At the three Vientnamese universities we were given the opportunity to present the university, our professional acitivites, and student life in Sopron. The discussions also affected the possibilities of cooperation, such as joint research programmes and student or staff exchange. During the first programme in Xuan Mai, the representatives of our university participated in a students and company meeting workshop, organized by the local university, where a short introduction about our institute was held and also the scholarship opportunities in Hungary were presented.
Later we also introduced the engineering field, where Hue University’s leadership showed great interest in natural building materials, as well as in the development of wood and bamboo-based building materials. They expressed their strong desire to submit a joint Erasmus application.
At the Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology, the dean of the Faculty of Applied Science also participated, where the the foundations of cooperation agreement between the two Universities were set.
