The LeX program was initiated by SP in 2011 and has been responded to by many prestigious training institutions in the ASEAN region, including the active participation of DUT. This year, the LeX program takes place from April 1-12, 2025, with the participation of 2 lecturers and 29 SP students and 29 DUT students.

During the 12 days, students from both schools participated in studying and living together, exchanging Vietnamese and British culture; and also surveyed and researched to implement joint projects in traditional rice paper and vegetable villages of Hoa Vang district (Da Nang city).

Applying Design Thinking and practicing teamwork, students from both schools participate in analyzing, criticizing and evaluating problems and solving practical problems in the community, with the guidance of experienced lecturers, helping students come up with reasonable and highly applicable solutions.

This is a dynamic learning environment, both accessing new technology and expanding the ability to commercialize products and research results of students. The project is also an opportunity for DUT students to integrate into the academic environment, exchange international students, and contribute to building the LeX community in the ASEAN region.

Students from the Vietnam-UK Institute for Research and Training (VNUK), Danang University and 40 students from Northern Europe have just spent 10 weeks experiencing the Kulturstudier program. This is a research, cultural and academic exchange program sponsored by the Kulturstudier organization from Oslo, Norway for Northern European students to study and experience in a number of countries, including Vietnam, where VNUK Institute was "chosen to entrust".

Participating in the program, international students and VNUK students learned about the history, business philosophy, production process and development orientation of prestigious enterprises such as Heineken Danang, Cortex Vietnam Garment Company in Danang... From there, they connected and applied the knowledge they learned to the practice of enterprises in Vietnam.

In particular, Kulturstudier students and VNUK students had the opportunity to visit and exchange culture with the Co Tu community in Dong Giang district (Quang Nam). The program left unforgettable impressions on international students about the dynamic, beautiful and hospitable city of Da Nang; at the same time, it affirmed the prestige and reputation of VNUK Institute in its mission of connecting academic and cultural bridges.
