چکیده:
Nowadays there is no doubt about the effectiveness of using powerful engineering tools and
inductive and analytical abilities of an engineer in almost all scientific fields. One of these
fields is the sports science. The main purpose of this paper is to explain the place of sports
engineering and to investigate its history in Iran. Also the main reasons of progress of this
field along with its potentials for turning from an academic field into a well-established
industrial source of income are covered. To begin, the place of sports engineering in the
world and Iran is introduced. In the next step, table of bachelor courses of Islamic Azad
University branch of science and research in Tehran as the first Asian university covering
the sports engineering is analyzed. Finally, the place of this field in the sports industry is
evaluated.

In the next step, table of bachelor courses of Islamic Azad University branch of science and research in Tehran as the first Asian university covering the sports engineering is analyzed.
The most (and not only) important approaches in this field are as follows: 1) using mechanical engineering for recognition of materials, production methods, and standardization methods for sports equipment, 2) using electrical and computer engineering to design accurate tools and reliable methods for measuring and recording vocal and visual signals, along with artificial using civil intelligence methods for processing these data, 3) engineering for construction of sports places, and 4) using sports biomechanics for studying the body of sportsmen to find out how it is possible for an athlete to reach his/her stable peak of performance.
Some of top projects of sports engineering program at Islamic Azad University branch of science and research of Tehran with completely industrial approach is as follows: · Design and manufacturing of educational and training equipment, · Design and manufacturing of equipment for intelligent judgement, · Design and analysis of light systems in sports’ places, and · Design and Analysis of systems needed in facilities for sports’ places.
Some of the most important feedbacks gathered from sports engineering program students at Islamic Azad university branch of science and research of Tehran is as follows: · "At the beginning‚ I was a bit worried about finding a job after graduation, but now after 2 years I managed to start my own corporation in sports engineering.
