Myanmar Students Experience Global Higher Education at Hanoi University of Science and Technology

On the morning of October 19, Prof. Le Anh Tuan, President of Hanoi University of Science and Technology (HUST), welcomed a delegation led by the Ambassador of Myanmar to Vietnam, representatives from Myanmar ministries and agencies, and 36 outstanding Myanmar students visiting and working at the university.

During the working session, Prof. Le Anh Tuan shared HUST's vision of becoming one of Asia's leading universities, leveraging its research strengths in artificial intelligence, semiconductors, advanced materials, sustainable energy, health sciences, and digital transformation. He also expressed his desire to foster closer cooperation with universities in Myanmar through student and faculty exchanges as well as joint research projects.
  Prof. Le Anh Tuan emphasized: "Vietnam and Myanmar are both ASEAN member states, sharing a long-standing friendship and a common commitment to regional cooperation and development. We believe that education is one of the most enduring bridges of that friendship, and that bridge is always present here at HUST."

The HUST President expressed his delight that many Myanmar students have graduated from HUST and gone on to pursue promising academic and career opportunities. Some have continued their master's studies at HUST, while others have secured scholarships at prestigious international universities. These talented students are a source of pride and honor for the institution.

Leading the Myanmar delegation, Wai Linn, Ambassador of Myanmar to Vietnam, affirmed: "Our cooperation brings benefits not only to the students and faculty of both sides, but also holds great significance for both nations." He also expressed his honor in partnering with HUST—Vietnam's leading science and technology university.
  Engaging directly with the Myanmar students, HUST leaders shared information and answered questions regarding the university's core mission, how a pioneering and leading university operates, and the vibrant extracurricular activities available to international students.
  Currently, HUST partners with approximately 120 international universities and research institutes. In 2026, HUST welcomed around 650 international exchange students. During their visit, the delegation of outstanding Myanmar students toured the university's laboratories, learned about academic programs and scholarship opportunities, and interacted with HUST faculty and students.
  As part of its internationalization strategy, HUST actively attracts and recruits international scientists, lecturers, and students. Every year, the university invites professors from foreign universities to teach HUST students, offering learners access to global knowledge right in Vietnam. When Myanmar students enroll in high-quality programs at HUST, they likewise have the opportunity to engage and learn alongside talented peers and renowned professors.
