About Malek-Ashtar University of Technology page, I have some resources proves that this University is not Military. I have not able to edit its page. May you edit the page and correct it?

In ref., it has not been mentioned that the MUT is a military university. This is a public research university belongs to an executive organ of IRAN government which is known as the Ministry of Defense. Regarding MUT's own website, the purpose of Malek Ashtar University of Technology is to implement special national research projects and to train experts and special staff required by the country's industries and research centers. The MUT's academic mission covers two main objectives: 1. Human resource development for industries 2. Finding scientific & technological solutions to the problems of high-tech industries in addition to knowledge  production. Which of these are considered as military?

The IRAN ministry of Defense is one of 19 ministries of Iran government, not military.  Based on this link which is listed all of Iranian military and armed forces, the Iranian armed forces  comprise just 3 forces : the Army (Artesh), the Revolutionary Guard Corps (Sepāh) and the Law Enforcement Force (Police) of the Islamic Republic of Iran which only these three forces are considered as military. So, the ministry of defense of Iran is not an armed force, and it only has the role of supporting the armed forces. Although the Malek ashtar university is affiliated with a Ministry of Defense of Iran, It is not considered a military university. All of issues about university courses, researches and grading has been done under the supervision and according to the instructions from Ministry of Science, Research and Technology of IRAN (MSRT). As a person who has educated at this university and get the M.Sc. degree, I know enough about this university, and I am sure about this fact that the MUT is not military university, but it is a public research university which all of student admissions is performed by the National Organization of Educational Testing (http://sanjesh.org/en/aboutus.aspx) in a national competition. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 3WPSJS252eEr (talk • contribs) 13:42, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

 * I agree that the change to the introduction did not reflect the cited sources. However, there is no reason to remove the UN's and EU's description of its activities. – Thjarkur (talk) 14:07, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
