During the meeting, the parties exchanged views on expanding the cooperation between universities and introducing university management, and implementing sandwich programs in the field of higher and vocational education of Mongolia, in cooperation with the University of Freiburg.
Other issues covered during the talks were introducing and localizing the German technologies through our professionals studied in Germany, and training teachers and practitioners in Germany.
Mongolia and Germany will commemorate the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations in 2024. On the occasion of this anniversary, the Minister of Education and Science L. Enkh-Amgalan officially invited Minister Sebastian Gemkow to visit Mongolia at his convenience.
