For the education sector, the Steering Committee requires the rearrangement of the education, healthcare and state-owned enterprise systems; in which, merging or dissolving universities that do not meet standards.
Regarding the standards of universities, the Ministry of Education and Training has issued Circular No. 01/2024/TT-BGDDT regulating the standards of higher education institutions.
Accordingly, 6 standards to ensure the quality and operation of a university include: Organization and administration, lecturers, teaching and learning conditions, finance, enrollment and training, research and innovation.
Discussing the arrangement plan, the leader of Da Nang University said that there has not been any specific steps so far, because they are still waiting for official instructions from the Ministry of Education and Training.
All projects and plans must follow the instructions. We are currently monitoring and waiting for the guidance document to have a basis for implementation," said the leader of Da Nang University.
