In a significant stride towards fostering international collaboration and enriching academic discourse, a delegation comprising esteemed faculty and students from Sungkyunkwan University, South Korea, recently embarked on a notable academic exchange at the University of Economics and Business - Vietnam National University, Hanoi (UEB). This collaborative initiative, hosted at UEB's prestigious campus, served as a platform for insightful discussions, mutual learning, and cultural exchange between the two esteemed institutions.
The academic exchange commenced with a warm reception and orientation session, where representatives from both universities underscored the importance of global partnerships in advancing educational excellence and cross-cultural understanding. Faculty members from Sungkyunkwan University presented their cutting-edge research findings and pedagogical approaches, while UEB counterparts shared insights into their innovative academic programs and impactful research initiatives in economics, business administration, and related disciplines.
Throughout the duration of their visit, the Korean delegation actively participated in a series of interactive workshops, seminars, and specialized lectures organized by UEB. These sessions covered a diverse array of topics ranging from economic policies and regional development strategies to global business trends, entrepreneurship, and sustainable development practices. The exchange of perspectives and scholarly insights not only enriched the academic experience of faculty and students but also fostered a deeper appreciation for the multifaceted challenges and opportunities in today's globalized economy.
Dr. Nguyen Anh Thu, Vice Rector of UEB, highlighted the transformative impact of such academic exchanges on enhancing international cooperation and fostering a global mindset among students and faculty alike. "The visit of Sungkyunkwan University's delegation is a testament to our commitment to nurturing global citizens equipped with diverse perspectives and skills," Dr. Thu remarked.

In addition to academic engagements, the exchange program included cultural immersion activities aimed at promoting intercultural understanding and celebrating the rich heritage of both nations. UEB organized cultural performances, traditional Korean cuisine tastings, and language exchange sessions, providing participants with an opportunity to experience Korean culture firsthand and forge lasting friendships beyond academic collaborations.
The visit also explored avenues for future cooperation between UEB and Sungkyunkwan University, including joint research projects, faculty exchange programs, and student mobility initiatives. These discussions underscored the commitment of both institutions to deepen their partnership and expand opportunities for academic and research collaboration across borders.
Feedback from faculty and students on both sides was overwhelmingly positive, with participants expressing appreciation for the stimulating academic environment, the opportunity to network with international peers, and the enriching cultural experiences.
