The purpose of this research is to study the economic role of Mirjaveh border corridors on sustainable urban development dimensions. This research is descriptive-analytic in terms of method and nature, and in terms of purpose it is an applied investigation. SPSS software was used to analyze the data. The statistical population of the present study is the households living in Mirjaveh city, and the sample size was determined using Cochran's formula (324 people). Investigating the four dimensions of sustainable urban development (economic, social, physical and environmental aspects) separately in relation to the economic role of Mirjaveh border corridor is one of the innovations of this research. The results of Chi-square test showed that there is a significant and positive relationship between the economic and social development of Mirjaveh city and the economic role of the border corridor. The results of the multiple regression test showed that the economy of the border corridor significantly predicts physical development. The results of the one-sample T-test indicate the low economic role of the border corridor in the environmental development of Mirjaveh city. Finally, in order to investigate the significant difference between the economic role of the border corridor in terms of development, the statistical process of analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used with the help of the general linear model The results showed that the economic role of border corridors in the social and environmental dimension has a significant difference. The general conclusion of the research shows the impact of the economic role of Mirjaveh border corridor on the dimensions of development (economic, social and physical).
