Mongolia International University

Mongolia International University (MIU) is a private university in the Mongolian capital of Ulaanbaatar. MIU is accredited by the Mongolian Ministry of Education and is a 100 percent foreign foundation supported by the Mongolian government. All of its courses are taught in English, and nearly all of its faculty are from other countries.

MIU has 1,000 students enrolled across eight academic departments and four affiliated institutions. From eleven different countries, there are 54 full-time faculty members and three adjunct faculty members (USA, Korea, China, India, Spain, Canada, Netherlands, Singapore, England, Malaysia, and Romania). MIU has a student-to-faculty ratio of 12.7:1.

Under the consent of former Mongolian President Natsagiin Bagabandi, the MIU Foundation Committee established an international university in November 2001. Mongolia International University first opened its doors in 2002, with 66 students in the Department of International Business Management and 30 in the Department of Information Technology. Dr. Dong Yeon Won was named MIU's first president.

More academic programs, such as the Department of Fashion Design, the Department of Energy Resource and Environmental Technology, the Department of Hotel Management, the Truman Graduate School of Public Affairs, the Art Research Center (ARC), and the Mongolian Language & Culture Center, became available over time (MLCC). Mongolia International School (MIS), now Mongolia Itgel High School, was founded in 2009 by MIU as an international secondary school.

Incoming freshmen will be able to study in three newly opened academic programs beginning in the Fall of 2016: the Department of Music Education, the Department of Tourism Management, and the School of Media and Communication (SMC).
