Representatives from UEF and HUTECH recognize the participants’ sustained efforts throughout their academic journey
The Pre-Doctoral Programme Cohort 02 was delivered over nearly three months with an intensive learning schedule, including 4 specialized workshops and 10 sessions with leading lecturers and experts such as Prof. Dr. Nguyen Xuan Hung, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Pham Van Viet, Dr. Bui Quoc Liem, and Dr. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Mien. The programme focused on research methodology, research topic development, academic writing, and proposal development.
Participants in Cohort 02 came from diverse fields, including Economics, Business Administration, Finance and Banking, Marketing, English Language, Education, Law, and more. This diversity created an open academic environment where perspectives could be exchanged, challenged, and developed through an interdisciplinary approach. 100% of participants successfully completed the programme and received certificates, demonstrating their serious investment and commitment to pursuing an academic research pathway.
Representatives of Cohort 02 participants share the knowledge and values gained throughout the programme
The Pre-Doctoral Programme has successfully fostered a connected academic community where participants share common goals for long-term development. Following the closing ceremony, lecturers will continue to accompany participants by supporting the revision of working papers and proposals, helping them strengthen their applications to PhD programmes in Vietnam and abroad. This represents one of the programme’s lasting values, as learning does not end in the classroom but continues throughout each individual’s academic development journey.
UEF awards certificates to Cohort 02 participants, supporting their journey toward international academic development
With these achievements, the Pre-Doctoral Programme continues to demonstrate its important role as a foundation for developing research capacity, approaching international academic standards, and gradually realizing participants’ goals for advanced study.
The Pre-Doctoral Programme Cohort 03/2026 is expected to commence in late August 2026, providing an opportunity for individuals with aspirations for advanced academic development to join and continue their journey.
