Abstract
Among the elements of the education system, the teacher element is the most important one, so professors and teachers are the underlying agents for the renewal of pedagogy. It is hoped that the lack of effective position of man in traditional education of architecture is removed in contemporary architecture education by investigating the human component, profound vision, and principles that architect masters acquired when they were solving the problems ruling the implementation of the building, creating a relationship between new building and environment’ texture, illustrating accurate human relationships and teaching these principles in details and accurately to their students.
This study aims to improve the quality of higher education through an introduction to a model of a competent professor in Iran’s higher education. To do this, a qualitative study with a content analysis approach was done. Semi-structured interviews and participant observation were used to collect data.

It can be seen that the average score of the total score as well as the average score of the cognitive dimension was above average, the average score of the wisdom dimension was desirable and excellent, and the average score of the skill dimension was poor.
