International University is committed to creating and sustaining comprehensive, effective internationalization programs that increase global engagement for its students, faculty and staff members. As an integral part of the University’s developmental strategy, a wide range of activities focusing on academic exchanges have been implementing to reflect the core benefits of knowledge sharing. Among them are programs for Faculty and Staff Exchange, Student Exchange, Scientific Research Projects and International Conferences/Seminars.

Faculty/Staff and Scholar Exchange

Being an excellent chance for networking, this activity provides faculty members and scholars with opportunities to further their researches, to foster creation as well as to develop directions and research ideas with colleagues at other institutions. Staff development benefits greatly from this program through both professional and personal enrichment. Working, teaching and conducting researches in another country apparently presents a different perspective, creating challenges yet rewarding opportunities.

More importantly, Faculty/Staff and Scholar Exchange Program helps institutions expand a better understanding of their partners through interaction with a different managerial system, comprehension of a totally different culture and environment. Additionally, the Faculty and Staff members being exchanged will play the role of an Ambassador for his/her home institution, laying important foundations for the institutional relationship which helps further the mutual collaboration in the future.

For those great benefits, if you and your colleagues would like to join us through this exchange program, please contact us at the following email address qhdn@hcmiu.edu.vn. Upon your request, Office of External and Public Relations will forward the information to related Schools, Departments and/or Offices.
