In his opening remarks, the Principal mentioned the general context when the Covid-19 pandemic made the events at the beginning of the school year more "special" than every year, because teachers and students of all systems were forced to get used to all activities taking place on an online platform. However, the Principal emphasized that the opening ceremony of the 2021-2022 school year will still be a special moment to mark a new milestone in the journey of building and developing the School, "where we make breakthroughs together while still maintaining the Humanity".

After 76 years of tradition and 26 years of construction, the two words "Humanity" have become a prestigious brand in the Vietnamese higher education community. Overcoming the difficulties of the early days of national integration, in the mid-1990s, generations of cadres, civil servants and students of the School made efforts to complete the organizational system, determined to build a training program system, resolutely innovate educational philosophy, and devote themselves to expanding domestic and international connections. To this day, the image of a higher education institution named the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, VNU has been affirmed with nearly 550 cadres, more than 8,000 students, nearly 2,000 students, postgraduates and more than 500 domestic and international partners.
