Therefore, the number of training programs accredited and published internationally has increased sharply, and a number of higher education institutions and training groups are highly ranked in the region and the world.
According to the Ministry of Education and Training, many higher education institutions have proactively taken advantage of the advantages of mobilizing resources from society, diversifying revenue sources to serve school development through training services, high-quality and integrated training programs.
Director of the Department of Higher Education (Ministry of Education and Training) Nguyen Thu Thuy said that at the end of the 2023-2024 school year, the scale of master's and doctoral training of higher education institutions tends to increase again in all fields compared to the previous school year. In particular, the scale of regular university training tends to increase slightly with a total of more than 1.94 million students. In particular, the fields of mathematics and statistics, computers and information technology, engineering technology, engineering, production and processing, architecture and construction, agriculture, forestry and fisheries, and veterinary medicine have increased sharply, showing that training institutions have paid attention to the trend of sustainable development, especially in engineering and technology fields to meet the development needs of the country.
Notably, in training, autonomy in expertise and academics continues to be promoted, the number of newly opened training majors continues to increase in the past year, meeting the human resource training needs of the country and each locality.
Quality assurance work is also focused on, the number of lecturers is constantly increasing, in 2022 there were more than 86,000 lecturers, of which more than 27,000 lecturers are professors, associate professors, and doctors, in 2024, the whole country has more than 91,000 lecturers, of which more than 30,000 lecturers are professors, associate professors, and doctors.
In the 2023-2024 school year, 592 more training programs and 12 training institutions were accredited by domestic and international standards. With the 2023-2024 accreditation results, the entire higher education system has 204/239 higher education institutions that have been accredited for quality.
Along with improving the quality of training, scientific research activities and international publications tend to increase sustainably. Statistics from the Ministry of Education and Training show that in 2022, out of 18,441 Scopus articles nationwide, the 67 universities that published the most had 15,186 articles (accounting for 82.35%); in the first seven months of 2024, out of 12,567 Scopus articles nationwide, the 67 universities that published the most had 10,613 articles (accounting for 84.45%).
Ministry-level scientific research topics are regularly maintained by the Ministry of Education and Training. All approved topics have international publications in ISI, Scopus, ACI and domestic publications in scientific journals in the State Council of Professors' work scoring list...
Many training institutions have effectively implemented training and scientific research. For example, at Da Nang University, in order to improve the quality of training and scientific research, since 2015, the "Science and Technology Development Fund" has been established to provide funding for Da Nang University-level projects; support young lecturers and reward lecturers who are authors of scientific articles published in prestigious international journals.
According to Associate Professor, Dr. Le Thanh Bac, Vice President of Danang University, in recent years, Danang University has had 60 to 70 lecturers graduating with doctoral degrees each year, contributing to improving the quality of the staff with the proportion of lecturers with doctoral degrees accounting for nearly 47% of the unit's lecturers.
Although the quality of training has been significantly improved, the reality shows that human resources, especially high-quality human resources, still do not meet the requirements of socio-economic development.
According to the Ministry of Education and Training, the scale of university training has increased but is concentrated in sectors and fields with high potential for socialization such as economics, finance or sectors with large human resource needs; while basic science, social science, culture and arts, agriculture... have not yet attracted learners.
Most higher education institutions focus mainly on undergraduate training activities, and have not paid adequate attention to investing in postgraduate training associated with scientific research. Training activities are not closely and regularly linked to labor requirements and social needs.
Therefore, to continue improving the quality of higher education, higher education institutions need to strongly innovate training programs and methods associated with strengthening management, improving training quality associated with enhancing scientific research capacity and innovation; mobilizing all resources to improve capacity and operational efficiency, creating a strong change in the quality of training and research throughout the system; and preparing well the premises for the new development stage of higher education.
Director of Hanoi University of Science and Technology Huynh Quyet Thang said that the scale of enrollment and university training of most higher education institutions across the country has been increasing rapidly in recent times. This reflects the increasing demand for university study of the young generation, associated with the urgent need for highly qualified human resources to serve the socio-economic development of the country. Therefore, training institutions need to have strong investment, improvement and innovation solutions to ensure the maintenance and improvement of human resource quality; in which, promoting innovation of training programs, improving the quality of lectures and textbooks; innovating teaching methods, investing in digital transformation infrastructure and training laboratories, closely cooperating with businesses to continuously improve training quality...
According to Deputy Minister of Education and Training Hoang Minh Son, in order to continue improving the quality of training and scientific research, universities need to create maximum conditions for lecturers with support solutions. In particular, in international cooperation, there needs to be strategic cooperation with a number of foreign educational institutions, making it more convenient to send lecturers to study, especially young lecturers. Developing lecturers is not only a matter of attracting and competing domestically, but also developing and attracting highly qualified Vietnamese people abroad to work, especially in areas that the country needs, key areas such as artificial intelligence, high technology, semiconductor technology, etc.
