The University of Stirling, the strategic key awarding partner of BUV, has achieved the prestigious AACSB accreditation, positioning it among the top 6% of business schools globally.
Upholding Global Excellence
The recent AACSB accreditation, placing the University of Stirling among the top 6% of business schools globally, signifies the highest quality standards in business programmes. AACSB International, the leading accrediting body for business schools globally, lauded the University of Stirling for its commitment to excellence in higher education.
AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business) is renowned as the oldest and most prestigious accrediting body for business education, not only in the United States but also globally. Universities accredited by AACSB must meet rigorous standards regarding academic facilities, curriculum, and faculty quality.

Professor Sir Gerry McCormac, Principal and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Stirling, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “Earning AACSB accreditation marks the beginning of another significant chapter for our university and Management School. The benefits of joining the AACSB community are immense, enriching our staff, students, partners, and the wider region we serve.”
The University of Stirling and its Management School are among over 1,000 institutions across 60 countries with AACSB accreditation.
Long-Term Strategic Partnership

Currently, the University of Stirling serves as one of BUV’s esteemed awarding partners, alongside prestigious institutions such as the University of London, Staffordshire University, and Arts University Bournemouth.
By partnering with BUV, Stirling extends its reach to Vietnam, providing Vietnamese students with access to a world-class British education without the need to study abroad. The partnership enhances the employability of BUV graduates by providing them with a highly respected degree that is valued by employers worldwide. Stirling’s strong industry connections and career support services can be leveraged to assist BUV students in securing internships and job placements, both in Vietnam and internationally.

The collaboration also facilitates academic and cultural exchange between the two institutions through joint research projects, guest lectures, and study-abroad programmes. This exposure to diverse perspectives and international best practices enriches the learning experience and fosters a global mindset among BUV’s academic community.
