Currently, the team of highly qualified staff and lecturers of Hanoi University of Science and Technology has nearly 900 PhDs, over 300 professors and associate professors.

Recently, many higher education institutions in Vietnam have implemented projects to attract and retain talent, such as Ho Chi Minh City National University implementing the VNU350 program to attract, retain and develop outstanding young scientists and leading scientists.

Many other higher education institutions (public and private) have policies to attract PhDs, associate professors, and professors; many provinces/cities attract talents, especially professors and PhDs to develop science and technology such as Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Bac Ninh, Lam Dong, etc.
