Ulaanbaatar, /MONTSAME/ The Economic School of the National University of Mongolia is running a course "Micro-economics competitiveness" in cooperation with the Harvard Business School.
This course is available for students of the Economic School's students studying for master and doctorate degrees as well as for business people and policy makers. About 30 persons are involved in this course that started in the Economic School February 2.
Microeconomics of Competitiveness: Firms, Clusters, and Economic Development (MOC) is a university-wide graduate course offered to students from around the Harvard University community including the Harvard Business School, the Kennedy School of Government, and other Harvard graduate programs. The course has been created in a multi-year development effort by Professor Michael E.Porter and the staff and affiliates of the Institute for Strategy and Competitiveness at Harvard Business School.
The MOC course explores the determinants of competitiveness and successful economic development viewed from a bottom-up, microeconomic perspective. While sound macroeconomic policies, stable legal and political institutions, and improving social conditions create the potential for competitiveness, wealth is actually created at the microeconomic level. The sophistication and productivity of firms, the vitality of clusters, and the quality of the business environment, in which competition takes place, are the ultimate determinants of a nation's or region's productivity. The course has been designed not only for students at Harvard but as a platform that can be taught at universities throughout the world.
MOC network includes 94 higher schools and institutes of about 60 countries. NUM joined the network this year.
Through the course, a great opportunity is opened up to conduct researches on economic competitiveness in association with other schools and research centers, exchange with the results of the researches and scholars.
