In this project, the improvement of environmental studies as well as the focus on environmental problems and solutions in Mongolia will be aimed. 2 EU institutes (University of Szeged , Hungary - USZ and University of Oulu, Finland - UO) having great experience with BSc, MSc as well as PhD programs of Environmental Sciences and Environmental Engineering will improve BSc program of Environmental Engineering in 3 institutes in Mongolia (New Mongol Institute of Technology - NMIT, National University of Mongolia - NUM and German-Mongolian Institute for Resources and Technology - GMIT) as well as to form MSc level Environmental Engineering curriculum firstly at NUM. During this project, European Partners will improve as well as bring new courses to the Mongolian curriculum in a course, seminar as well as a laboratory level including producing new handouts, presentations, laboratory evaluations, Massive Open Online courses (MOOC) as well as building and managing a proper Environmental Engineering Laboratory in all 3 Mongolian Institutes. With this project, new MSc of environmental engineering program will be revealed, the BSC studies will be improved, mongolian staff (teachers, technicians etc.) will be trained, industrial involved dual programme teaching will be instructed and public and young students will be involved and informed about the importance of climate change and environmental problems, the students will be programmed in an upgraded level, new connections with industries will be formed as well as EU-Mongolian connections will be strengthened in both educational and research point of view. Also the project will disseminate the results to professionals of public and private sector to equip them with useful tools and knowledge.

The ARROW Project (Improvement of Research and Innovation Skills in Mongolian Universities), aimed to contribute to the promotion and strengthening of scientific writing skills and results visibility in Mongolian Universities. The project Consortium is composed by four European institutions and twelve Mongolian Universities.Through an extensive training program, ARROW provided a wide group of researchers, belonging to Mongolian Partner HEIs, with a set of theoretical and practical content aimed at improving research, publication and intellectual property skills. As a result of this program, beneficiaries acquired not only technical skills related to using a scientific database, selection of the most appropriate journal where to publish or International regulations for patent registration; but they also received training and advices on soft skills necessary for successful publication of research results. In this sense, through several courses, workshops and personalized mentoring, ARROW beneficiaries acquired the right skills for an appropriate communication with referees of quality journals, as well as for a problem solving mentality at time of publication and for the establishment of a productive relationships with partners and colleagues. Such effort continues, beyond the end of the project, through the fruitful collaboration, initiated thanks to ARROW, between European and Mongolian academics and researchers.
