FFL-TDTU welcomes Philippines Delegation for Academic and Cultural Exchange at TDTU

As part of its expanding network of global academic partnerships, the Faculty of Foreign Languages at Ton Duc Thang University (TDTU) hosted a welcoming ceremony this morning for a delegation of lecturers and students from Nueva Vizcaya State University (NVSU), a public institution in the Philippines. The event, held in Meeting Room A0101, marks the official commencement of a month-long "Internship and Cultural Exchange Program" hosted by TDTU for the Philippines cohort. 

The ceremony took place in a warm and collaborative atmosphere, attended by the Faculty’s leadership and academic staff. In her welcoming remarks, Ms. Nguyen Thanh Phuong - Vice Dean of the Faculty of Foreign Languages, extended a cordial greeting to the NVSU representatives. She emphasized that the program’s curriculum is strategically designed to go beyond the classroom. "Our goal is for NVSU students to not only sharpen their professional expertise but also to gain a profound understanding of Vietnamese heritage, its people, and the dynamic energy of Ho Chi Minh City," Ms. Phuong stated. 

Within the framework of the one-month program, the delegation of lecturers and students from NVSU will participate in diverse activities, including attending English Language Major classes, joining academic workshops, and visiting famous landmarks and historical sites in Ho Chi Minh City and surrounding areas. This is also an opportunity for students of the Faculty of Foreign Languages to practice international communication skills and build networking connections with friends within the Southeast Asian region.

This visit serves as a testament to the Faculty's unwavering commitment to the internationalization of education. The hosting of the NVSU delegation underscores the growing and sustainable partnership between TDTU’s Faculty of Foreign Languages and Nueva Vizcaya State University, Philippines. 

At the end of the ceremony, both parties exchanged meaningful souvenirs and took commemorative photos, marking a successful beginning for a promising month of experiences. The Faculty of Foreign Languages wishes the NVSU students an exhilarating and productive month ahead, filled with valuable knowledge and unforgettable experiences at TDTU.
