Speaking at the "Environment and Sustainable Development" discussion session, Associate Professor... Dr. Hoang Tung stated: "Hanoi University of Civil Engineering is proud to be present and contribute to this important forum. With 70 years of training tradition and 60 years since its establishment, HUCE is currently one of the top 5 national key universities in engineering and technology in Vietnam, leading in the field of Architecture and Construction. HUCE is also one of 13 Talent Research Centers for the Development of Industry 4.0 Talents in the field of New Materials and Construction Technology, and is a pioneer in implementing Vietnam's first training programs on high-speed rail construction engineering, urban rail, and nuclear power plants. Vietnam-China higher education cooperation in strategic infrastructure is not simply about sharing knowledge, but also about jointly building a foundation for the sustainable development of both countries and the region. Hanoi University of Civil Engineering is committed to being a reliable, practical, and long-term partner in this journey.”

Besides attending the High-Level Forum, HUCE visited, worked with, and signed Memorandums of Cooperation (MOU) with Tsinghua University, Beijing Jiaotong University, and Guangxi University. These are all leading higher education institutions, included in the list of key universities of the Chinese government. Establishing partnerships with these prestigious universities not only opens up opportunities for high-quality academic exchange but also contributes to training highly skilled human resources to meet the development requirements of the digital age in both countries.
