Royal International Bilingual School students experience a day as global citizens at UEF

November 16, the Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management at UEF organized the program "A Day as a Global Citizen" for students from Royal Bilingual International School (Royal School).

The event was attended by Prof. Dr. Eric Jose Olmedo Panal, Dean of the Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management; Ms. Nguyen Thi Kim Thoai, Deputy Dean of the Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management; Mr. Nguyen Viet Thuy, Deputy Dean of the Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management; and Ms. Nguyen Thi Lan Chi, Head of Hospitality Management.

At the event, students participated in an in-depth session on intercultural communication, focusing on banquet etiquette, dining protocols, and international table manners. The content was delivered in an engaging manner, with practical examples to help students easily visualize and absorb the knowledge. Through this session, students not only understood the significance of small details in communication but also recognized that soft skills are the "key" to connecting with the world.

 

Additionally, students engaged in hands-on experiences related to three specialized fields within the Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management at UEF: Hospitality Management, Tourism and Travel Management, and Restaurant and Culinary Management. Each field provided a fresh perspective, helping students realize its potential and career opportunities. Under the guidance of dedicated faculty members, Royal School students experienced UEF’s dynamic and modern learning environment.

Moreover, students consolidated their knowledge, shared personal insights, and reflected on their experiences through a recap session at the end of the program. Many students expressed their excitement and surprise at what they had learned, emphasizing the importance of developing skills and knowledge to become global citizens.

These initiatives not only affirm UEF’s position as a pioneer in applied education but also reflect its long-term vision of cultivating globally adaptable, dynamic young professionals.

Students had a memorable day of experience at UEF

Although the program has concluded, the knowledge and experiences gained will undoubtedly serve as essential assets for Royal School students in the future. This event acts as a bridge for UEF to continue spreading its values, strengthening connections with students through a modern and practical educational environment.
