Activities and Services
University of Languages and International Studies, Vietnam National University, Hanoi (VNU-ULIS) and Tokyo University of Foreign Studies (TUFS) signed a partnership agreement in 2015. The exchange between the two universities began in the 1990s with the exchange of research with Vietnamese teachers at our university and with collaborative projects in the field of Japanese language education.
In 2005, VNU-ULIS established the first Japanese language teacher training course in Vietnam, and teachers from Japanese Language Center for International Students (JLC) in TUFS were sent to Vietnam to give intensive lectures to help with setting up the course.
VNU-ULIS is also a valuable field experience for students in the TUFS pre-doctoral program as interns in Japanese language education.
