Dear friends,
Warmest greetings and welcome to Thai Nguyen University!
Thai Nguyen University (TNU) was established on April 4, 1994, under the Government’s Decree No. 31/CP, through the reorganization and consolidation of universities located in Thai Nguyen City. TNU is one of five national regional universities in Vietnam operating under a two-tier university system.
TNU has been entrusted with an important mission: to serve as a center for training human resources for provinces, universities, colleges, and vocational schools across the region. At the same time, the university is dedicated to scientific research and technology transfer, making significant contributions to the economic, political, cultural, and social development of the Northern Midland and Mountainous Region of Vietnam.
