On behalf of NEU’s faculty and staff, Dr. Vu Trong Nghia, Head of the Department of Communications, warmly welcomed the teachers, parents, and students of Yen Dung 1 High School, Bac Giang, who were visiting and taking part in the “A Day as an NEU Student” program.

Dr. Vu Trong Nghia emphasized that, over more than 68 years of development, NEU has consistently maintained its position as one of Vietnam’s largest centers for training and professional development for economic management and business administration personnel. Throughout its history, NEU has educated many of the country’s leaders and talented business managers, making substantial contributions to the country’s development during the period of international integration.

In a friendly conversation with the students, Dr. Vu Trong Nghia noted that many outstanding students from Yen Dung 1 High School, Bac Giang, had become NEU students and had all secured very good positions after graduation. This demonstrates the many strong ties between the two institutions and NEU’s enduring role as a trusted destination for Yen Dung 1 High School students. Dr. Vu Trong Nghia also expressed his hope that, following today’s visit and experiences at NEU, the students would work even harder to achieve the best possible academic results, and that he would see them again at the start of the upcoming academic year.
