Mongolian Academy of Sciences

Encyclopedia : M : MO : MON : Mongolian Academy of Sciences

The Mongolian Academy of Sciences is Mongolia's first centre of modern sciences. It was founded in 1921, when the government established an Institute of Literature and Script, which was later upgraded to Institute of Science. Later, in 1961, it was reconstituted as the Mongolian Academy of Sciences (MAS). The MAS, among its other supervisory roles, oversees the National University of Mongolia in Ulaanbaatar. It has been responsible for much original palaeontological research and for field studies.
