Education and Training Minister Phùng Xuân Nhạ tells the Tiền Phong (Vanguard) that a programme to attract foreign lecturers and students to Viet Nam has yielded modest resultsIn 2006, the Ministry of Education and Training launched what it called an advanced programme to attract foreign lecturers and students to Việt Nam. One of the programme’s goals is to attract foreign lecturers and students to Việt Nam’s universities, raising their standard, effecting technology transfer and fostering integration among students. So foreign students can only come to Việt Nam on exchange programmes or short-time courses. There is an opinion that when it comes to studying aboard, foreign students care about the country’s standing, rather than that of its universities. And what should Việt Nam’s universities do to attract foreign students?
