Abstract
Concurrent with globalization, some changes have been created in the performance of the universities in developed countries that have turned them into a power source for economic development. In this study, generation changes of Iranian universities in the health sector were analyzed by the layer analysis (CLA) framework. The results showed that the status of universities in Iran is moving from the first and second university generations (i.e. education and research oriented) to the third generation (wealth creation). Too much concentration on indexes such as expert human resources training and number of papers and citations in the Iranian universities has led to stagnation in litany and structural layers. Obtaining scientific authority and technology development requires fundamental evolutions of sciences in deeper layers such as Islamic world view, governance of valuable contexts and evolution in the relationship among higher education and the research and technology system with other sectors.
