Strategic partnership: Opening doors for students to the U.S.

On May 2, 2025, LHU officially received an invitation to participate in the Familiarity Tour program at Arizona State University (ASU) – a top-ranked institution renowned for its innovation in U.S. higher education. This marks a significant milestone in the University’s international integration journey, reinforcing its strategic commitment to comprehensive partnerships that enhance educational quality and elevate Vietnamese students' standing on the global stage.

Three representatives from LHU will head to the U.S. with ASU’s invitation for summer 2025

Accordingly, three outstanding representatives from LHU will embark on a special journey from June 23 to 28, 2025, combining academic exploration with participation in the Cintana Global Competition – Innovative Solutions for Sustainable Development 2025, including Mr. Bui Xuan Canh – Lecturer at the Faculty of Information Technology; Hoang Gia Huy – an Artificial Intelligence major; and Vi Hoai Thuong – a student specializing in E-Commerce.

These representatives successfully passed the selection rounds held in collaboration with Cintana Education in Vietnam to earn a place in the global finals. In the U.S., they will join other teams to share innovative solutions, aligned with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Big opportunities for LHU students

Participating in this program provides LHU students with valuable opportunities not only to experience an advanced educational environment but also to test their skills and affirm Vietnam's intelligence and potential in an international arena. ASU - renowned for its educational innovations and dynamic academic environment, will be the place where LHU representatives directly explore advanced training models, learn global development trends, and expand their international networks.

Strategic partnership: A launchpad to the future

This trip is the result of a strong partnership between LHU, Cintana Education, and ASU, reflecting LHU’s commitment to sustainable development and its global vision. With a robust international integration strategy, LHU has continuously opened doors for its students to access world-class education, while inspiring and motivating both them and Vietnamese students to boldly pursue new heights.

Dr. Lam Thanh Hien, Rector of LHU stated "International collaboration has been one of the key strategies that LHU has persistently pursued over the years. Participating in this global platform not only demonstrates the efforts of our faculty and students but also serves as a testament of the sound direction of the University’s internationalization strategy. We hope each journey will bring strong ripple effects, empowering LHU students to be more confident in their path toward global integration".

Sharing his feelings upon receiving ASU’s invitation, Mr. Bui Xuan Canh expressed "As a young lecturer, I feel proud and deeply responsible to represent LHU at this event. This is an opportunity not only to learn but also to share the values of Vietnamese education with international friends. I believe this experience will unlock new opportunities for me personally and help me gain valuable insights to inspire both myself and my students".

Student Vi Hoai Thuong, one of the two student representatives, emotionally shared "Participating in a program in the U.S. is a dream come true for me. I’m excited to experience a modern learning environment, meet international friends, and especially to present my innovative ideas to the world. I believe this will be a powerful motivation for LHU students to keep striving and confidently reach further".

The success story of the three representatives will serve as a vivid testament inspiring future generations of students. It is a strong affirmation that choosing to study at LHU not only means studying domestically but also opens up global opportunities, directly contributing to spreading Vietnamese intelligence worldwide.

In the context of a rapidly globalizing higher education landscape, LHU has been asserting its pioneering role in linking education with international collaboration. Through programs like this, the University consistently demonstrates its ability to connect and create high-quality learning and research opportunities for Vietnamese students.

It is hoped that the journey of these outstanding representatives will not only be a story of achievement but also open more doors to global integration, helping LHU reach new heights on the global stage.
