Also, the number of articles has increased. The number of international publications each year has been in the right direction for the University in recent years. As of September this year, UEH has had 3 important international conferences completed and resonated with domestic and international markets. We have completed the FIBAA accreditation of training programs and institutions. Management activities gradually became methodical and stable, and restructuring activities to become a University with 3 member colleges are receiving very good signals from the direct leadership agencies. In addition to the results achieved, we still have to continue to improve the quality of training, internationalize the university, perfect our University governance model, and enhance UEH University’s contribution to the development of the country and the economic regions where we are located. With this in mind, we hope that today’s meeting will receive comments from members, helping UEH develop in accordance with the set strategy.”
