THE DEMAND FOR BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION HUMAN RESOURCES IS RAPIDLY INCREASING – MANY OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS OF HONG DUC UNIVERSITY
In the context of Vietnam’s economy gradually recovering and restructuring toward digitalization, green transformation, and deep international integration, there is a growing demand for highly qualified, dynamic, and creative human resources capable of adapting to and operating within new trends. Human resources in the field of Business Administration (BA), characterized by dynamism, creativity, and strong capabilities in management, administration, organization, and enterprise development, are being chosen by companies as a dual solution for rapid and sustainable growth.
The labor market is “thirsty” for managerial talent with practical competencies
According to Vietnam’s labor market report for 2024–2025, the group of economics – management – business fields continues to rank among the top five sectors with the highest recruitment demand, accounting for approximately 22–25% of total new workforce demand annually. Positions related to business management, marketing, sales, human resource management, and operations make up a large proportion of job postings from small and medium-sized enterprises, FDI companies, and startups.
In the North Central region, particularly in Thanh Hoa province—where industrial, logistics, and service-trade projects are rapidly expanding—the demand for entry-level and mid-level management personnel is projected to grow by an average of 8–10% per year. Many enterprises report a shortage of candidates with well-structured management knowledge, professional working skills, and modern business thinking, especially in an increasingly competitive environment.
Business Administration students at Hong Duc University are trained in professional skills within enterprises starting from their second year.
The Business Administration program at Hong Duc University is designed with an application-oriented and practice-based approach, aligned with labor market demands, and harmoniously combining foundational knowledge with professional skills. Students are equipped with courses in management, marketing, corporate finance, human resource management, strategic management, entrepreneurship, and innovation, with a strong emphasis on practical training.
In addition, the university places great importance on internships, field placements, and enterprise engagement, organizing learning activities based on real-world case studies, company visits, and inviting experts and business leaders to participate in teaching. As a result, students have early access to real working environments and are able to enhance their professional skills while still at university.
In addition to career opportunities, Business Administration students at Hong Duc University also have opportunities to pursue further studies in domestic as well as international master’s programs. A notable example is the Master of Business Administration (MBA) program affiliated with Anhalt University of Applied Sciences (Germany), which enables postgraduate students to obtain an international degree and enhance their analytical thinking, managerial capabilities, and global career competitiveness.
Graduates of this program are equipped with modern management knowledge, leadership skills, and advanced English proficiency, providing favorable conditions to work in multinational companies, large corporations, or to start their own businesses.
The faculty team possesses high academic qualifications, strong practical capabilities, and a deep dedication to the profession.
Currently, the Business Administration Department has a total of 16 staff members and lecturers, including 04 Associate Professors, 08 PhDs, 04 doctoral candidates, and 03 Master’s degree holders, resulting in a strong proportion of highly qualified academic staff. The faculty are not only well-trained in Business Administration but have also received specialized training in logistics, e-commerce, digital economy, innovative entrepreneurship, industrial management, and foreign languages, meeting teaching demands in the context of digital transformation and international integration.
