This article presents a comprehensive analysis of the centenary evolution of the Russian-Mongolian educational partnership (1920–2025), treating it as a unique case study in the transformation of educational ties amidst geopolitical changes. Based on a comparative historical analysis, the process of formation of the Mongolian educational system in the Soviet period is described, its transition to multi-vector cooperation at the present stage is characterized, and prospects for the development of Mongolian-Russian relations in the field of education are determined. The article substantiates the task of forming a model of educational relations that reflects the objectively established situation of competitive cooperation.
