Top medical keywords: 7 students admitted to residency programs, 1 valedictorian in their specialty.

Six years ago, nearly 100 students chose to place their trust in the Medical program at Dai Nam University (DNU) from its very inception. Today, that trust has been rewarded with convincing results: 95.4% of students completed their training program on time, many new doctors were recruited immediately after graduation, and notably, 7 out of 8 students who took the residency exam were accepted, including one top student in Obstetrics and Gynecology.

These initial achievements are not only a source of pride for the students but also serve as clear evidence of the quality of training in a young field of study that is gradually establishing its position through the success of its students.

In 2020, Dai Nam University enrolled its first medical class, marking the beginning of its journey to train future generations of doctors, with nearly 100 students admitted.

From the belief of the first cohort of students

In 2020, the Medical Faculty of Dai Nam University enrolled its first cohort of students, marking the beginning of a journey to build and develop a specialized field of study with the most stringent training requirements in the higher education system.

At that time, alongside the high expectations, there were also considerable concerns about the training capacity of a very new field of study. However, nearly 100 students chose to place their trust in Dai Nam University to pursue their dream of becoming doctors.

Six years later, those same first students provided a compelling answer through their academic achievements and professional careers.

The first classes for K14 medical students at Dai Nam University.

Out of nearly 100 students who enrolled, 95.4% completed their training program and graduated. This is a remarkable completion rate for a program with a 6-year training period and particularly demanding professional requirements.

Not only did many new doctors graduate on schedule, but they were also hired by medical facilities immediately after graduation, while many others chose to continue their studies and research to further their careers.

In particular, the achievements of the group of students participating in the residency exam made a remarkable mark on the first training course of the Medical program at Dai Nam University.

Medical residency, one of the most challenging paths in the medical field.

In the medical training system, residency programs are considered highly competitive and selective postgraduate training programs.

Each year, the number of admissions is limited while the competition rate remains high. This is an intensive training environment for students with excellent academic abilities and a long-term career and research orientation.

Therefore, the fact that 7 out of the first 8 students from Dai Nam University who took the entrance exam were admitted is of special significance.

Notably, student Can Khanh Linh excelled and became the valedictorian of the Obstetrics and Gynecology residency program, making a significant mark for the first graduating class of the program.

For a new academic program with its first graduating class, this result is not only a success for the individual students but also reflects the effectiveness of the training process that has been built and perfected over the past six years.

More importantly, this is only the result of the first exam. Many other students in the cohort are continuing to prepare for residency exams at Hanoi Medical University, Hanoi University of Medicine and Pharmacy - Vietnam National University, Hai Phong University of Medicine and Pharmacy, and many other leading medical training institutions nationwide.

The quality of training is proven by practical results.

Associate Professor, Doctor of Medicine Hoang Duc Hanh - Head of the Faculty of Medicine, Dai Nam University, former Deputy Director of the Hanoi Department of Health, said that the achievements of the first cohort of students have special significance for the University.

"Training doctors is a long journey, requiring serious investment, responsibility, and perseverance. The results of these students are clear evidence of the quality of training, the efforts of the learners, and the dedication of the teaching staff over the years."

According to Associate Professor Hoang Duc Hanh, what is đáng proud of is not only the high admission rate but also the fact that these achievements come from the very first cohort of medical students at Dai Nam University.

"You are the clearest evidence of the values that the University has consistently built. Your success shows that Dai Nam University students are fully capable of competing and asserting themselves in the leading medical training environments nationwide."

He believes that the success of the first cohort will further motivate the school to continue investing in training, scientific research, and the development of high-quality medical personnel to serve society.

A teacher's greatest happiness is seeing their students grow and mature.

As one of the lecturers who directly accompanied the students throughout their 6 years of study, Associate Professor Dr. Hoang Thi Thanh - Head of the Pediatrics Department, Faculty of Medicine, Dai Nam University - could not hide her emotion when receiving the good news from her students.

"In recent days, I have continuously received good news from my students. Many of my students have been accepted into residency programs at leading medical universities nationwide. In particular, one student achieved the top rank in their specialized field."

According to her, behind those achievements lies a journey of persistent learning, practice, and training over many years.

"What makes me proud is not only the achievements of the students but also their growth throughout their academic journey. A teacher's success is not measured by individual accolades but is reflected in the growth and success of their students. Each generation of students maturing, each young doctor continuing to climb new heights in their career, is the most meaningful reward for those of us in education."

From the medical lecture halls of Dai Nam University to new milestones in my career.

Sharing his feelings after receiving the acceptance letter, Vu Quang Phu, a newly admitted resident in Surgery, said: "The moment I received the results was very difficult to describe. I thought about my family, my teachers, and the past years of studying. To achieve this result, my classmates and I have worked very hard. We are grateful to our teachers who have always supported, guided, and motivated us throughout our studies."

Meanwhile, Can Khanh Linh, the top-scoring resident in Obstetrics and Gynecology, said that the achievement was both a source of joy and a responsibility.

"The title of Valedictorian is a great joy, but it also comes with a greater responsibility. I aspire to continue studying, researching, and training to become a highly skilled and ethical doctor who can contribute more to the community."

The pioneers

In higher education, there is no more compelling measure of success than the success of the student.

From nearly 100 students enrolled in the first cohort, 95.4% graduated after 6 years of training. In the first residency exam, 7 out of 8 students who took the exam were admitted, including one valedictorian in their specialty. Many new doctors were recruited immediately after graduation, while many others continued their advanced studies at leading medical training institutions.

These results show that the journey of young doctors at Dai Nam University in conquering academic and professional levels continues with many promising prospects ahead.

Six years ago, they were the first students to place their faith in a field that was still very new. Today, they are paving the way for future generations with their professional competence, dedication, and initial successes in their medical careers.

For the Medical Faculty of Dai Nam University, these figures are not only proud achievements but also compelling evidence of the quality of training, verified by the success of its students.

From the first doctors of Dai Nam University, a new journey is unfolding. And today's milestones will continue to inspire the next generations of medical students on their path to conquering knowledge, serving community health, and writing more beautiful stories of the medical profession.
