Vietnamese students in Russia continue to increase
VOV 09:51, 2013/12/28
The Voice of Russia reports approximately 6,000 Vietnamese students are currently studying in Russia, 2,000 of whom are sponsored under a recent intergovernmental agreement reached between the two nations.
The agreement stipulates the Vietnamese Government will cover all training and accommodation costs for eligible students.

Authorities are anticipating a rise in student numbers following President Vladimir Putin’s recent visit to Vietnam and the ensuing negotiation of new training cooperation agreements.

Vietnamese students are distributed across six Russian universities. The Russian Government now offers 1,000 of its 15,000 total annual scholarships to Vietnamese students.

Tula State University, with 180 Vietnamese undergraduates and postgraduates, has the largest Vietnamese student community in Russia.

Russian education experts say Vietnamese students have a firm grasp of fundamentals and are serious  about their studies.

They actively participate in sports and cultural activities at their respective universities. Many Vietnamese students have placed highly in physics, chemistry, maths, and informatics Olympiads.  

The experts are confident regulatory reforms regarding recruiting overseas students to Russian universities will also encourage more Vietnamese students to pursue Russian educational opportunities.
