On behalf of the University’s

who had officially joined the National Economics University community.

According to Assoc. Prof. Dr. Bui Huy Nhuong, over nearly 70 years of growth and development,
National Economics University has established itself as one of the leading
educational institutions in economics, management, and business administration in
Vietnam.

Assoc. Prof. Bui Huy Nhuong, President of National Economics
University, stated that, in the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, higher education must
adapt to the trend of digital transformation, using technology as a foundation to improve the quality
of education and expand access to knowledge for everyone, anytime,
anywhere.

The distance education program delivered through
E-learning has been identified as one of the strategic steps toward fulfilling
that mission. With a modern, flexible, and user-friendly online learning system, the
University is committed to providing a quality learning environment for those facing constraints of
time and location, particularly working personnel and students living far away. Learners
will have access to a repository of electronic lectures, digitized materials, and forums for
academic exchange, along with support from experienced lecturers.

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Bui Huy Nhuong emphasized that choosing
distance education is an important decision that requires initiative, discipline,
and sustained effort from learners. He also expressed confidence that, with
determination and the University’s support and guidance, the new students would achieve
well-deserved results and view this not merely as a course but also as a journey
of personal development, knowledge expansion, and connection with a broad academic
community.
