Officials from the National University of Mongolia, or NUM, one of the most prestigious universities in the country, paid a visit to the Gwangju Institute of Science & Technology, or GIST on 18.

 

During the visit, President Tumur Ochir and his delegation met with President Jung-ho Sonu and other senior university officials, and discussed concrete ways of cooperation such as student exchange and recruitment. This is a follow-up to the exchange cooperation plan pushed forward by Mr. Sonu during his visit to the NUM in June. The two institutions plan to continuously put into practice what was agreed upon during the meeting.

 

Following meeting with GIST officials, Mr Ochir attended the GIST graduation ceremony and gave his congratulatory remarks to the graduates. In a wrap tour, which involved the Advanced Photonics Research Institute (APRI) and the Heeger Center for Advanced Materials, he looked around high-tech laser facilities and solar cell research facilities.
