On behalf of the university's leadership, Associate Professor Dr. Nguyen Van Kim expressed gratitude to the Chung Soo Foundation for choosing the University of Social Sciences and Humanities as the first institution in Vietnam to award scholarships to its students, encouraging them in their studies and personal development. Over the past seven years, the Chung Soo scholarship has helped hundreds of students overcome difficulties and realize their dreams. The Vice Rector also noted that this activity is even more significant in the context of the positive results of Vietnam-Korea cooperation; the University of Social Sciences and Humanities is also on the path to internationalizing its fields of activity, with one of its priorities being training and research in regional studies, including Korean studies.
