Student news and events

For Phuong Linh, university success once meant good grades and completed assignments. But stepping beyond her academic routine and getting involved in student clubs opened the door to unexpected experiences, new friendships, and a growing sense of confidence and belonging.

When Ngoc Phuong first arrived at RMIT, she was an introverted student unsure of her future. Three years later, unexpected challenges and leadership experiences have taught her that finding her own path isn't about having all the answers, but about having the courage to explore, make mistakes, and grow along the way.

With graduation approaching and deadlines piling up, Professional Communications student Ngoc Linh faced a choice: play it safe or take a chance on unexpected opportunities. What began as a leap of faith into a student competition led to an award, a dream internship, and a valuable lesson in believing in herself, even when the outcome was uncertain.

With little leadership experience, RMIT student Kim Ngoc wasn't sure she was ready to lead her team at ADC Hackathon 2026. But navigating tough decisions, tight deadlines, and unexpected challenges led her team to First Runner-up and taught her that effective leadership isn't about having all the answers, but learning to move forward despite uncertainty.

For RMIT student Hoang Thong, sustainability once meant little more than tote bags, paper straws and eco-friendly packaging. But winning Sustainability Impact Challenge 2026 opened his eyes to a bigger picture, challenging three long-held beliefs about how businesses can balance environmental impact, community needs and profitability.

After years in management, RMIT MBA student Anh Thi returned to university confident in her professional experience. But a group project on electric motorbike batteries challenged her familiar approach to problem-solving, revealing why effective business strategies sometimes require less complexity, more flexibility and a deeper understanding of people's needs.

RMIT Vietnam is coordinating with Tan Hung Ward Health Station and Nam Sai Gon International General Hospital to organise periodic health check-ups for eligible students at the Saigon South (SGS) campus.

The same online class can offer very different experiences to different learners. Some may not be able to access visual content, while others may struggle to follow a lecture or interact with a digital platform in the same way. So when an online learning experience does not work for everyone, is the challenge with the learner, or with the way we design the experience?
