HKUST and VinUni Sign Extended Student Exchange Agreement at University Level

October 7, 2024

We are excited to announce a significant milestone in our global academic partnerships! In September, VinUniversity and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) officially signed a student exchange agreement at the university-wide level in Hong Kong. This agreement builds upon the ongoing collaboration between VinUni College of Business and Management and HKUST School of Business, expanding the exchange opportunities to students from all colleges at both universities.

As part of this ongoing partnership, last year and this year, HKUST students participated in our inbound student programs during the summer, while 8 VinUni students were sent to HKUST for a semester-long exchange. This successful exchange has strengthened ties between our institutions and enriched students’ academic experiences.

Starting from the summer of 2025, students from both universities will continue to be selected annually to participate in semester-based or summer exchange programs. This partnership will offer students unique opportunities to:

  • Explore diverse cultures and broaden their global perspectives.
  • Develop a global mindset essential for future leadership roles.
  • Build lasting connections with peers and faculty from different academic and cultural backgrounds.

These exchange programs go beyond academics, providing students with valuable experiences that will prepare them to confidently integrate into new environments and thrive in an increasingly interconnected world.

We look forward to seeing how this collaboration will foster mutual learning, personal growth, and the continued development of global leaders in both institutions.
