INTERNATIONAL INVESTMENT
AND PORTAL
Early this month, in the presence of Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, RMIT University announced the next phase of RMIT's commitment to Vietnam, which includes a strategic investment fund worth more than $165.2 million.
Andrew Goledzinowski, Australian Ambassador to Vietnam said, “RMIT is not only a pioneer in education cooperation between Vietnam and Australia, but also a standard setting for educational outcomes and cooperation."
“The collaboration will become even more extensive in the future. Organisations like RMIT not only teach students; they also collaborate with government, society, and other organisations to do research that improves community results,” Goledzinowski said.
The university will utilise this grant to invest in education, research, and cooperation activities, as well as the school's infrastructure, therefore supporting the RMIT Innovation and Business Connection Centre in Hanoi, where local partners and international specialists may share ideas.
In tandem with the university's undergraduate and graduate programmes, the centre will contribute to the development of a more skilled and adaptable workforce through short-term education solutions and employee training courses.
