British University Vietnam is proud of its extensive partnership network in the corporate world and the global education market.
Chris Jeffery, Chief Academic Officer: “British University Vietnam believes in the true meaning of partnership, the BUV International Office is part of our further development in this area. The team provides a full one-stop-shop for institution partners as well as students. Vietnam is an exciting, promising, energetic country with ambitious plans for further development. No matter the field, no matter the interest, the country will provide an excellent experience for students and give them an insight into one of the fastest-growing economies in the world.”
