HO CHI MINH CITY, 25 May 2025: Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM) reaffirmed its commitment to internationalisation by participating in the “Study in Malaysia” Education Fair, organised by Education Malaysia Global Services (EMGS), held in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, from 16 to 17 May 2025.
The event provided a dynamic platform to showcase Malaysian higher education to Vietnamese students and their families. UUM’s booth garnered significant interest from prospective students, particularly those keen to explore the university’s distinguished academic programmes in business, management, and international affairs.
Representatives from UUM’s Marketing Division (Academic) and the School of Business Management were on hand to engage with visitors, offering detailed insights into the University’s academic offerings, state-of-the-art facilities, and vibrant global student community.
Beyond student engagement, UUM delegates also participated in a networking session with prospective recruitment agents, where discussions focused on strategic collaborations to promote UUM’s programmes within the Vietnamese market. These engagements are expected to enhance UUM’s recruitment channels and reinforce its presence in the region.
Further advancing its international outreach, the UUM delegation paid an official visit to Van Lang University, a leading private institution in Vietnam. During the visit, both universities explored potential avenues for academic partnerships, including student mobility programmes, joint research initiatives, and institutional partnerships. The dialogue underscored a shared vision for cross-border collaboration and knowledge exchange.
UUM’s participation in the fair and institution visit reflects its ongoing efforts to establish itself as a global education hub and to foster meaningful partnerships across Southeast Asia.
