These are proud achievements of UEB students in particular and VNU in general. It demonstrates that scientific research activity at UEB has been gradually improved. It also shows that combining training with scientific research is a right policy. Moreover, with the remarkable achievement in training and scientific research in 2009, UEB - VNU has gradually asserted its position.
In order to encourage student in scientific research in coming years, ministry level research and Gami scholarship awarding ceremony will be held by UEB. Beside the Awards of Ministry of Education and Training, the students who get the high score will be supported by the Vietnam Centre for Economic and Policy Research, UEB (VEPR - UEB). At the awarding ceremony, they also have chance to share experiences and passion with other students recognizing the same interest in scientific research. It is expected that many students and sponsors will find out useful information at the awarding ceremony. The scientific research activities in 2010 and coming years will attract more and more students and sponsors.
On 30th January 2010, the 20th “Student Scientific Research Prize” and the 17th “Vietnamese Creative Technology - VIFOTEC” Awarding Ceremony will be held by Ministry of Education and Training at the Hanoi University of Technology.
