Some training majors are only available at some schools such as development research, archaeology, urban underground construction... In return, with 'exclusive' majors, both schools and students have a competitive advantage.
The majors and programs that are rarely offered by schools are mainly due to their unique characteristics, new appearance, and low demand for human resources. Therefore, schools often face difficulties in terms of materials, curriculum, and enrollment is also not easy because not many people know about them.
In return, with "exclusive" majors, both the school and students have a competitive advantage, according to Ms. Vu Thanh Ngoc, Department of Training and Student Affairs, School of Interdisciplinary Sciences and Arts, Vietnam National University, Hanoi. This school currently trains a number of specific majors such as art photography, contemporary visual arts and visual communication design...
In addition, schools pay attention to interdisciplinary training so that students have many job opportunities after graduation.
