Leadership and cultural immersion: University College London (UCL) students reflect on an inspiring summer at VinUni

July 15, 2024

 

“This is a great experience overall that I recommend to every single person not just from universities but in the world. Seeing how people from completely different cultures, completely new backgrounds and unique environments operate in such a hardworking and passionate way, which inspires me. Working on a group project with completely new people, which helped me gain my leadership and teamwork skills. These memories last me a lifetime.” – shared by a University College London (UCL) student.

In just 8 short days, UCL students immersed themselves in inspiring activities rich in cultural sharing and leadership development.

  • Cultural connection through a series of lectures from VinUni professors and tours of cultural heritage sites in Hanoi, Ninh Binh and Quang Ninh.

  • Spirit of leadership was ignited through group projects where UCL and VinUni students, from two different countries, learned, developed, and created meaningful projects together.

These experiences not only broadened their horizons but also left a profound mark on each student, igniting a passion and aspiration for cross-border leadership.
