The signing ceremony between UEF and 11 Korean universities

During this collaboration, UEF and the participating universities aimed to enhance academic exchanges, foster student connections, elevate faculty member quality, and promote cultural exchange among the institutions. Additionally, the partnership sought to facilitate collaborations between Korean and Vietnamese startups, supporting their growth and entry into the international markets, while also developing innovative models for university curricula.

                     Successful partnership opens up various upcoming collaborations

The collaboration will be carried out in four major areas. The first area is academic exchange, focusing on the exchange of academic resources, academic curricula, and measures to improve education quality, as well as developing educational programs and initiatives. The second area is fostering connections with students from institutions and providing them with opportunities to engage in entrepreneurial ventures. Furthermore, both parties can organize activities to stimulate interaction and exchange among students from both nations.

The next area of focus is scientific exchange and development. This involves increasing faculty member exchanges for teaching, research, and other academic activities. It is also crucial to jointly organize workshops and conferences to nurture a spirit of learning and research among both students and lecturers. Finally, cultural exchange will be promoted to enhance mutual understanding through exchange programs, interactions, and shared experiences. This will provide opportunities for students and faculty to visit each other’s countries to experience and learn about diverse cultures and entrepreneurial activities.

The signing ceremony took place within the framework of the MEGA US EXPO 2024 event.

The signing ceremony was organized within the framework of the Announcement Ceremony of the Trade Promotion Festival - Gateway to the Korean-Vietnamese Market (MEGA US EXPO 2024). Following successful discussions and agreements, the upcoming collaborative activities are expected to be implemented. This opens numerous opportunities for students and lecturers to engage in Korean cultural exchange, scientific research, international start-ups, and more.
