RMIT Vietnam gets ready to drive impact and contribute to Vietnam’s Sustainable Development agendas

RMIT University in Vietnam convened the second sessions of roundtables in both Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi to discuss how best to support Vietnam’s creative industries and sustainable development.

As the first international university in Vietnam, RMIT University is proud of its longstanding relationship with Vietnam’s Government, industry and community during its 22 years of operation in the country.

To date, RMIT is Australia's largest service investment in Vietnam and remains the largest foreign education investor and has provided the Vietnamese economy with thousands of high-quality graduates. RMIT Vietnam is committed to working with its partners to support the national priorities of Vietnam’s Government and demands of industry to deliver impact for Vietnam and the region.  

RMIT Deputy Vice-Chancellor of the College of Design and Social Context and Vice-President Professor Tim Marshall said “this is an exciting time for RMIT University to be working closely with Vietnamese industry and government to help shape the skills and knowledge of tomorrow”.
