Farheekhtegan ( Persian: فرهیختگان, "Intellectuals"; Persian pronunciation: [færhĭxtûˈgŭn]) is a national Iranian Persian-language newspaper. With ISSN 2008-4765 and OCLC Number 433127552, [1] the newspaper is focused on academic, cultural, political, social, economic and sports news. [2]
Farheekhtegan was first published in April 1993 as a weekly magazine, [2] mainly covering the news around the Islamic Azad University. On 20 May 2009, [3] Farheekhtegan, then evolved to a daily newspaper, came out to the kiosks around Iran for the first time. The newspaper continued daily publication in Persian language since then and occasionally was also published in English. [4]
In addition to the typical Iranian distribution system of written materials through the kiosks and libraries in Tehran and other major cities, Farheekhtegan also enjoys a dedicated circulation system among Islamic Azad University branches around the country.
