The University of Social Sciences and Humanities considers student scientific research (SRC) an important activity in improving the quality of training. Not only is it a regular activity, attracting the participation of a large number of students in the whole school, in recent years, SRC has had many innovations in organization as well as development orientation to overcome the movement, go into depth with many works of good quality, diverse topics, close to reality and major research contents of majors. At this conference, once again affirming the above policy, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Lam Ba Nam - Vice Rector - said: "To build a school into a research-oriented university, student research must be considered a basic and important activity to improve the quality of training and the position of the school... However, to affirm, exist and develop, we must not only call for lifelong learning and a learning society in general. Real learning and only real learning can help us have high-quality human resources, capable of integrating in the current context of globalization.”.
Over the years, the School Youth Union has actively participated in supporting students in doing research. According to Mr. Duc Anh - Head of the School Youth Union's professional department, every year, the Youth Union regularly organizes seminars to guide students on the process of implementing a research topic, from how to choose a topic, implementation methods to presentation skills. Topics following the direction of the Youth Union or contributing to the development of the youth movement are also supported and facilitated by the School Youth Union. Based on the evaluation results of the Student Research Conference at all levels, topics with good results according to the above directions will be awarded by the School Youth Union.
This year, 1026 students participated in scientific research (accounting for 18.9% of full-time students in the whole school) with 697 reports. The implementation of scientific research in faculties started in November 2008. In March and April 2009, the conference of scientific research students at the faculty and department levels was seriously conducted.

This year's student scientific reports also received many compliments from teachers. Associate Professor, Dr. Vu Thi Phung (Head of the Tourism Studies - Management Science - Archival Studies and Office Administration - Library Information Subcommittee) said that students have chosen many meaningful research issues, both suitable for their careers and aimed at meeting social needs. That shows that they have awareness and enthusiasm, are passionate about scientific research, know how to explore and update new information, are creative, and have a dedication to their profession, to the training issues of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities in particular, as well as many major issues of the country. Regarding the skills of implementing topics, students have known how to apply and reasonably apply basic research methods, know how to check and evaluate sources of documents, and know how to approach problems from theory to practice. This has significantly contributed to the quality of student research projects this year. Associate Professor, Dr. Vu Thi Phung also added: "Another remarkable improvement compared to previous years is the students' excellent presentation skills. Not only are they very confident in presenting their reports and answering questions from the seniors, but they also show a high spirit of learning and inquiry. This is truly valuable, especially for those working in science."
Agreeing with the above opinion, Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Vu Hao (Head of the Philosophy - Political Science - Psychology - Sociology Subcommittee) affirmed that this year's student scientific conference was very well organized, with a large number of participating reports, many of which were of high quality. He said:“There are quite a few first-year students who have participated in scientific research and even won awards. That is surprising but also very encouraging and should be encouraged.”

However, regarding the awards, Associate Professor, Dr. Doan Duc Phuong (Head of the Literature - Linguistics - Journalism and Communication Subcommittee) said that there should be higher awards for collective awards. Associate Professor, Dr. Vu Thi Phung suggested that within the allowable scope, funding should be increased to support a scientific research topic of students so that they can do better. Teachers who have guided many students with good quality works should be given attention and commendation by the school. The council participating in evaluating the works of students who won school-level awards should have the participation of staff from units so that the evaluation is more accurate.
At the end of the conference, the School awarded 07 collective prizes and 63 individual prizes, including 13 first prizes, 21 second prizes and 29 third prizes. The School also awarded 05 prizes for topics that have practical significance for student learning and activities.
