Receiving two professors from Texas Tech University (USA)

At the meeting, Prof. Dr. Pham Quang Minh briefly introduced the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, a long-standing address in Vietnam for research and training in Social Sciences and Humanities. The Department of Archival Studies and Office Management of the University is also the leading unit in Vietnam for training in Archival Studies. The University aims to become a research university, so learning and cooperation with foreign universities are very important. The Rector proposed a number of cooperative activities between the two universities such as exchanging students, lecturers, and conducting joint research.

In particular, the Principal proposed the idea of ​​co-organizing a conference on a topic related to the Vietnam War such as American veterans, the anti-war movement of the American people; or a topic related to Archival Studies such as the privatization of the archives industry, oral archives, electronic archives...

On behalf of Texas Tech University, Dr. Ron Milam expressed his thanks and approval for the suggestions of Prof. Dr. Pham Quang Minh. He said that the Vietnam War is a topic of great interest to the Institute of Peace and Conflict as well as the Vietnam Archives Center. An exhibition or seminar on one of the two above-mentioned fields would also contribute to strengthening the understanding between the Vietnamese and American peoples in general. He and Dr. Stephen F. Maxner will discuss in more detail with the School's Department of Archival Science and Office Administration about specific steps of cooperation in the future.
