Materials and Methods y
The research is applied in terms of purpose and in terms of data collection heuristic. In the qualitative section, data were collected, coded, and grouped using the seven-step procedure of Barso and Sandski 2009. For this purpose, published research on professional development of faculty members in the internal and external databases is selected as the statistical population. In this study, 34 samples were purposefully selected and categorized. The results of the seven phases of the qualitative section were designed and formulated based on a survey and with the opinion of faculty members and heads of educational departments of Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman (650 people) using Cochran formula of 242 of them by sampling method. Stratified random sampling was used; data were collected.

Discussion and Results
In this study, we tried to identify and classify the organizational factors affecting the professional development of faculty members and to evaluate the validity of these factors from the viewpoints of faculty members and heads of educational departments of Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman. The findings of the research indicate that in most domestic and foreign research of the last decade, fifteen components of formalism, complexity, concentration, database management systems, internet and intranet, up-to-date data mining and storage tools, rewards and compensation systems, interactions Social, Organizational Commitment, Human Resources, Physical Resources, Financial Resources, Goal-Based Education and Research, Commitment to Job Goals, Employee and Organization Goal Sharing have been emphasized as influential organizational factors on faculty members' professional development.
