A PRESTIGIOUS UNIVERSITY

ACHIEVEMENTS

Annually the University publishes a wide range of works that are of high theoretical and practical values in the field of foreign language teaching and learning at all levels nationwide. The Foreign Languages Journal, which features high-quality papers authored by members of the faculty, has been well received and valued among professional circles.

Publications authored by University faculty members have proved useful in the advancement of foreign language learning and teaching. Some of these include the E-English series of eight CDs for use by high school teachers and students, packaged via the advanced SCORM 1.2 application. This series was developed by a group of ULIS lecturers and distributed nationwide with the aim of enhancing the capacity and performance of language teachers and learners at high school level.

The university has also taken a proactive approach in cooperating with various research institutes and mass media agencies like VTV and VOV, national televi-sion and radio station to produce language training programs. Also with the aim of building capacity and professional expertise for the faculty, we have devel-oped partnerships with prestigious international organizations such as the British Council, Cambridge University, the Russian Cultural Centre, and the Vietnamese-Korean Cultural Centre, among others.

and Vietnam Research Network (Vinaren) has also been established.

We have also invested substantially to build specialized multi-channel classrooms for the training of interpreters with conference equipment standards of the United Nations. There are also multimedia audiovisual classrooms and computer rooms that provide students with satellite television channels from around the world so that they can practice the language they learn.

In addition,, students are given access to high-tech equipment such as Language Experimentation Room with modern phonemic analysis equipment and the Centre for the Design and Production of Learning Materials where they can produce learning materials and practice their research skills.

The local area network, management websites and electronic database system, tailored to the learners’ needs, have enabled students to be more active in their learning, allocate time more properly and improve their performance. We have also worked with international universities to integrate their distant learning modules and websites into our system, thereby allowing our students access to more and better sources of knowledge and information.

After spending three years in the Foreign Language Specialized School (1999-2002) and another four years in the Chinese fast-track course of ULIS (2002-2006), Bui Thanh Huyen is arguably one of the most ‘veteran faces’ in this university. Graduating with a distinction degree, aided by her rich experi-ence as a youth union secretary of the Chinese department, Huyen has asserted herself as a competent learner and leader. Now a staff in the Sports Division of the national television channel (VTV3), she has become a popular reporter to the national audience with her coverage of different sporting events inside and outside Vietnam.

“Seven years learning Chinese gives me a true understanding of the values of the language I learn, especially when Vietnam is integrating quickly into the world. I think you agree with me that teachers are there to give ‘the fishing rod’ and not ‘the fish’, so let’s work hard and be active in your use of language to turn human knowledge into a fishing rod for ourselves.”

Bui Thanh Huyen – 2002-2006 student of Chinese.
