According to the rapid development in science and technology, our society requires well educated experts and this is of high importance for the society as fundamental needs which help it to become more powerful and independent. In this regard, governments can make progress applying suitable comprehensive plan, educating young talents and employing optimal tools and existing facilities. Due to the importance of specialization in engineering, which is necessary to have an industrialized country this article tries to investigate the priorities and importance of common engineering in Iran in order to help the government find society needs, overcome the challenges of education system and efficient use of available resources. For this aim, several criteria must be considered simultaneously including society requirements, injection and human resource shortage in different parts, according to the potentials of existing facilities, etc. To consider all criteria, we use hierarchical analysis process and based on the opinions collected of faculty members and experts we analyzed these criteria and with high accuracy, compared each of engineering priorities in Iran and finally determined the priority in this branch
