First, the Embassy of India will support 2 young experts of VNU-USSH to go to India for postgraduate studies in the ancient languages ​​of Pali and Sankrit, with the goal of training experts in these important ancient languages ​​in the translation, annotation and research of Champa and Phu Nam history in Central and Southern Vietnam. Second, the Indian Embassy will arrange for an Indian professor to teach at least one year at VNU-USSH in the fields of history, civilization, and ancient languages.
Third, both sides will support Indian students to do internships and earn credits at VNU-USSH, as well as VNU-USSH students to do internships at Indian universities. This is a practical activity to promote academic exchanges between lecturers and students from both sides.
Fourth, both sides will jointly organize a workshop on the Champa Kingdom in Central Vietnam in history. This activity is the first step to lay the foundation for the orientation of building an Information Center for the My Son relic complex.
Fifth, at an appropriate time in the near future, Ambassador Sandeep Arya will visit VNU-USSH and talk to lecturers and students majoring in Indian Studies. This will be a great encouragement for staff and students of the industry.
