The Tehran University of Medical Sciences was separated from the University of Tehran 
in 1986.
The first modern center of medical training in Iran was founded 
in 1851. It was a part of the Institute of Higher Education (Dar-ol-Fonoon). The 
School of Medicine was established as a part of University of Tehran in 1934.
After the Islamic Revolution, medical schools and departments associated with 
medical fields were separated from the Ministry of Higher Education and were 
taken under the administration of the Ministry of Health, Treatment, and Medical 
Education. Since 1986, all those schools of University of Tehran which 
specialize in medical fields have carried on their activities independently as 
Tehran University of Medical Sciences and Health Services.
The TUMS is 
composed of ten Schools and of ten Research Centers and Institutes.
