Previously, at the Conference on the Implementation of Projects on Human Resource Development and "Three-Party" Cooperation (State, Schools, and Businesses), organized by the Ministry of Education and Training in mid-June, Dr. Nguyen Anh Dung, Deputy Director of the Department of Higher Education (Ministry of Education and Training), stated that, according to the planning of the network of higher education and teacher training institutions for the period 2021-2030, large higher education centers will be formed, with approximately 50 to 60 higher education institutions offering doctoral-level training.
Specifically, some public higher education institutions will be restructured and streamlined; teacher training universities specializing in physical education, sports, and arts will be reorganized.
Restructuring and developing technical teacher training universities into multidisciplinary higher education institutions with a focus on technology and engineering.
For teacher training colleges, the proposed arrangement and organization should be towards merging with a teacher training university or a multidisciplinary higher education institution (with a school or faculty of teacher training or basic sciences);
Merging with a local or regional higher education institution. Merging or consolidating with several other local educational institutions.
In addition to the merger, it is expected that in the near future, Hanoi University of Education and Ho Chi Minh City University of Education will be upgraded and developed into key national higher education institutions specializing in pedagogy.
