IntroductionThe doctoral program plays an important role in the implementation of university missions and scientific development through original research and training of future scientists and researchers. On the other hand, research shows that the success of this course is influenced by factors, one of the most important of which is supervision. Supervisors have different methods, tastes and beliefs in providing supervision. The study of these characteristics and their integration in the theoretical frameworks (academic supervision styles) is an approach that can pave the way for a deeper understanding of the supervisory phenomenon as well as build tools for identifying and evaluating doctoral supervision status.Methodin this study, using the method of narrative review, the literature in the field of higher education in internal resources (25 articles) and external (58 articles) was examined and analyzed.Results6 stylistics were identified for doctoral supervision, which are stylistics: Anderson, Gurr, Gatfield, Mainhard et al., Murphy et al., And Vilkinas. These stylistics are described in the article and a general comparison is made between them.DiscussThe study of these stylistics showed that the educational and moral dimensions of academic supervision, as well as the differences between the guidance of different educational groups, are the most important issues neglected in these stylistics. In addition, it was found that the main focus of these stylistics is on one of the goals of the doctoral course (educating researchers) and it can be suggested to provide stylistics focusing on another important goal of the doctoral course (science production).It should be noted that stylistic studies due to the practical approach as well as conceptual coherence, can help to improve the status of doctoral guidance, because contemplation of different styles of academic supervision and attention to their various dimensions by supervisors can by creating knowledge of different angles of academic supervision will lead to improving the quality of this process.

Introduction:The university system is one of the subsystems and component of the higher education system and the social system; hence, it is influenced by other higher education institutions, the educational system of the country and peripheral devices such as political, economic, social and cultural systems. Many thinkers and educators, who advocate new perspectives on educational reform, believe that policy making and planning in order to redefine the past and present performance of educational systems in each country should be done in the light of the historical background of educational developments and the analysis of the current state of the educational system, because in this case, it is possible to discover the factors that led to the decline of cultural and scientific activities and the formation of the current educational methods with an open and comprehensive view. This research aims to study "the factors affecting the formation and transformation of the university in Iran since the establishment of the University of Tehran as the first Iranian official to date". Methods:This research was done by using thematic analysis method consisting of three stages of descriptive coding, interpretive coding and content development. In order to achieve the purpose of the research, semi-structured interviews were conducted with experts and those who had experience in higher education. Results:The findings of the analysis of the content indicate that several factors have contributed to the formation of the university in Iran. History of the University in Iran from interviewee's views, six distinct courses can be divided into different policies and approaches to higher education. Discussion:In all these periods, many political, economic, social, cultural, ideological and scientific factors have affected the changes and changes in the university. Findings show that there are no significant differences between Iranian universities. The reason for this is the lack of creativity in the management of higher education system on the one hand and centralization on the other. Making any structural, quantitative and qualitative changes in the higher education system of the country should be based on deep sociological, economic, political and cultural studies and its growth and expansion in line with the needs and developments created in these areas. By adopting legal mechanisms and proper culture, the effects of severe political and economic factors and its destructive effects on the higher education system were prevented. The question is, "
