Abstract :
One of the most important factors in effectiveness of educational organizations is having experts of science education. For this reason, training science education experts plays a great importance role in most developed countries education system ( Lewin 2000 ). These majors have a great variety in many developed countries, but in Iran only in a few majors have been established such as: physic education, mathematics, English, French, and Persian languages education for non Persians and medical aducalion as well as nursing education. The main contents of academic courses in science education in complementary education consist of a collection of technical subjects such as education teaching training and research method in behavioral science. The most important performance of the graduates of science education majors is training researchers in general or higher education systems. It is obvious that professional teachers and researchers education requires a suitable level of knowledge along with the theoretical principles of learning as well as it’s nature in science and research skills. Like interdisciplinary majors, science education majors are organized through logical combination of a scientific and educational subject with statistic and research method. For example, physic, physic education methods are the main subjects of physic education in post graduate levels. For each subject, some activities are predicted. Science education lack of development in post graduate levels has left a vacancy in general and higher education system of the country, so that there is rarely any professional researcherin science education researches. Establishing fundamental sciences, engineering sciences, literature language education, and ideology education in pos graduate level is a necessity.
