“According to Vietnam’s Ministry of Education and Training [MOET], to the end of 2005 (MOET, February 2006), there are 230 universities and colleges which are public and non-public (terms used by MOET). State research institutions number 300 (Tran et al, 1995) all of which are public. Vietnam’s universities, colleges and research institutions are responsible to various ministries which means that they work under direct supervision of their ministry or provincial authorities in terms of their mission and financial support, for example the University of Medicines reports to the Ministry of Health. However, the curriculum of each is subject to approval by the Ministry of Education and Training (MOET).
In recent years, the higher education system in Vietnam has undergone many positive changes. In relation to access and equity in higher education, policy making bodies such as the Communist Party of Vietnam, and the MOET have launched several new policies and trialed various models to both modernize the higher education system and respond to the needs of access and equity in higher education. International agencies, foreign donors, as well as private enterprise, have also contributed a great deal to increasing access and equity to higher education in Vietnam and the re-organization of the higher education system structure and capacity building for universities/colleges for the future.”
