For pharmacy students, knowledge is only truly valuable when it is tested in practice. Understanding this, the Faculty of Pharmacy at Dai Nam University (DNU) continuously expands its network of business partners, bringing the professional environment closer to students from their early years of university.

Professor Dr. Dao Van Dong - Vice Rector of Dai Nam University - highly praised the Faculty of Pharmacy as one of the key faculties in the health sciences sector of the university.

The signing of cooperation agreements with Indochina Herb Pharmaceutical Joint Stock Company and Biopharm Hoa Binh Joint Stock Company (July 25th) is not simply about adding new internship opportunities. More importantly, this is the next step in the strategy of building a learning ecosystem that connects schools and businesses, helping students learn skills from practice and grow from real-world experience.

Bridging the gap between classroom and business.

The Faculty of Pharmacy - Dai Nam University held a signing ceremony for a Memorandum of Understanding on strategic cooperation with Indochina Pharmaceutical Materials Joint Stock Company and Biopharm Hoa Binh Joint Stock Company.

Starting with their internship, approximately 250 students from the Faculty of Pharmacy will directly experience the business environment, access the processes of production, preservation, cultivation, and development of medicinal herbs; visit GMP-certified factories, warehousing systems according to WHO standards, and learn about tissue culture technology, Cordyceps sinensis, and hundreds of other medicinal herbs in practice.

Knowledge about medicinal herbs, testing, production, and quality management is no longer confined to textbooks but is observed, experienced, and compared directly in a real-world professional environment. This is how students gain a deeper understanding of their chosen field and can envision their future career path sooner.

Businesses are not just places for internships.

At Dai Nam University, businesses are considered an integral part of the training process. Students don't wait until their final year to experience the working environment; instead, they are connected with businesses throughout their studies through practical training, internships, career experiences, scientific research, and professional activities.

The collaboration with businesses ensures that training programs remain closely aligned with the practical needs of the labor market, while also providing students with opportunities to learn from experts, access technology, production processes, and the latest professional requirements of the industry.

Career-linked learning ecosystem

Dr. Nguyen Thi Vinh Hue - Head of the Pharmacy Department, gave a speech at the event.

In the context of the pharmaceutical industry, which increasingly demands practical skills, adaptability, and innovative thinking, students' advantages come not only from specialized knowledge but also from practical experience and understanding of the profession.

This is also the consistent direction of Dai Nam University: building a learning ecosystem where classrooms, businesses, and research activities work together. Students learn from practice, grow in a professional environment, and confidently enter the labor market immediately after graduation.

Because the ultimate goal is not just to train pharmacy graduates, but to train competent, experienced, and ready professionals to work in the field.
