Two Vietnamese College Programs Awarded Regional Quality Certificates

Two college programs of the Danang University of Science and Technology were officially awarded regional quality certificates from the ASEAN University Network (AUN), local media reported. Accordingly, the programs are the Electronics-Telecommunications and Embedded System which scored the second highest assessment rates throughout the Southeast Asian region. The AUN reviewed the general education quality of the Electronics-Telecommunications and the Embedded System programs – the former was opened in 2006 and the latter two years later - based on 18 assessment criteria. Vietnam so far has some 90 college programs accredited by international and regional educational quality assessment organizations like the AUN-QA and the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET).
