AIU Signed MoUs between India and Vietnam: AIU is pleased to Sign an MOU with Association of Vietnames universities at HO CHi Minh City, Vietnam to promote international Collaborations between Indian and Vietnames universities. This will promote Faculty and Students Mobility Between India and Vietnam.

India is famous for its thousands of years of knowledge and learning. Hundreds of years ago, Buddhist monks and scholars, including Vietnamese, traveled thousands of miles to Takshashila, the holy land of Buddhism, in search of knowledge. India is always ready to share development experiences and techniques with partners including Vietnam.

It has provided over 200 scholarships and training courses to students through bilateral aid mechanisms. India has also supported several facilities for schools in Vietnam. The Indian government helped Vietnam establish the Vietnam-India English Language Training Center (VICELT) in Danang in 2007 and donated a high-performance computer to Hanoi University of Science and Technology in 2013.

Universities between the two countries also coordinate student exchange activities, educational counseling and career guidance. Last year, the Embassy co-hosted an education fair with the Vietnam National University – Hanoi to promote knowledge sharing between leading Indian and Vietnamese institutions.

The two governments also cooperate in many other areas, including technology, agriculture and security. In 2011, thanks to India’s support, Hanoi opened the Center for Advanced Resources for Information Technology. India also provided US$150,000 to support the establishment of the Indira Gandhi Hi-Tech Crime Lab.

Experts from Vietnam National University – Hanoi and Indian education organizations also gave presentations on Vietnam-India education cooperation, National Education Policy of India and learning experiences.
