One of the highlighted strengths of EIU is that 100% of its programs with graduates have been accredited and meet quality standards, including two programs – Electrical Engineering and Data communications and Computer Networks – with certain criteria scoring a perfect 100%. Regarding the criterion “Psychological, Social Environment, and Campus Landscape,” EIU scored 6 out of 7 – an impressive result rarely achieved by other universities in Vietnam. Compared to its first cycle of accreditation, the second cycle has shown significant improvements across many standards, reflecting remarkable institutional development, as noted by the External Evaluation Team.
Dr Ngo Minh Duc – President of EIU spoke at the program
At the ceremony, Dr. Ngo Minh Duc – Rector of EIU, emphasized:“Quality assurance is a process that requires the efforts, determination, and unity of all members and units within the university. Participating in accreditation is not only a requirement but also an opportunity for the university to demonstrate its commitment to quality to the community and society. Although the official survey concludes today, our efforts to improve the quality of operations, teaching, facilities, student support, and community service will continue. This is not merely driven by the requirements of accreditation, but also by our sincere desire to offer the best educational environment for learners and to create new values that contribute positively to the development of the broader community and society.”
The External Evaluation Team and EIU representatives concluded the event by signing the official minutes of the survey.
