The international cooperation between BUV and Oxford Brookes University (UK) is one of the typical activities in BUV’s strategy to promote international cooperation in education, in order to fulfill the mission of providing a richer learning experience alongside international training and high-quality education for Vietnamese students. The fact that both schools are eager to participate in more cooperative activities will help enhance the international learning experience at BUV and allow collaborative activities to develop more comprehensively in the future.
As the first and only international university in Vietnam directly awarding bachelor’s degrees from the prestigious University of London and Staffordshire University (UK), BUV is committed to building up strong relationships with organisations all over the world, including businesses, industries and other leading higher education institutions including Oxford Brookes University.
