The Vietnam National University - Ho Chi Minh City (VNU-HCM) and the New Zealand’s Auckland University of Technology (AUT) signed a memorandum of understanding on August 6.

The pact will expand their current joint projects in research and education that began in 2004.

VNU-HCM Vice President Duong Anh Duc said to maintain its top ranking in the country, international connectivity is a critical priority for his university.

According to AUT Pro-Vice Chancellor Nigel Hemmington, his school has effectively collaborated with universities in Vietnam, including the VNU HCM, for 23 years.

On the occasion, the New Zealand delegation attended the graduation of students trained in information and technology under a joint programme between the VNU-HCM and the AUT.

Implemented in 2008, the programme has thus far trained more than 100 Vietnamese students.-VNA
