At the working session, leaders and judges of the People’s Court of Area 7 provided an overview of the Court’s organizational structure, functions, duties, and history of establishment under the two-tier urban government model. Students were given detailed insights into courtroom models, trial procedures for different types of cases, the court system from the regional level to the Supreme People’s Court, as well as professional positions within the court and the ethical and professional standards required of judicial officers.

Many practical topics attracted particular interest from students, including regulations on judicial attire, the significance of judges’ robes, the role of the trial panel, the requirements for the appointment of judges in Vietnam, and opportunities for foreign nationals to work within the court system. The question-and-answer session between Vietnamese judges, lecturers, Chinese students, and UEF students contributed to enhanced academic exchange and broadened multidimensional understanding of judicial models in the two countries.

Students’ career-related questions were thoroughly addressed.

The visit helped students consolidate their professional knowledge and inspired them to define clearer career goals in the legal field in the future. At the same time, the activity also carried significant cultural and academic exchange value between UEF students and Chinese students, reflecting the Faculty of Law’s internationalization-oriented approach to education.
