In this research we study the explanation of educational program of the Quran and Hadith studies in the academic education system of Iran. For this purpose, we have investigated the occurrence and changes in this academic system between 1986 to 2016, based on the analysis of curriculum documents approved by the Supreme Planning Council of the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology (ATF). The results of this research show that in the first decade of formation of the academic system of Qur'an and Hadith studies, the educational basic goal was "training human resources and agents familiar with Islamic teachings", with the attitude that the development in the field of islamic studies is achieved in “seminaries”, not universities. Consequently, the emphasis on deriving the "Teachings of the Quran and Hadith" has caused the dominant orientation in academic education to be towards public functions and away from scientific elitism and specialization.
