Dr. Ha Thuc Vien speaks at the opening ceremony
Today (November 21), Vietnam-Germany University held the opening ceremony for the 2023-2024 school year and celebrated its 15th anniversary. In the new school year, the school welcomed nearly 600 new students, bringing the total number of university training students to 2,700. Compared to 36 students in the first school year, the school's student population has now increased 75 times.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, Deputy Minister of Education and Training Nguyen Van Phuc highly appreciated the achievements of Vietnam-Germany University. Starting in 2008 with only 36 students studying the undergraduate program in electrical engineering, the university now has 2,700 students studying 7 undergraduate programs and 10 master's programs focusing on many fields of high technology engineering and economics. The employment rate of graduates is high, and the research activities of the teaching staff have achieved certain achievements.
According to Deputy Minister Phuc, the establishment of the Vietnam-Germany University is the result of the long-standing historical relationship between Vietnam and Germany. With the support of an association of nearly 40 German universities, following the German university education model, the university's internationalization opportunities will be significantly expanded.
“It is not only about international student and faculty exchanges, cross-border cooperation in research and application of research to solve global problems, but also about global competition to have the best people, the best research and the best reputation,” Deputy Minister Phuc emphasized.
Calling this a reform project of Vietnam, a new model university, Deputy Minister Nguyen Van Phuc believes that the sustainable development of the school is not only an investment for the future of Vietnam but also an investment in the relationship between Germany and Vietnam.
Speaking to the new students, Dr. Ha Thuc Vien, Vice Principal in charge of Vietnam-Germany University, said: "The responsibility of students now is to study hard."
Mr. Vien further suggested: "You must take full advantage of all your opportunities and proactively ask professors anything you do not understand. Ask as many questions as possible. Only then will you acquire exactly the knowledge you need. Because professors come to Vietnam with the sole purpose of guiding you to become leading experts, scholars and researchers in the future."
Vietnamese-German University was established in 2008 with the aim of becoming a leading research university in Vietnam and the region. It is also the first university established within the framework of the Project to build a number of excellent universities of the Vietnamese Government.
