Based on the opinions exchanged at the Conference, Prof. Dr. Phung Huu Phu - Chairman of the Science and Training Council concluded:
1. The project of compiling and publishing books to celebrate the 80th anniversary of tradition and the 30th anniversary of the establishment of the School was elaborately and seriously constructed, with great vision and significance, practically serving the work of training, scientific research, staff training, contributing to the reputation and prestige of the School. We should not consider this set of books as temporary in nature but should consider it as a special project/publication printed and presented in a unified manner to represent the characteristics of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, creating the reputation and position of the School. In the process of implementing the set of publications, it is necessary to calculate, closely direct, tightly organize combined with the investment of reasonable resources.
2. The Council also agreed and highly supported the proposal to supplement the planning, industry/specialization. Through the proposed contents, it can be seen that the training units have been proactive, based on training practices, market fluctuations, and social requirements to propose to supplement the planning of appropriate industries and specialties. The industries proposed to be added to the planning are all highly applicable industries, suitable to the needs of society.
3. The Council highly appreciated the objectives of the school-level Vietnamese language proficiency assessment project. The objective of the project was to comprehensively assess the Vietnamese language proficiency of students and workers, contributing to improving the quality of training and the ability to integrate internationally. It is recommended that the Project Board receive valuable comments to complete the project, ensuring feasibility and effectiveness in implementation.
4. In addition, the Science and Training Council also recommends that the School Board pay more attention to the development of the High School for the Gifted in Social Sciences and Humanities. Over the past time, the High School for the Gifted has also contributed to the prestige and reputation of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities. We should consider this a place for early training of talents, a key and reliable address for early training of talents, and supplementing quality input sources for universities.
In addition, clearly defining the medium-term vision towards the long-term vision is necessary and important because we are in a period of rapid and continuous change, so thinking must also be constantly renewed. In particular, we need to focus on researching the smart university model and building an innovative university ecosystem. Connection, communication, and sharing are the soul of a university.
The Council of Science and Training, University of Social Sciences and Humanities, VNU has unanimously approved the Project of Compiling and Publishing Books to Celebrate the 80th Anniversary of the School's Tradition and 30th Anniversary of the School's Establishment; Proposal to Supplement the Planning of Majors and Specializations; Project for Vietnamese Proficiency Test. With the dedicated direction and clear strategy from Prof. Dr. Phung Huu Phu and the entire key leadership team, VNU-USSH will certainly grow and continue to affirm its position as one of the leading academic centers in the country, making a positive contribution to the education and science career of Vietnam.
