Education pursued after high school.
Kultureller Hintergrund
The 'Konkur' exam is the gatekeeper to 'تحصیلات عالی'. The stress surrounding this exam is a major part of Iranian youth culture. Access to 'تحصیلات عالی' has been a major political and social flashpoint, especially regarding women's right to attend university. The term is used similarly, but you may see more Russian influence in the structure of the university system itself. Highly educated immigrants often emphasize their 'تحصیلات عالی' to integrate into professional markets in the West.
