Vietnamese universities historically graduate students steeped in theory, but needing more real-world skills. To drive Vietnam’s continued economic growth, university graduates need to be fully prepared for today’s competitive global economy. In recognition of this, the Government of Vietnam enacted a law in 2018 calling for reforms to higher education. Through the Partnership for Higher Education Reform with Vietnam’s three largest universities and U.S. higher education institutions, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) advances reforms to improve the quality and market-relevance of higher education to drive lasting growth.
