Recently, British University Vietnam (BUV) received the 5-star QS Stars certificate at the QS Stars & Recognition Awards (Jakarta, Indonesia). The ceremony was organised to award educational institutions in the Asia-Pacific region that are recognised for improvement, research excellence, reputation impact, and sustainable development.

Furthermore, the Finance and Economics programme of BUV was also honoured to receive a 5-star validation from QS for the criterion of Programme Strength.
Currently, British University Vietnam is the first and the only higher education institution in Vietnam to be certified with an overall rating of 5 stars.

BUV has implemented the compulsory Personal Development Programme (PDP), where students are required to have at least 1 internship in their PDP Transcript along with other activities to complete the degree and be awarded the Career Readiness Certificate upon graduation. Thereby, students are equipped with the necessary skill sets for the industrial revolution 4.0, seizing the opportunity to become future leaders.
The QS Stars & Recognition Awards ceremony is part of the annual education conference – QS Higher Ed Summit: Asia-Pacific region in 2022 with the theme “The Next Big Thing: Addressing New Opportunities and Existing Challenges in APAC Higher Ed.” This year, the summit was organised in the format of a hybrid conference and exhibition hosted by Universitas Indonesia and co-hosted by Prince of Songkla University (PSU) with QS – a global higher education analyst.
