The Mongolian University of Science and Technology is a leader in the higher education reform process is dedicated to elevating the country’s standards to an international level by sharing knowledge and experience with the international community. International Cooperation has brought to the staff and students of Mongolian University of Science and Technology a great opportunity to learn and open its mind to a new world.
The main problem engineering university is facing is the important lack of modern laboratory facilities and therefore limited practical experience. The establishment of research projects within many European Union programs in food technology, textile technology and in student service at MUST brought unlimited opportunities for our staff and students to be involved in valuable international exchanges focused on technical development.
