 MRU is successfully cooperating with South Korea's higher education institutions including Busan's Dongseo University (DSU) and Ajou University. Academic and student exchanges have been taking place between the higher education institutions.

Together with Dongseo University, MRU has implemented a joint Bachelor's Degree study programme, "Informatics and Digital Contents." Students in these studies programmes have the possibility to acquire diplomas from MRU and DSU.
