Fulbright Vietnam to enroll 50 students for first academic year

(VNF) - Fulbright University Vietnam (FUV) will enroll 50 students for the bachelor degree of the first academic year at the end of next August. The announcement was recently made by FUV.

Accordingly, most of the university’s curricula are instructed in English and university lecturers are from the world’s prestigious universities.

The university’s curricula are designed to encourage students and lecturers to engage in discussions, allowing students to speak out their minds, said Dam Bich Thuy, president of FUV.

Before entering the first academic year slated for the fall of 2019, the 50 students will be required to experience the co-design year under which the university’s lecturers will join hands with students to determine the foundation for the university culture where students are engaged and empowered at FUV.

All students of the co-design year will have the opportunity to win the FUV Founding Scholarship, which comprises a full scholarship to participate in the Co-Design Year 2018-2019 and a partial scholarship for the students’ remaining four years at FUV worth approximately US$5,000 per year.

Specially, the students who fail to meet the requirements of English proficiency due to family backgrounds or economic conditions will be supported to improve their English skills in the initial phase.

The applications for admission are to be available by December 1.

FUV is considered one of the project to enhance people-to-people ties, strengthen mutual understanding, cooperation and friendship between the two peoples of Vietnam and the US, as affirmed in the Joint Statement signed by President Tran Dai Quang and President Donald Trump on November 12./.
