They include Ho Chi Minh City-based Duy Tan University and Ton Duc Thang University, Vietnam National University-Hanoi (VNU), Hanoi University of Science and Technology (HUST), Viet Nam National University–Ho Chi Minh City (VNU-HCM), and Hue University in Thua Thien-Hue.
Duy Tan and Ton Duc Thang were placed between 601st and 800th, while VNU was ranked between 1,201st and 1,500th, and the remaining three - in the 1501st group.
Most notably, this year has seen Ho Chi Minh City Open University listed for the first time with “reporter” status, meaning that it provided data but did not meet THE’s eligibility criteria to receive a ranking, and agreed to be displayed as a reporter in the final table.
This year, the Times Higher Education has ranked 1,904 universities from across 108 countries and regions on the list, the largest and most diverse of its kind to date.
The table is based on THE’s new WUR 3.0 methodology, which includes 18 carefully calibrated performance indicators measuring an institution’s performance across five areas - teaching, research environment, research quality, industry, and international outlook.
