About UMAS

UMAS (University of the Mongolian Academy of Sciences) was established by Government Resolution No. 214 of 2024 as a graduate research university offering master's and doctoral programs. Its first academic year opened on September 23, 2025.

UMAS's defining feature is that it has no separate campus of its own — teaching is delivered inside the Mongolian Academy of Sciences' own research institutes and laboratories. Every student joins a real research project, works in a lab under a scientist-supervisor, takes research-based coursework, and is trained to write academic papers as part of their studies.

Our Mission

To train specialists capable of introducing world-class R&D into Mongolia's science and technology development and creating new innovative solutions.

Our Vision

To become an internationally benchmarked graduate research university that trains and develops talent for Mongolia's science, technology, and innovation sector.
