The International Institute – Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade (HUIT) was honored to serve as the focal point in organizing a meeting, exchange, and working session with a delegation from Tsinghua University – the top-ranked university in China and among the world's leading academic institutions.

Notably, HUIT is one of only two universities in Vietnam selected by Tsinghua University for a visit and working session during this mission. Being chosen is not only a source of pride but also a recognition of the University's academic prestige, training capacity, and structured international integration orientation, in which the International Institute plays a crucial bridging role.

During the working session, both sides engaged in in-depth discussions regarding long-term cooperation in training and youth-student exchanges between Vietnam and China. The parties agreed that while short-term exchanges represent a starting point, to create a sustainable impact, educational cooperation must be systematically developed with specific mechanisms, roadmaps, and continuity.

The key focus areas include:

• Maintaining annual student exchange programs such as Summer Camps and Winter Camps.

• Developing a comprehensive bilingual training model featuring Chinese lecturers, combining language, culture, and professional competence, and linking training with practical applications and social needs.

The meeting took place in an open, constructive, and collaborative atmosphere. It opened up numerous prospects for broader and deeper cooperation in the future while affirming the pioneering role of HUIT's International Institute in connecting, promoting, and realizing high-quality international educational partnerships.
