The Ho Chi Minh City University of Social Sciences and Humanities
speciality: Linguistics

1. Inspiring Professors:
Several lecturers were not only well-versed in their field but deeply committed to students’ progress. Dr. N.T.T. from the International Relations faculty stood out for her ability to make complex theories relatable to current global events. Her classes were intellectually challenging but incredibly rewarding.

2. Multilingual Environment:
The school has a reputation for strong language departments, and it shows. I had friends from the Japanese Studies and Spanish Literature programs—everyone was immersed in a multicultural and multilingual atmosphere. This fostered a very open-minded, globally aware student community.

3. Vibrant Campus Life (esp. Dinh Tien Hoang Campus):
The D1 campus isn’t huge, but it’s full of life—language clubs, charity projects, debate competitions, and cultural exchange events happened regularly. I joined the IR Club and had opportunities to organize events with international guests and diplomats, which was a real highlight.
