VNU-UEB's Postgraduate Training Approach: From Books to Business

16:01 25/12/2024

Looking for a doctoral program that bridges the gap between academic rigor and real-world impact? Discover the unique value of UEB's PhD programs in Economic Management and Political Economy, renowned for their practical, hands-on approach to graduate training. 

What are Economic Management and Political Economy?

Economic Management studies and applies principles, methods, and tools for managing economic activities within businesses, organizations, and government agencies. It aims to optimize efficiency, allocate resources effectively, and ensure sustainable development in an increasingly complex economic landscape.

Political Economy examines the interplay between economics and politics, focusing on how political policies and institutions influence economic activity and vice versa. Drawing on economics, political science, and sociology, it provides a deeper understanding of macroeconomic issues and globalization.

→ Both programs share a focus on leadership development, economic analysis, strong theoretical foundations, practical application, relevance to globalization, diverse career opportunities, and experiential learning.

→ Key differences lie in their scope (management practices vs. economic-political systems), research focus (businesses and organizations vs. government and international institutions), curriculum, and career goals (management and consulting vs. policymaking and research).

UEB's doctoral programs in Economic Management and Political Economy offer a unique blend of rigorous academic training and practical, hands-on experience.

Strong Theoretical Foundation

Our postgraduate programs are built on a solid foundation of modern economic theory.  Students engage with cutting-edge economic thought and effective management models used globally, covering both macroeconomic issues and microeconomic management.  Our faculty comprises leading experts and researchers in Economic Management and Political Economy who provide not only knowledge but also valuable practical insights.  We encourage and reward innovation in research, empowering students to develop impactful, relevant dissertations.

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Truc Le, Chairman of VNU-UEB , recognizes outstanding PhD students.

Hands-on Experience

UEB's postgraduate training extends beyond the classroom.  We believe in providing students with practical experience in businesses and organizations.  For example, recent field trips to Toan Phat Joint Stock Company (a modern plastics manufacturer) and the Sinh Duoc Cooperative (a natural pharmaceuticals producer) in Ninh Binh provided invaluable hands-on learning opportunities.  Students gained insights into efficient economic management in a competitive business environment and the importance of integrating economic, cultural, and health considerations.  These experiences bridge the gap between theory and practice, underscoring UEB's commitment to developing professionals capable of addressing real-world economic challenges.
 

Postgraduate students gain practical experience during a field trip.

At UEB, doctoral candidates embark on a journey to become leading experts in their fields.  Our Economic Management and Political Economy programs provide access to advanced knowledge and a practical, real-world learning environment.
