Knowledge has always been of high regard and great value for Mongolians. It was in the 13th century, when Mongolians, in particular the Great Khaan Khubilai, established the first academic organization of the nation, "The Academy of Worthies." Mongolia's first center of modern sciences came into being in 1921 when the Government of newly independent Mongolia issued a resolution declaring the establishment of the "Institute of Literature and Scripts," which was later upgraded into "Institute of Sciences" and then "Institute of Sciences and Higher Education." In 1961, it was finally reorganized as "the Mongolian Academy of Sciences" (MAS). At present, under its direct supervision the MAS operates 16 research Institutes and Centers, the Ulaanbaatar University. Furthermore in joint operation it supervises 9 research and production corporations.
