International course through the eyes of UEFers

Nguyen Huu Canh, an International Business student - Batch of 2017, who has directly experienced the international semester program at UTCC - Phase 1, 2019, confessed: “The knowledge and training quality at this university is excellent, which are in no way inferior to any others. Be confident and have yourself immersed in the semester abroad at UTCC. I was also very proud when many members in our group of Vietnamese students were in the top scores of UTCC.”

The international semester program in Thailand with many looked-for activities

Participating in the international semester, UEF students will experience practical subjects including Modern Innovation Technology, Entrepreneurs in International Business, and Thai Language and Culture.

Moreover, students can visit and study at businesses in Thailand such as The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET), EGAT Learning Center, and Thailand Cultural Center (TCC).

Revealing the "secret" to participate in the international semester in Thailand, Huu Canh recommended: "The key to staying on track and achieving good results is to always proactively self-study and contact teachers to thoroughly understand the requirements of assignments, as well as to be hard-working and divide tasks up to get them done. Besides studying, try to spend time experiencing interesting activities in Thailand. Local people will be valuable sources of guidance for your most worthy experiences”.

A wide range of activities that students can participate in Thailand such as visiting Bangkok, taking a cruise on the ChaoPhraya River, learning about Thai history through a trip to the ancient capital of Ayutthaya, cycling on Koh Kret – an islet on the ChaoPhraya River, savoring local dishes and traditional Thai desserts, visiting a pottery village, and attempting at making your own pottery,...
