Draft:Greenwich Vietnam

Greenwich Vietnam is an international partnership between FPT University and the University of Greenwich, UK, established in 2009. With the mission of improving the quality of Vietnamese human resources towards international integration, Greenwich Vietnam offers original undergraduate programs from the University of Greenwich, UK.

To date, nearly 20,000 students have studied at Greenwich Vietnam at all 4 campuses: Hanoi, Da Nang, Ho Chi Minh City and Can Tho.

History of Formation
In 2008, while reading Tuoi Tre newspaper, Dr. Le Truong Tung - Chairman of the Board of Trustees of FPT University, the founding leader of Greenwich Vietnam, happened to read an advertisement about Greenwich University attracting Vietnamese students to study in Singapore. At that time, he thought: why do Vietnamese students have to go to Singapore to study instead of studying right in their own country? At that time, FPT proactively contacted Greenwich University, UK, and sent people to work directly. Only a short time later, the first Greenwich campus was opened in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.

Dr. Le Truong Tung affirmed: “Greenwich Vietnam is not simply a place where students can study a high-quality program at a reasonable cost, but it is also a representative of British higher education in Vietnam and a manifestation of educational diplomacy between the two countries. Through education, we exchange expertise, exchange culture and contribute to strengthening international relations between the two countries.

Diploma
Students who study at Greenwich Vietnam receive a bachelor's degree awarded by the University of Greenwich (UK), which is exactly the same as the degree awarded to students who study directly in the UK. This degree has global value.

The degrees of Greenwich Vietnam are all recognized by the Ministry of Education and Training of Vietnam and are accredited by the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education in the UK. These degrees are all awarded by the University of Greenwich in the UK.
