Doctorant. Bat-Otgon Bat-Ochir (b. 1968) is a Senior Lecturer at the School of Information Technology and Electronics of the National University of Mongolia, an institution he has been associated with for 30 years — first as a researcher (1990–1991) and lecturer (1991–1995), then as a part-time lecturer (2000–2004) and, since 2004, as Senior Lecturer teaching digital electronics, interfacing and nuclear electronics.
He earned his M.Sc. in Physics and Electronics from the (National) University of Mongolia in 1990 and his Ph.D. in Nanoscience and Technology from Seoul National University (2006–2009), with a thesis on instrumentation for nanoscience. His early career was shaped by nuclear electronics: he worked as a scientific researcher at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna, Russia (1992–1994), where he designed an electronic system for registering uranium traces in a gas-filled chamber, and completed the IAEA's two-year group training course on nuclear electronics and interfacing at the Seibersdorf Laboratory in Austria (1994–1996), followed by a research visit on in-circuit emulators at the International Centre for Theoretical Physics in Trieste.
Between 1995 and 2004 he combined academia with industry, serving as Head of the Electronics Department at NIC Co. Ltd — where he built the company's nationwide satellite WAN and LAN infrastructure — and as Director of EB Electronics Co., Ltd and Gamma Photo Co. Ltd. Projects from this period include the design and installation of the electronic voting system of the Mongolian Parliament, the LAN of the School of Economics under the EU TACIS programme, and the first digital ID-card photo database covering all citizens of Mongolia.
Within the JICA-funded M-JEED joint research project "Research and Development for Power Electronics and Industrial Automation" (2016–2026), he conducted research at the Power Electronics Research Center of Kyushu Institute of Technology under Prof. Ichiro Omura (2017, 2019) on coreless current sensing, and co-authored the paper "Envelope tracking based embedded current measurement for monitoring of IGBT and power converter systems" (Microelectronics Reliability, 2018). His textbook on basic electronics was the subject of a joint translation project with Kyushu Institute of Technology students in 2019.
He has been a member of the National Committee of the Physics Olympiad and leader of Mongolia's national team since 2008, designed the experimental setup for the Asian Physics Olympiad 2023 in Taiwan, and joined the National Committee of the Electronics Olympiad in 2025. He is fluent in English and Russian and reads German.
