Admission Calls USTH
University of Science and Technology of Hanoi ( USTH, Vietnam France University) is an advanced-model international public university established by the Decision No. 2067/QĐ-TTg dated December 9th, 2009 of the Prime Minister under the Inter-governmental Agreement between Vietnam and France on November 12th, 2009.
USTH follows the European Bologna Process: Bachelor (3 years, 180 ECTS), Master (2 years, 120 ECTS), PhD (3 years). USTH’s teaching methods are based on high level of practice in research and development laboratories, and close linkage with industries through internships in Vietnam and other countries. The percentage of master students doing internship abroad is up to 60%. All lecturers at USTH hold PhD degrees from prestigious universities in foreign countries, of which 75% are foreign lecturers with international teaching experience. The official teaching language at USTH is English. Annually, USTH provides various attractive scholarship policies for students.
Upon graduation, students will be granted two Master degrees which are widely recognized in the world (one by USTH and one by a French Institution). However, unlike other programs, the degree of International Air Transport Operations Management (IATOM) is only conferred by Ecole Nationale de l'Aviation Civile (ENAC).
