Recently, member universities of the University of Danang (UD) have organized a series of activities to promote international student exchange, welcoming overseas students to experience academic life and cultural immersion. These initiatives also provide valuable opportunities to showcase UD’s dynamic, internationally oriented learning environment to global partners.

On June 29, 2026, the University of Danang - Vietnam–Korea University of Information and Communication Technology (UD-VKU) hosted the VKU-ISEP 2026 Academic and Cultural Exchange Program in collaboration with King Mongkut’s University of Technology North Bangkok (KMUTNB), Thailand.

More than an annual international exchange event, VKU-ISEP 2026 vividly reflects VKU’s commitment to the internationalization of higher education by creating an environment where university and high school students can strengthen their foreign language proficiency, teamwork, and global mindset.
As part of the program, students from both universities participated in a series of innovation-oriented academic activities, applying the Design Thinking approach and developing Business Model Canvas projects in the fields of information technology, tourism, and digital transformation.

On June 25, 2026, the University of Danang - University of Foreign Language Studies (UD-UFLS) officially launched an international student exchange program with Youngsan University, Republic of Korea.

Recognizing UD-UFLS’s vibrant academic environment, representatives of Youngsan University expressed their confidence that the exchange program and its academic, cultural, and language activities would further strengthen educational cooperation between Vietnam and the Republic of Korea, comprehensive strategic partners. The program also offers valuable opportunities for UD-UFLS students to improve their Korean language communication skills while enabling Youngsan University students to gain first-hand experience of Vietnam’s culture and people.

On June 29, 2026, a delegation of lecturers and students from Busan University of Foreign Studies, Republic of Korea, visited the University of Danang - University of Economics (UD-DUE) for academic exchange activities with faculty members and students of the Faculty of International Business.
