CHINLONE Mandalay University is partner of the
"CHINLONE – Connecting Higher Education Institutions for a new leadership on National Education" project. CHINLONE is a three-year (2017-2020) international project in the field of
Higher Education funded by the
European Union in the frame of the
Erasmus+ Capacity Building Key Action 2. The project is coordinated by the
University of Bologna (
Italy). CHINLONE's key aim is to contribute to the modernization and internationalization of
Myanmar’s Higher Education System (HES), in order to facilitate the country’s transition toward a knowledge economy. The project aims to modernize Myanmar’s university management system by introducing internationally recognized higher education principles, strengthening faculty capacity to design programs focused on student learning outcomes through pilot curricula in select fields, and establishing or enhancing International Relations Offices to support internationalization and integration into global networks. It also seeks to promote future cooperation between European countries and Myanmar for academic exchange within a regulated framework. The library system of UM consists of the Central Library and 21 separate departmental libraries. The combined holdings include approximately 186,000 books in
English for all subjects and 94,000 books in
Myanmar. A new library was completed in March 2013. An online library project was planned by the
Open Society Foundations and American Universities.
History Mandalay intermediate College Library was established along with the Mandalay Intermediate College in the year 1925. The college and library were badly damaged during World War II. Th Library was started with a nucleus of 2,000 volumes on 17 July 1947. The library was housed on the second floor of the university main building in the chemical laboratory hall. Then the library was moved to the first floor of the main building. As the collection increased, the space was found insufficient for the library. In 1995, the library was shifted to the first floor of Razak Hall. Razak Hall was named in honor of Saya Gyi
U Razak who was a teacher and member of the national leader in the independence movement. Again in 1963, the library was moved to the second floor. In 1968, the whole building would be used for the library. In 2013, the library was moved to a new building on the campus. The Mandalay University Library is the largest academic library in Upper Myanmar. ==Notable alumni==
