Mandalay University is the second oldest university in Myanmar, founded in 1925.
As a result of university specialization education measures by Myanmar government,
the university at present comprises of undergraduate and graduate school conferring bachelor’s and master's degrees in the fields of humanities and science.

YNU has been receiving students from Mandalay University in the past. Some among them after completion of their graduate school at YNU became faculty members of Mandalay University.
