Over the past few years, Vietnam has become an increasingly popular destination for travelers and students. They are who seek to explore its unique culture and gain insights into its booming economy. This spring 2023, ABROADER welcomed Monash students from various disciplines to explore the country’s culture, economy, and beyond. Over the course of the tour, the students had the opportunity to learn about Vietnam’s rich history, diverse culture, and dynamic economy. In this blog post, we will take a closer look at the Monash Study Tour in Vietnam, and explore some of the highlights of this unforgettable journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Immersing into Vietnam’s culture and history<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Vietnam is a country with a rich history and culture. And Monash students had the opportunity to explore it first-hand. Students participated in a range of activities that allowed them to immerse themselves in Vietnamese culture and gain a deeper understanding of the country’s history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ho Chi Minh city tour<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The first one in the Study tour in Vietnam is the Ho Chi Minh city tour<\/a>. Formerly known as Saigon, Ho Chi Minh City is the largest city in Vietnam and is famous for its French colonial architecture, bustling markets, and historical landmarks. During their visit, they could wander around and visit sites such as the Notre Dame Cathedral, the Central Post Office, Cu Chi Tunnels, and the War Remnants Museum, which documents the Vietnam War from a Vietnamese perspective. Another highlight of the program was attending a performance of the \u00c0 \u1ed0 show<\/a>. It is a unique fusion of traditional Vietnamese circus and contemporary dance that depicts Vietnamese life most originally. You should really try once when traveling in Ho Chi Minh City!). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Out-of-border education<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Aside from visiting cultural and historical sites, in the study tour in Vietnam, Monash students also engaged in a range of activities designed to foster cultural exchange and cross-cultural learning. Education is about experiencing different cultures and connecting with people from all walks of life. The best way to understand education in Vietnam is to have a learning visit to Vietnamese universities – such as the University of Social Sciences and Humanities. These activities included meeting and having interactively fun lessons with Vietnamese students and teachers. From then, we found out how undergraduate students in Vietnam study every day with discussion sections. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through the guest lectures’ perspectives on Vietnam, they could understand more about Vietnam-related topics such as education in Vietnam; Vietnam Politics and Culture; Vietnam’s Economy; Corporate with Sustainable development; etc. Moreover, we even visited the Australian Consulate to learn about trade activities and future collaborations between Vietnam and Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n
