Where modern medical education in Mongolia began
MNUMS opened in 1942 as the medical faculty of the National University of Mongolia. It was the first institution in the country to teach modern medicine, and it remains Mongolia's only national medical university.
Today the university has schools of medicine, dentistry, pharmacy and nursing. It runs its own teaching hospitals, including the Mongolia-Japan Teaching Hospital in Ulaanbaatar.
