Update news Project 89
No candidate has received support under the project.
The financial support of VND13-20 million a year for university lecturers studying in Vietnam for doctorate under Project 89 is too low, according to some educators.
Most managers believe that VND3.5 billion is a reasonable spending level and PhD students will perform well if they choose suitable schools.
According to the Ministry of Education and Training, more than 1,200 lecturers registered to study for a PhD under the State-funded Project 89 in 2021 and over 1,300 registered in 2022.
The biggest headache for state agencies compiling talent training plans is that the recipients, after finishing courses overseas, do not return to Vietnam to serve at state agencies as they had previously promised.
Before launching Project 89 that aimed to produce 7,300 more lecturers with a doctoral degree, the Ministry of Education and Training (MOET) ran two projects on preparing human resources with doctoral and master’s degrees, worth trillions of VND.
