Rock Technologies in Abadan Plain" was assigned to this center with a budget of 25 billion tomans and 2.5 million euros.
3.At the end of 1399, the first project of the major plan titled "Determination and Distribution of Permeability Porosity, Understanding Rock Type, Pore Type, and Identifying Fractures in Carbonate Rocks Using X-Ray Core Log and Cuttings Information" was announced to the university with a budget of 30 billion rials and 199 thousand euros.
4.An amount of 62,500,000,000 rials was deposited into the university's account as an advance payment, and approximately 5 billion rials related to issued invoices are being followed up.
5.The project has progressed by 68 percent.
6.Proposals for two other projects from the major plan have been approved and will commence upon the completion of the first project:
• Development of the working process of scaling up reservoir parameters..., with a budget of 22 billion rials and 885 thousand euros (rounded figures) for 18 months.
• Facies classification and seismic sequence stratigraphy..., with a budget of 36 billion rials and 317 thousand euros (rounded figures) for 12 months.
7. In collaboration with the knowledge-based company Tavana Energy Kish, and as part of the university's commitments in the plan, the Center for the Development of Modern Exploration Technologies was established at the Karaj campus. Tavana Energy Kish, as a knowledge-based partner of the university in the project, was introduced to the National Iranian Oil Company for project control, coordination of commercialization-related matters, and other executive affairs.
