Our “MA Iranian Studies”, starting in the autumn semester 2019/20 ("Wintersemester"), is a two year (four semesters), full-time study programme convened in English leading to an internationally recognised Master of Arts in Iranian Studies.

The CAB project (Corpus Avesticum Berolinense), carried out at the Institute of Iranian Studies of the Freie Universität Berlin, represents the first attempt to edit the entire Avestan Zoroastrian textual corpus within its ritual context, and to produce and offer both printed and digital editions of the texts.

The Avestan Digital Archive (ADA) seeks to be a digital archive containing all Avestan manuscripts spread all over the world.

Since 1993 the Institute of Iranian Studies publishes the series Iranica , which serves as an international forum for distinguished Iranologists.
The series is edited by Prof. Macuch and Prof. Cantera.
