ANNUAL REPORT 2014 CONTENTS MESSAGE FROM VNU-HCM PRESIDENT OVERVIEW 19 POWER OF SYNERGY 107 LOOKING AHEAD 111 FINANCE 2012 119 ANNEX VNU-HCM: SYNERGY POWER Vision VNU-HCM is committed to becoming one of the top ranked universities in Asia, where science, technology, culture and intellect of Vietnam converge Mission VNU-HCM is home to talented faculty and excellent students, and dedicated to preparing highly qualified human resources, conducting significant researches and leading innovations so as to promote national development and social advances VNU-HCM is governed, managed and administered as an exemplary university model with high degree of autonomy, social accountability and self-control It also creates a favorable environment for science innovation and academic freedom in a standard university city ANNUAL REPORT 2014 Message from VNU-HCM President The year 2014 is coming to an end Under the theme of Education Quality, all activities of VNU-HCM in 2014 were geared towards maintaining the quality of education, academic affairs and research Assoc Prof Dr Phan Thanh Binh In addition to strengthening high quality academic programs at an international standard (e.g excellent engineer training programs, honors programs and advanced programs), VNU-HCM implemented the CDIO approach to fully develop learners' knowledge, skills, qualifications and professional competence Being home to distinguished faculty and students, the University also paid close attention to admissions, as it endeavors to produce talents for the society after every years of education In 2014, the proposal "Higher education admission reform" was completed, which is scheduled to be implemented for years (2015-2017) in order to fully evaluate students' academic competence, problem solving skills and community involvement Committed to standardizing and developing academic programs and learning environment at an international standard so as to provide highly qualified personnel for the sake of socioeconomic growth, the quality assurance system of VNU-HCM has been strongly built Up to 2014, the University had 16 programs accredited by ASEAN University Network (AUN) Besides, the Computer Science and Computer Engineering programs were accredited by ABET (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology) at level 3, making them the 66 VVNNUU HHCCM M:: SSYYNNEERRGGYY PPOOW WEERR first two programs in Vietnamese universities get the highest level of ABET accreditation As a pioneer of the country in international assessment and accreditation, VNU-HCM has been gradually integrating into regional and global higher education The deep relationship of VNU-HCM and its partners in the area of science and technology has gained increasingly effective and quality outcomes Currently, it has closely worked with many universities and institutes around the world from Asia, Europe to North America on scientific research programs In 2014, the University focused on technical improvement by working with reputable universities in the world such as University of California Berkeley (UCB), University of California Los Angeles (UCLA), Singapore Management University (SMU) on the three important areas: (1) natural science; (2) education science; (3) management science/business administration Such partnerships have opened the door for VNU-HCM to integrate into the world class university system The value of a university can be measured by its inventions and contributions to human knowledge, as well as by the benefits it brings to the community Fully aware of it, for the past years, a comprehensive community engagement strategy has been implemented by VNU-HCM, including specific goals and widespread programs which closely linked with the localities of the Southern economic zone for the sake of socioeconomic and cultural development As a large science hub of the country, VNUHCM actively provided inputs for national policies and schemes, especially those related to the government resolutions for educational reform For its continued effectiveness, VNU-HCM has identified the directions for strategic plan 20162020 and the vision 2030 The overall goal was to fully develop the University system on the basis of autonomy, social accountability and corresponding responsibility VNU-HCM would provide the guidance and create favorable conditions for its member institutions to be able to develop the University into a central hub in the country for multi-disciplinary quality education, research and technology transfer, keeping pace with reputable universities in the region and the world Entering the year 2015 2015 is when VNU-HCM, in celebration of big national holidays, will reflect on its 20 years of construction, development and integration As looking back at the past, everyone will feel proud and at the same time, be aware of his responsibility in developing the University 2015 marks the start of the strategic plan for a new period: the period of development and acclamation 2015 presents challenges and opportunities for VNU-HCM's integration Globalization is a vital process of integration among economies and cultures Competition AA NN NN UU AA LL RR EE PP OO RR TT 22 00 11 44 77 and cooperation are intertwined OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES are two sides of the same coin The formation of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) in 2015 will bring both challenges and opportunities to Vietnam Such opportunities including expanded labor market, and positive conditions to exchange, collaborate and mobilize educational and research resources must be seized The country needs to implement reforms for international integration, and vice versa Education needs to be a bridge leading the country to international integration and a good future In 2013, the 11th Central Committee of the Communist Party of Vietnam issued the Resolution 29 on comprehensive educational reform In that context, VNU-HCM officially registered to be the pilot institution to carry out the reform, as it was aware that the change was urgently necessary, not because the government asked for it, but because the education itself and the University did need it The reform would have a positive impact on the quality of education and science, leading to the formation of research oriented universities Once done at VNU-HCM, it would facilitate an advanced model of higher education administration at international standards, enabling the Vietnamese higher education to integrate into the regional and global system With that, VNU-HCM identified the theme for 2015 as REFORM - INTEGRATION with the following core agenda: - Completing and enhancing articulation and collaboration in education, research and academic exchanges among member institutions, and with local and international partners; thereby, creating the breakthrough improvement in the quality of education and research VNU-HCM: SYNERGY POWER - Reforming and developing the quality of administration; professionalizing all areas of operation; and standardizing the administration processes in order to improve the VNU-HCM's position - All activities must be associated with the development strategy of VNU-HCM Resources are allocated based on key performance indicators and appraisal schemes The future is ahead, and the expectation of the society requires VNU-HCM, with its commitment and achievements, to pioneer the reform and the local and international integration A year is coming to an end In celebration of another new year, it is confident that VNUHCM will achieve a sustainable development, and join other stakeholders in the country to improve higher education quality for the sake of regional and international integration Wishing the faculty health and happiness
