Dr. Vo Thanh Hai congratulates journalists on Viet Nam's Revolutionary Press Day
Dr. Vo Thanh Hai, DTU Vice-Provost, congratulated the journalists and summarized DTU’s many achievements, including the improvement of the quality of education and the enhancement of broad-based research, together with the increasing publication of international research papers. DTU has entered the top twenty universities with the most publications in ISI-indexed journals in Vietnam, recently listed by the Department of Science and Technology at the Ministry of Science and Technology. In the month of February 2015 alone, according to Webometrics, DTU ranked sixth in Vietnam. The Association of Universities and Colleges of ASEAN (P2A), founded in 2012 by five universities, including DTU, has now expanded, with over 45 ASEAN member universities and colleges. In May, DTU, in collaboration with the Institute for Southeast Asian Studies of the Vietnam Academy of Social Sciences and the P2A, hosted the fourth P2A Partner Meeting and an international seminar entitled: ”The ASEAN Community After 2015: Opportunities and Challenges”.
In 2015, the university has already held two jobs fairs for the first time. In the near future, DTU continues to expand various training and research activities into 2015-2016.
