Abstract

The paper argues that that there has not yet been an effective Mongolian Computer Science degree program in operation, and because ICT education cannot cover all the rapid developments in modern computer science, compulsory ICT training in tertiary education must be tightly linked with continuity from the Informatics subject curriculum in secondary schools, and then applied as a tool for subject specialization. The project research team developed a new compulsory and specialized ICT curriculum for tertiary institutions in Mongolia. Activities and outputs of the project are reported on, including an evaluative baseline survey of the current status of ICT training.
