To do this, we are constantly improving the quality of teaching and learning in our university departments. We actively contribute to the process of policy formulation for the socio-economic and business developments in Vietnam. We encourage our young lecturers in their individual, as well as their collaborative research projects. The university aims to become an important center for economic and business research, not only in the country but also world-wide. It is hoped that the research findings will gain national and international academic prestige and bring with it benefits for the university.

As a more recently established university, the UEB has quickly gained an outstanding reputation both here in Vietnam and abroad. Here at the University of Economics and Business, we specialize in both formal and innovative training methods. We combine basic and applied research. Our research is both quantitative and qualitative. The university has also created the most favorable conditions where teachers and learners can optimize a proactive and creative approach to their research. In addition, the university orientates and coordinates research activities, as well as provides guidelines for the budgeting of a wide range of research projects.

The research of UEB is oriented towards: Research in direct service management, and improvement of the university’s training activities; research embedding socio-economic growth and enterprise; interdisciplinary research into the acute problems encountered in the development and operation of the economy in general and the University of Economics and Business - VNU in particular.
