Ton Duc Thang University has become the only representative from Vietnam to be named among the top 10 excellent research universities in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), according to US Web of Science data.
Ho Chi Minh City-based Ton Duc Thang University is the sole Vietnamese representative to enter the 2020 Academic Ranking for World Universities (ARWU)’s top 800, that was released by Shanghai Ranking Consultancy last weekend.
