This is a goal within VinUni's Phase 2 Strategy, focusing on two main pillars: Developing academic and research infrastructure and Enhancing the academic workforce to international standards.
In particular, focusing on developing 5 research areas including: AI and Robotics, Medicine and Health Technology, Smart Cities and Environment, Big Data - High Performance Computing, Policy and Sustainable Development.
“VinUni 500” program
Recognizing the importance of high-quality human resources, one of the focuses of the Phase 2 Strategy is the “VinUni 500” program – selecting 500 elite global scientists and lecturers, especially Vietnamese scientists working abroad.
The list of invited candidates includes: 10 international Scientific Directors, 200 lecturers - researchers with prestigious publications, 200 post-doctoral scholars and 100 affiliated lecturers, with the aim of improving the quality of research and teaching for students.
VinUni applies a remuneration policy equivalent to that of the world's best universities, with a personal career development fund of up to 150 million VND per year and a seed funding fund of up to 6 billion VND for each outstanding scientist.

The “VinUni 500” program plays a role in connecting the network of Vietnamese scholars with the network of overseas Vietnamese scholars and scholars from the VinFuture Prize, in order to create a breakthrough driving force for substantive and impactful research cooperation activities.
Sharing about the "VinUni 500" program, Dr. Le Mai Lan, Chairman of the School Board, emphasized that VinUni is not just a university, but a vision of creating a talented generation for the future.
“We believe that with the policy of attracting talent to build internal strength; joining forces with domestic and international scientists, making the most of the support from the business ecosystem, VinUni will make a positive contribution to the national strategy in the era of growth,” Dr. Le Mai Lan affirmed.
Infrastructure development: increasing the scale and quality of training
Along with that, Vingroup Corporation committed to investing 9,300 billion VND for VinUni in the new phase.
Of this, 1,500 billion VND is spent on expanding the campus, building lecture halls, dormitories, sports areas and modern laboratory systems. The training scale has increased from 1,500 to 5,000 students, with nearly 50% being postgraduate students - the core force for the scientific research ecosystem.

VinUni is oriented to become an Industrial Research and Innovation Complex - a research center integrating high-tech labs - university-business collaboration space and a 1,000-seat international conference hall.
This is where R&D experts from the business ecosystem, especially from VinFast, Vinmec, VinBigData, VinRobotics, VinMotion... will join VinUni lecturers and students to form co-innovation studios, focusing on highly applied research, rapid commercialization and entrepreneurial spirit.
Along with the on-site complex, VinUni will cooperate with prestigious global universities such as Cornell, Pennsylvania, Nanyang Technological University (Singapore) and prestigious universities in Vietnam, to develop interdisciplinary research clusters (RISE research clusters), aiming at high-quality academic publications and solving national challenges.
Originating from the aspiration to create a world-class university right in Vietnam, after 5 years of development, VinUni has gradually become a symbol of entrepreneurial spirit, speed, quality and global academic cooperation relationships.
The school has become the youngest university to achieve the fastest overall QS 5-star certification in the world, gradually affirming its position in the international higher education community.
