The two-day International Olympiad "New age of Public Administration" was held at the Russian House in Ulaanbaatar, with high school students from Mongolia participating.
Olympiad winners will be eligible to enroll in the Presidential Academy's undergraduate programs. The Olympiad, for more than 90 participants, includes mathematics and interdisciplinary exams.
"Projects like these allow us to find the most talented and motivated applicants. For many, getting an education in Russia is an excellent opportunity to realize their future potential, especially if you're studying in the Presidential Academy's programs," commented Natalia Shafinskaya, Head of the Academy's International Development Department.
Last academic year, the pilot stage of the International Olympiad "Managers of the Future" was successfully held in Bishkek and Tashkent. The Olympiad winners received the right to enroll in the Presidential Academy's master's program within the quota established by the Russian Government. This year, the decision was made to expand the project, so the Olympiad will also be held in non-CIS countries.
