Dong Thap University sparks creativity with its iconic project "DThU Aspiration".

The "DthU Aspiration" building is one of 44 key national projects selected by the Government to be inaugurated on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and the reunification of the country.

Built alongside the tranquil Tien River, the nine-story building, constructed on a 900m² site and boasting a total floor area of approximately 7,890m², is a symbol of the land of nine dragons and nine rivers – a representation of the Mekong Delta region.

The "DthU Aspiration" building will become a center for learning, research, and integration, a place that ignites knowledge and inspires creativity for present and future generations of students.

Associate Professor, Dr. Ho Van Thong, Rector of Dong Thap University, stated that the university will steadfastly pursue its strategy of continuing to develop into a prestigious training and research center, making positive contributions to the development of education and society. Dong Thap University will continue to conquer new heights, not only in learning and research but also in community service.

Deputy Minister of Education and Training Le Tan Dung assessed that this is an important step, contributing to the achievement of the school's development goals with a vision to 2035, becoming a high-quality training and scientific research center of Vietnam and the Southeast Asian region.

With that goal in mind, investing in the construction of facilities for the school in general, and the "DThU Aspiration House" project in particular, is an urgent requirement.

Speaking at the ceremony, Comrade Le Minh Hoan, Vice Chairman of the National Assembly, emphasized: "If we view education simply as teaching and learning, then we do just enough, but if we view it as a mission, we do it with all our hearts. That is, to train teachers who know how to love their students, who are compassionate towards the poor, and who know how to sow hope in the most deprived places."

The future of our homeland will undoubtedly benefit greatly from the contributions of the students who have graduated from this school. These include teachers who teach with passion and creativity; agricultural scientists who know how to cultivate both plants and people; and entrepreneurs in agriculture, tourism, culture, education, science, technology, digital transformation, information technology, and artificial intelligence…”.

The Vice Chairman of the National Assembly stated that the inauguration of a building may be something that happens today, but building a new spirit of education is a journey for the future.

With its new location, new vision, and new building, Dong Thap University will continuously illuminate a path—a path from the Tien River to the vast ocean of knowledge, from Dong Thap, the land of lotus flowers, to all corners of the country.

"Every step forward taken by teachers and students today continues the spirit of nation-building passed down through generations. Together, we will make our homeland a more livable place and our country more beautiful, starting from this beloved school," Comrade Le Minh Hoan expressed his wish.

On this occasion, Dong Thap University officially announced that it has become one of the 14 key higher education institutions for teacher training nationwide, according to the Prime Minister's Decision on approving the planning of the network of higher education and teacher training institutions for the period 2021-2030, with a vision to 2050.

The Coordinating Office of the "Reading with Cyclo" Project awarded 100 scholarships to students of Dong Thap University.

At the ceremony, the Coordinating Office of the "Reading with Cyclo" Project awarded 100 scholarships worth 70 million VND to students of the school participating in the "Affiliate Training Camp," themed "Green Gene Dong Thap - Digital Skills for Marketing Local Agricultural Products."
