Call for Submissions
The National University of Mongolia (NUM) and the Mongolian Council for Graduate Studies (MCGS) invite researchers, educators, policymakers, and graduate students to participate in the inaugural annual conference on graduate education. This conference marks the launch of the MCGSand will feature keynote addresses from world-renowned experts in doctoral education.
Conference Theme: Reimagining Doctoral Education in Mongolia
Doctoral education is undergoing rapid transformation globally. The rise of generative AI, online learning, internationalization, professionalization, policy shifts, and institutional changes are reshaping the landscape. These evolving trends create both challenges and opportunities for Mongolia’s doctoral education system.
This conference invites discussions on pressing questions, such as:
- How will global changes impact the future of doctoral education in Mongolia?
- What policy and institutional shifts are necessary to align with international standards?
- What lessons can Mongolia learn from global and post-socialist doctoral education models?
- How do Mongolian doctoral students perceive the quality of their education?
- What are the key challenges and opportunities for doctoral education in Mongolia?
We welcome submissions that critically explore these topics and contribute to shaping the future of doctoral education.
