The School of Fine Arts and Technology’s foundation was built when in 1958, the National University of Education opened an “Art-design technology teacher” class in an effort to prepare university-level fine arts, design, and technology educators. Not only did the school prepare these skill sets, but it also created the foundational classes the Mongolian State University of Culture and Arts has today, preparing educators, visual artists, and actors. Thus, the school has a wide history of preparing the very first culture/fine arts educators and professionals in the nation.
