All lecturers hold master degrees and teaching programmes comply with the international standards.

Dang Huu, President of the university’s management board said while Vietnam integrates into the world’s economy, there is great demand for highly qualified human resources who meet international standards.

Teaching programmes will be in English and students will receive diplomas which are second to none in the region.

The university has many faculties including electronics, telecommunications, information technology, biological technology, construction and architecture, environment, economics, business administration, social sciences and humanities.
