In addition to Youth Union activities, studying and researching, Hai also enjoys participating in volunteer activities. In her free time, she often reads books, watches movies and attends self-development courses.
The young girl chose to live life to the fullest in every moment, because she always believes: "Every day you live in this world, just know how to cherish the people around you, care about what you need to care about, happiness will surely be waiting for you right ahead."
When filling out her university application, Information Management was not Hai’s first choice. However, after spending time at school, she gradually developed deeper thoughts and found the appeal of the field of study.
Understanding more about the field of study, Hai quickly determined the correct and effective learning method. For her, information management is a field of study with a specific curriculum, a clear learning process and especially, it is highly practical in today's society. This is a field of study that intersects the fields of information science, information technology, communications and management.
Hai currently has an excellent academic score of 3.7/4.0 and was awarded a certificate of merit "Student with the highest academic results in the 2021-2022 school year" from the President of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Vietnam National University, Hanoi.

She received many semesters of academic encouragement scholarships from the school. She also received some non-budgetary scholarships such as the Japan Yamada Scholarship and the BIDV Scholarship.

Hai (far left), Dr. Nguyen Thi Kim Dung (far right), lecturer of the Faculty of Information and Library Science and students of the faculty won prizes at the 2023 School-level Student Scientific Research Competition.

When participating in scientific research, Hai often chooses to work with a group of friends. The research topics she often chooses are directly related to her major. Specifically, the research issues are information, customer information management or digital transformation, etc.
Hai shared his opinion: “Doing scientific research helps us students accumulate some experience such as writing reports, collecting information, developing teamwork and presentation skills… These experiences help improve our professional knowledge and soft skills, making us more confident after graduation.”

According to Hai, during the process of participating in scientific research, she encountered certain advantages and difficulties.
In terms of advantages, there is the attention and dedicated guidance from lecturers at the faculty; finding documents is easier thanks to open learning resources in the 4.0 era; many policies support and encourage students to participate in scientific research from the University of Social Sciences and Humanities and Vietnam National University, Hanoi.
Regarding difficulties, sometimes when choosing a topic, Hai needs to analyze very carefully to be able to choose a topic that has new points and high practicality.
Because we often conduct research in groups, sometimes there are conflicting opinions. However, after going through many times like that, Hai and his friends have more objective perspectives on the research problem.
Going to school, working, and taking on additional positions also disrupted her daily routine a month before the project submission and presentation date.
About to finish four years of university, Hai shared that she is completely satisfied with what she has and is having: a close-knit and happy family, a major with dedicated, thoughtful teachers and friendly friends, a great group of companions, laughing together, crying together, chatting together from night to morning.
“'Days go, months run, years fly. Time flows and never returns, just like the Russian proverb says, time waits for no one, it passes quickly, never coming back to us.
Youth is for happiness, not for regret. Always be yourself, always be happy, free and become the version that makes you happiest, my friend", Hai advised.
