A university that wants to become a 'startup university'

Dr. Tran Viet Anh, Vice Principal in charge of Hung Vuong University, Ho Chi Minh City, gave the above comparison figures at the launching ceremony of the new brand identity and the opening of the new school year of the school on the evening of November 14, to share the school's development orientation in the future.

Mr. Tran Viet Anh said: "Currently, the trend of universities in the world is to create a startup university model. One of the famous schools with this model is MIT in the US. The rate of businesses started by students of this school that are still operating after 5 years is over 70%, while startups in Vietnam have stopped after only 2 years, meaning only 5% continue to operate."

From this reality and trend, Mr. Viet Anh informed that Hung Vuong University, Ho Chi Minh City, is oriented to become a startup university, training students in entrepreneurial spirit and skills to contribute to the startup ecosystem of Vietnam.

With the new logo being a stylized combination of King Hung's crown and the abbreviated school name DHV, the school's leaders believe that this image will help students understand, honor and preserve the nation's traditional values, while also moving towards modern values.

"Along with the announcement of the new logo, we also built a new vision, mission, educational philosophy and core values. Accordingly, in addition to becoming an application-oriented university following the startup university model, the school will build an academic community that maximizes cooperation between students, lecturers, businesses and society. At the same time, we aim to have our majors accredited by prestigious educational accreditation and quality assessment organizations in the world...", Dr. Viet Anh shared.

Also at the ceremony, businesses donated more than 2 billion VND to the school's scholarship fund. The new students who are valedictorians and salutatorians were also awarded scholarships worth 24 million VND for valedictorians (100% of first year tuition) and nearly 17 million VND for salutatorians (70% of first year tuition).
