From the sharing of MSc. Vo Duc Hoang Vu - Deputy Head of Science and International Cooperation Department, UEH has had cooperation exchange programs with a number of universities in Japan. However, these cooperation programs do face certain limitations; therefore, the cooperation with the Japan Bankers Association will open up new cooperation opportunities for UEH University. During the meeting, the Department Heads/Deputy Heads of UEH Faculty of Banking exchange further viewpoints and share their wishes for a close and sustainable cooperation between UEH Faculty of Banking and the Japan Banking Association in the future.
