Let's take a look back at the outstanding events that marked important changes in the University's development direction over the past year, as compiled by the University's website.
Professor Dr. Nguyen Van Khanh has been reappointed as Rector. The Vice Rectors for the new term 2009-2014 are: Associate Professor Dr. Vu Duc Nghieu, Associate Professor Dr. Nguyen Kim Son, and Associate Professor Dr. Nguyen Van Kim.
With the experience inherited from previous terms, combined with the youthful energy of its members, the new Board of Directors is expected to continue achieving success with the University, leading the University of Social Sciences and Humanities to remain a pioneering institution in many fields within the Vietnam National University, Hanoi, and affirming its high position in the Vietnamese and international university communities.
The leadership personnel of the functional departments and divisions within the administrative block have also been reorganized. In addition, the school has completed the 2009 training program for leadership and management staff.
Since October 2009, you can connect to the internet from anywhere on the campus at Thuong Dinh (336 Nguyen Trai, Thanh Xuan, Hanoi). Along with the investment in building high-quality computer labs for students, the wireless network has further enhanced the learning conditions for students at the university. This event marks a new milestone on the university's path towards internationalizing the quality of its education.
This is the first joint training program between the University of Social Sciences and Humanities and the University of Foreign Languages - Vietnam National University, Hanoi. Upon completion of the program, students will receive two official degrees: a Bachelor of Foreign Languages and a Bachelor of Tourism Studies.
This initiative realizes the policy of interconnectedness and diversification of training types, expanding learning and career opportunities for students, helping them meet both employer requirements: foreign language skills and specialized knowledge. This is also a positive direction for training to keep pace with societal needs.
This is the first course within the framework of the 2+2 international collaborative training program between the University of Social Sciences and Humanities and Guangxi University (China). The course lasts 4 years, the first 2 years at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, and the following 2 years at Guangxi University. The degree is awarded by Guangxi University.
This program will contribute to expanding learning opportunities for Vietnamese students, leveraging the strengths of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, and creating a high-quality workforce to serve national development.
In 2009, the first cohort of Bachelor of Linguistics students were trained under the 2+2 method, in which students spent the first two years studying at a partner university in China (Guangxi University for Nationalities) and the following two years studying at the University, where they also received their degrees.
Also this year, the School signed an agreement on a 2+2 training program with Chungwoon University (South Korea).
As one of the University's major and representative international conferences in 2009, it was jointly organized by numerous French and Vietnamese partners, including: Nantes University, Le Mans University, Angers University (France), the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, the International Faculty (Vietnam National University, Hanoi), and several other units of Vietnam National University, Hanoi. Over 100 delegates attended, including French and Vietnamese scientists from various fields such as History, Sociology, Psychology, Management Science, Educational Science, Tourism, Geography, Literature, Linguistics, Economics, etc.

(Photo: NA/USSH)" title="The workshop once again affirmed the organizational capacity and academic prestige of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities with domestic and international partners. (Photo: NA/USSH)" width="580"/>The voices of Vietnamese and French scientists converged in affirming that an interdisciplinary approach and interdisciplinary research in science in general, and in the social sciences and humanities in particular, is an inevitable trend and an advantage in solving major problems of real life.
The workshop yielded valuable experiences at the international level and predicted the development trends of interdisciplinary research in the social sciences and humanities.
This event further affirmed the organizational capacity and academic prestige of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities with domestic and international partners. This is particularly important in the context of the University's development towards becoming a research university and its policy of expanding cooperation, collaborative research, and scientific information exchange with universities and scientists worldwide.
The issue of adapting training products to the labor market has been a long-standing concern for Vietnamese higher education. The conference "Training to Meet Social Needs," held once again, demonstrates the university's determination to find answers to this problem, based on finding common ground between employers, training institutions, and relevant ministries and departments.
From various perspectives, through elaborate presentations illustrated with specific data, the opinions expressed showed the deep concern of the conference delegates regarding one of the major topics in education today. Is there a disconnect between university education and the human resource demands of socio-economic life? Are students weak in skills and lacking in practical application? Is education lagging behind societal needs?... Many solutions were proposed, but first, let's begin by recognizing and understanding correctly: What does it mean for education to meet societal demands?
Accordingly, the two sides will establish academic exchange activities, jointly participate in the development and implementation of training and research programs and projects in common fields, exchange students and research experts, and exchange scientific information and documents.

In April 2009, SJSU donated over 130 books related to social work to the Faculty of Sociology as learning and reference materials for staff and students. The two sides currently plan to cooperate in developing a master's program in social work in Vietnam with the participation of UNICEF and the Vietnamese Volunteers Organization (VSO) from the UK.
This is one of 11 universities with which the University of Social Sciences and Humanities signed official cooperation agreements in 2009, bringing the total number of international partners of the university to 110 institutions.
