November 20, 2025, is the deadline for Mongolian Language & Literature Conference, meant to celebrate academic department’s 80th anniversary
by Dr. Piyush Mathur
Tomorrow is deadline to send out one’s submission for the Student Research Conference on Mongolian Language and Literature—to be held on November 25, 2025 in the Academic Hall of the Mongolian National University of Science and Technology (MUST).
A student must make her or his submission by 6 PM (Ulaanbaatar Standard Time, presumed) on November 20, 2025, to be considered for the conference.
The conference has been organised by the Department of Mongolian Language and Linguistics to celebrate the 80th year of its establishment.
A note, originally in Mongolian, circulated by the organisers points out that the following:
By Resolution No. 51/44 of the 1945 Joint Meeting of the Council of Ministers of the Mongolian People's Republic and the Central Committee of the Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party, the Department of Language and Literature was opened on September 1, 1945, under the Teachers' Faculty of the Marshal Choibalsan State University, and began with 33 students. The first 19 students graduated in 1949, which became the foundation of the current Department of Mongolian Language and Linguistics.
That note has been Google translated for Thoughtfox readers; it adds that the conference call is meant for ‘students of universities and colleges that train specialists in the field of Mongolian language and literature’, with the event aimed at recognizing ‘innovative results in linguistic research.’
There will be awards!
There are also five awards, as follows, attached to the best presentations:
1st place: 1,000,000 tugriks; 2nd place: 700,000 tugriks; 3rd place: 500,000 tugriks; 4th place: 300,000 tugriks; 5th place: 200,000 tugriks
The submission, whose requirements are listed further below, can be made as a hard copy or electronically to the Department of Mongolian Language and Linguistics via this email address:
