The British University Vietnam (BUV) has provided students a chance to access an international education and helped the country improve the quality of its human resources over the past decade, heard a ceremony held in the northern province of Hung Yen on January 5 to mark the 10th anniversary of the BUV.
At the event, UK Ambassador to Vietnam Gareth Ward affirmed the university is a symbol of successful education cooperation between Vietnam and the UK.
Currently, the university offers 11 bachelor programmes and one MBA programme in English. The BUV is proud of the role it holds in representing the quality of a British degree within Vietnam by being the first and only international institution to award British degree certificates in the country.
The university is partnered with Staffordshire University and the University of London, who award students their final degree after studying at BUV.
The university has also invested 34 billion VND (1.47 million USD) in a scholarship fund, aiming to open the door to a UK education for gifted high school and university students.
During its ten-year journey in Vietnam, the university has worked to create a modern learning experience for Vietnamese students, and it will continue to cooperate with the Government, competent agencies, and partners to further develop Vietnamese education in the coming years.
Vice Chairman of Hung Yen province’s People’s Committee Nguyen Duy Hung congratulated the university on its success.
He believed that higher education has played an important part in training high-quality human resources for the nation, particularly in the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution./.

The National Science and Engineering Fair for secondary and high school students was held at Ton Duc Thang University in Ho Chi Minh City from March 19-21 by the Ministry of Education and Training.
As women's participation in key leadership positions of Hoa Binh province is still modest while some women in rural and mountainous areas or from ethnic minorities face limited access to policies, the provincial Party Committee's Organisation Board has advised the provincial Party Committee's Standing Board to direct Party committees at all levels and localities to pay more attention to training female personnel and creating favourable conditions for women to take over leadership and management roles, thus addressing a shortage in the number of female cadres.
The Department of Education and Training of Hoa Binh province held a conference on March 18 to review the performance of the "Safe and Happy School" Project and set out tasks for 2025. The project, funded by the Taiwan Fund for Children and Families (TFCF), aims to create a safe, inclusive, and supportive learning environment for students. The event saw the attendance of representatives from the TFCF and 26 beneficiary schools.
With over 70% of their workers being women, trade unions across industrial parks (IPs) in Hoa Binh have been actively safeguarding their legal rights and interests while implementing initiatives to improve their income and well-being.
In recent years, the Hoa Binh provincial General Hospital has continuously innovated itself and improved the quality of medical services to meet the increasing needs of local people. With substantial investments in infrastructure and modern equipment, along with a team of highly qualified doctors and nurses, the hospital has gradually established itself as one of the leading medical units in the Northwestern region and a trusted destination for healthcare for people inside and outside the province.
From mastering the fundamentals of programming to achieving national recognition, the Programming Club of the Le Van Tam Primary School (STAR LVT28) in Hoa Binh city has made remarkable strides in the field of robotics.
