THE COLLEGE

The College of Health Sciences (CHS) is committed to developing world-class research and providing outstanding healthcare education. We aim to be an agent of change in medical education reform and health sciences research. We strive to attract and develop healthcare leaders who will advance health sciences locally and globally.

CHS’s strategic partner within Vingroup is the Vinmec Healthcare System—the leading private, not-for-profit provider in Vietnam, comprising 10 hospitals and outpatient clinics (1,600+ beds). Vinmec is the only provider in Vietnam with two JCI-accredited hospitals (Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City). Vinmec Times City in Hanoi is our primary teaching hospital and the only academic JCI-recognized hospital in the country, offering students robust clinical exposure and a strong care–education–research environment.

CHS currently offers undergraduate programs in Medicine and Nursing, and six residency programs in Internal Medicine, General Surgery, Pediatrics, Radiology, Orthopedics, and Anesthesia. All programs at CHS are competency-based and were developed with international standards and benchmarking. Our strategic academic alliance partner is the University of Pennsylvania. With international standard curricula, a blend of international and Vietnamese faculty, modern pedagogical approaches, and technology-forward infrastructure, we ensure cutting edge education and research opportunities across programs in a supportive and collaborative culture. Our graduates are prepared to become leaders, innovators, and scientists with an entrepreneurial mindset.

VinUni CHS received official recognition from ACGME International, a renowned international accrediting organization, for the high quality of its postgraduate medical education programs at institutional level. This marked CHS as the first medical education institution in Vietnam and only the second in Southeast Asia, following Singapore, to attain such recognition. In March 2024, ACGME-I accredited 3 residency programs at CHS (Internal Medicine, General Surgery and Pediatrics), which recognized VinUni again, for the first time in Vietnam with 3 “program level” accreditation. CHS is also the first and only institution in Vietnam with ACEN Candidacy recognition for Nursing education program.

In research and innovation, CHS is a pioneer in 3D technology in medicine in Vietnam and have strong focus areas in precision medicine, living therapies, population health and systems science, and health technology.
