Essential soft skills for UEB’s students

Aiming at building a professional training environment, VNU University of Economics and Business set its priority in improving students’ soft skills. Through these activities, the students can obtain professional knowledge and become more dynamic, creative and proactive in seizing opportunities for self-development.


The specialized knowledge that universities provide to students during their studies is the decisive factor that will help students establish a career in the future. The question, however, is that specialized knowledge itself is enough to help students overcome difficulties and challenges in a future that is changing every day? Therefore, the UEB prepares its students with not only specialized knowledge but useful soft skills.

Let’s take a look at the activities held for UEB’s students in early 2021,

Communicate and behave with DISC Rule

"DISC" stands for the four words: Dominance - Influence - Steadiness - Compliance. Based on these criteria, students can predict and analyze the personality of the other person, thereby establishing the way to communicate so that both people can feel comfortable talking together. The topic was discussed in the workshop "Communicate and behave with DISC Rules" with experienced and talented speakers: Ms. Le Hong Diem from Ledi Professional Business Lecturer.
