The Standard Business Administration Program at Foreign Trade University is designed to equip students with a solid foundation in business knowledge, modern managerial thinking, and the ability to adapt to an increasingly dynamic business environment. However, several misconceptions about the program still exist. The following information provides a clearer understanding of the opportunities and learning experience offered by the FTU Standard Business Administration Program.
MISCONCEPTION 1: STUDYING IN VIETNAMESE LIMITS INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES
In reality, the language of instruction does not determine a student’s ability to succeed in an international environment. Every year, many students from the Standard Program participate in exchange programs at partner universities worldwide, receive prestigious postgraduate scholarships, and secure internships or full-time positions at multinational corporations. With strong academic performance, foreign language proficiency, and a proactive mindset, students can confidently pursue international academic and career opportunities.
MISCONCEPTION 2: THE STANDARD PROGRAM PROVIDES FEWER OPPORTUNITIES TO LEARN FROM HIGHLY QUALIFIED FACULTY AND ENGAGE IN ACADEMIC ACTIVITIES
The Standard Program is taught by highly qualified lecturers with extensive teaching and research experience, many of whom have studied, conducted research, or worked overseas. Students also have access to scientific research projects, internship opportunities, scholarship programs, and various academic activities. The Faculty provides an environment where students are encouraged to take initiative and maximize every opportunity for academic and professional development.
MISCONCEPTION 3: THE STANDARD PROGRAM HAS INFERIOR FACILITIES AND LEARNING RESOURCES
Students across all academic programs at Foreign Trade University have equal access to the University’s learning facilities and resources, including classrooms, libraries, study spaces, and other academic support services. As a result, students in the Standard Business Administration Program benefit from the same modern learning environment and facilities as all other FTU students.
MISCONCEPTION 4: STANDARD PROGRAM STUDENTS FOCUS ONLY ON ACADEMICS
Students in the Standard Business Administration Program actively participate in student clubs, volunteer initiatives, event organization, scientific research, and academic competitions at both national and international levels. In addition to developing strong professional knowledge, they continuously enhance their leadership, communication, teamwork, and problem-solving skills, contributing to their comprehensive personal and professional development.
