Accordingly, the School of Medicine – VNU-HCM understands the importance of the training of high-quality general practitioners, so as to meet an ever greater demand for healthcare from society.
The School’s administrators, staff, and lecturers are keenly aware of our responsibility to build a training process in accordance with clear-cut quality criteria, and to implement such process in a way that is evidently measurable in terms of its results and efficiency.
We, the School of Medicine of VNU-HCM, are making efforts to become the University of Health Sciences, with a distinct identity and culture, and a foundation upon basic human values for sustainable development.
