11. Summary of thesis results:

The thesis is designed with 3 chapters to build a policy to attract R&D human resources for the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology through the application of social mobility theory.

Through clarifying basic concepts and relationships such as: R&D human resources, human resources policy, R&D human resources attraction policy, social mobility theory, and applying social mobility theory in human resources policy... the thesis has built a scientific theoretical framework on applying social mobility theory in designing R&D human resources attraction policy for research institutes.

From the current status of the policy to attract R&D human resources and the current status of S&T human resources of the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology, the author analyzes and clarifies the current status of the attraction policy, as well as the causes leading to the limitations in attracting R&D human resources here, including: lack of institutions that provide worthy rewards for the scientific contributions of R&D human resources, lack of satisfactory forms to encourage the mobility of R&D human resources, and lack of "scientific attraction" as a national S&T center.

From the approach of social mobility theory, the thesis proposes a policy to attract R&D human resources for the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology focusing on the philosophy of facilitating the circulation of brainpower between science and technology organizations instead of the idea of ​​​​reserving brainpower or preventing brain drain. Specific policy solutions will focus on the following contents: Promoting programs to connect research institutes and enterprises in promoting R&D human resources, hiring experts outside VAST to participate in long-term research activities, reconnecting R&D human resources who have moved to other S&T organizations, preferential recruitment according to S&T tasks based on the R&D human resources information network, academy scholarships and establishing "attractive poles" of scientific culture for the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology.

12. Practical applicability: The thesis serves as a reference for students and graduate students related to the major of Science and Technology Management. At the same time, the research results of the thesis can be considered for application and implementation in the management of science and technology human resources at the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology.

13. Further research directions: continue to research and propose solutions to apply social mobility theory to build R&D human resource management policies at the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology.

11. Summary of results of the thesis:

The thesis is prepared with 3 chapters to build policies to attract R&D human resources at Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology through the application of social mobility theory.

Through clarifying concepts and basic relationships such as R&D human resources, human resources policies, R&D human resources policy, social mobility theory, and application of social mobility theory in human resources policy ... the thesis has developed a scientific theoretical framework on the application of social mobility theory in the design of policies to attract R&D human resources of the Academy.

From the reality of R&D human resource policies and S&T human resources of Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology, the author analyzes and clarifies the current situation as well as the reasons for the limitations in attracting R&D human resources, including: the lack of appropriate methods for institutions that give rewards for scientific contributions of R&D human resources, the lack of incentives for mobility of R&D human resources, and the lack of "scientific attraction" as a role of a national S&T Center.

From the approach of social mobility theory, the thesis proposes policies to attract R&D human resources to the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology, focusing on the philosophy of facilitating the circulation of gray matter among public science and technology instead of the idea of ​​gray matter preservation or anti-brain drain. Specific policy solutions will focus on the following details: developing joint programs between research institutes and businesses in promoting R&D human resources mobility, hiring experts outside VAST to participate in long-term research and training activities, reconnecting R&D human resources who have transferred to other S&T, offer organizations preferential recruitment under S&T tasks based on R&D human resources information network scholarship of the Academy, and establish "attention" about scientific culture for Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology.

12. Practical applicability: The thesis serves as a reference for graduate students related to the Science and Technology Management major. At the same time, the research results of the thesis can be considered for application and implementation in the management of S&T human resources at the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology.

13. Further study: continue to research and propose solutions to apply social mobility theory to develop R&D human resource management policy at Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology.
