According to VGU Vice President Dr. Ha Thuc Vien, the well-designed facility, that covers 50.5 hectares of land in Thoi Hoa ward, Ben Cat district in Binh Duong province, is expected to host 12,000 students once it becomes operational in the next four years.
Addressing the ground-breaking ceremony, Politburo member and President of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Central Committee Nguyen Thien Nhan affirmed that the project aims to realise the Government’s policy to build a number of excellent universities providing high quality training and research programmes meeting international and regional standards.
President Nguyen Thien Nhan said the university is tasked to offer high-quality human resources and research science and technology advances for national development as well as modernisation, industrialisation and integration.
