During the meeting, the two sides discussed opportunities to strengthen connections between TDTU and leading Cuban universities. Potential areas of cooperation include student recruitment and scholarship opportunities for Cuban students to study in Vietnam; student and faculty exchanges; short-term academic programs; cultural exchange activities; and collaborative education and research in biotechnology, medicine, agriculture, environmental science, economics, engineering, and the social sciences.
International cooperation
TDTU focuses on collaborating with higher education institutions and international organizations to implement undergraduate and postgraduate programs, as well as short-term exchange programs; carry out joint research projects, thereby expanding a network of long-term and sustainable partnerships to enhance the quality of training, research, and the university's international standing.
Under the agreement, the two universities will collaborate on a range of key initiatives, including student and faculty exchanges, the development of undergraduate and graduate academic programs, and joint research projects. The partnership will also encompass the co-organization of scientific conferences and seminars, short-term academic programs, university–industry collaboration, and the promotion of technology transfer in areas of mutual interest.
Through the 3+0 joint program, students will study full-time at TDTU following the study program, textbooks, and academic standards of the University of Waikato, and will receive a Bachelor of Business degree awarded by the University of Waikato upon graduation. Currently, the program offers 3 majors including Finance, Digital Business, and Supply Chain Management - all of which are fields with high human resource demand in the context of digital transformation and international economic integration.
