History
ULIS is originally known as the School of Foreign Languages, founded in 1955 at Vietnam Boarding School, presently located in Hai Ba Trung District, Hanoi. After five decades of operation and development, ULIS has been recognized as the national leading center of foreign language teacher and specialist education.
Foundation and Development
In 1955, encountering the urgent demand of the national struggle for building and reuniting the country, the School of Foreign Languages was founded in the area of Vietnam Boarding School, currently situated in Hai Ba Trung District, Hanoi, with the mission of educating and training teachers and specialists in Russian and Chinese.
In 1958, the School of Foreign Languages was merged into Hanoi University of Education, forming its Faculty of Foreign Languages.
In 1964, the foundation of four distinctive faculties of Russian, Chinese, English and French language was decided by the Ministry of Education and Training.
In 1967, Pham Van Dong, the former Prime Minister of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, signed the decision to divide Hanoi University of Education into three teacher education universities under the management of the Ministry of Education and Training, known as Hanoi University of Education No.1, Hanoi University of Education No. 2, and Hanoi University of Foreign Language Education. The foundation of Hanoi University of Foreign Language Education on the basis of four foreign language faculties of Hanoi University of Education was a milestone in the national education of graduates majoring in foreign languages, meeting the urgent need of training qualified teachers and officials of foreign languages in the context of the national resisting war against the American invasion.
In 1993, with a view to renovating the higher education system, the Government of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam decided to establish Vietnam National University, Hanoi by merging three major universities in Hanoi, namely Hanoi University of Foreign Language Education, Hanoi University of Education No. 1, and Hanoi General University.
As one of the three first members of Vietnam National University, Hanoi University of Foreign Language Education since then has been widely known as the University of Languages and International Studies – Vietnam National University, Hanoi (ULIS – VNU).
