UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE &
TECHNOLOGY OF HANOI

2. • The creation of the USTH has been formalized through an
intergovernmental agreement on November 12th 2009 between Madame
Valérie Pécresse, Minister of Research and Higher Education of France and
Mr. Nguyen Thien Nhan, Vice-Prime Minister, Minister of Education and
Training of Vietnam.
• The teaching and diploma system follows the so-called Bologna Process
now used in almost all high–level Universities in the world. The Bachelor,
Master and PhD degrees will be achieved in 3, 5 and 8 years, respectively.
• The teaching contents are based both on a theoretical and experimental
(practical) approaches and are prepared and taught in conjunction by
French and Vietnamese professors, with a strong French input.
• The 6 thematic departments are: Biotechnology and Pharmacology, Water –
Environment – Oceanography, Material Science – Nanotechnologies,
Information and Communication Technology, Renewable Energies, Space
and Application.
