More than 150 Mongolian experts passed a training course at MPEI. Many Mongolian students came to MPEI after 1999 where the MPEI Educational center at the Ulaanbaatar University had been organized. There were periods of time when the number of the Mongolian students studying in Mongolia according to this program was more than 150 people. For a great contribution to training of national qualified personnel of Mongolia in 2004 MPEI Educational center was awarded by Diploma of Merit of Embassy of Mongolia in the Russian Federation.
