MESSAGE
FROM THE
PRESIDENT
RMIT Vietnam is the largest international offshore campus in the world and
has experienced significant growth in recent years. An overseas presence of
RMIT Melbourne, the Vietnam campuses in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi offer
many programs, from business and management to design and engineering.
Our students have the unique opportunity to connect with industry and the
wider world through our international programs and faculty.
We encourage students to think independently as well as in teams:
to think critically and creatively and solve real-world problems.
Our students gain significant exposure to the industries in which they
will work through guest speakers, industry placements and hands-on
activities. This approach to success is a major reason our graduates are
in such high demand in Vietnam and globally - and why many graduates
are in full-time jobs within three months of graduating.
For RMIT Vietnam, being part of a world-class university means we
provide qualifications at internationally recognised standards, delivered
right here in Vietnam.
Our extensive partnerships and centres across the globe give our students a multitude of opportunities.
At RMIT Vietnam students can learn from experts in their field, gain access to new ways of thinking and
develop skills at the forefront of industry. They graduate with the knowledge and practical experience
needed to begin a career with a local enterprise or a multinational company.
For today’s students there are more numerous and diverse career paths available than ever before because
of advancing technologies and rapidly developing economies. RMIT Vietnam is committed to equipping our
students with the knowledge, skills and attitudes to make the most of this ever-changing world.
Professor Gael McDonald
President, RMIT University Vietnam

STUDY AT AN
AWARDED UNIVERSITY
RMIT is one of Australia’s
tertiary institutions
RMIT is also the
sixth most
internationalised
university
in the world.
RMIT was
awarded the
5 out of 5QS
star ranking
for excellence in
higher education.
TRANSFER
OPPORTUNITIES TO RMIT MELBOURNE
RMIT Vietnam offers a wide range of options for
students. You can choose to study your entire
program in Vietnam, or you may wish to stay
in Vietnam for one or two years and then complete
your degree in Australia. Either way you receive the
same RMIT qualification and testamur. Another option is
to study in Vietnam but spend a semester or two as an
exchange student in Australia or at one of RMIT partner
institutions around the world.
During your semester abroad you pay the RMIT
Vietnam fee. In Vietnam we teach three semesters
a year. This enables you to fast-track your degree. If
you choose a full-time load for three semesters in our
undergraduate degree program, you will be able to
complete your degree in two years. Or you can choose
to take a lighter load and complete your degree in three
years by taking fewer courses each semester. Either
way, you can choose your pace.
GLOBAL EXPERIENCE
What is student exchange?
If you’re already studying at RMIT or one of our
partners, you’re in an ideal position to inject
some adventure into your learning experinence
by undertaking a Student Exchange to one of the
RMIT Vietnam campuses. Fees are still paid to
your home institution through whatever means
you currently utilise.
What is Study Abroad?
If your university is not an exchange partner with
RMIT, that is not a problem - we offer a Study Abroad
program that supports you every step of the way, from
orientation to ongoing learning support to assistance
with visas and accommodation. Fees are paid either
directly to RMIT Vietnam or via your home institution’s
Study Abroad program.
What is transfer?
Students from overseas universities can transfer credits
to existing programs and finish their degrees at RMIT
Vietnam.

STUDENT LIFE
AND LEARNING
Here at RMIT Vietnam we want to help you make the most
of your studies and enjoy your student life.
That’s why we offer academic and personal services to
help you improve your study performance, gain confidence
and benefit from the relationships you build here.
For you, coming to RMIT Vietnam is an exciting challenge
because it means moving to a new country.
We believe we can make the challenges of university in
another country a little easier by giving you the support
you need.
The Library
RMIT Vietnam’s library in both Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi has more
than 300,000 books, periodicals, e-books and e-journals. We also
have CDs, DVDs and magazines. But that’s not all. Our students also
have online access to RMIT’s huge library in Australia, across all
academic areas. Our library staff understand what students need for
their studies – and it’s not always silence! We also understand that
not all students know how to make the most of our library, so our
library staff are always ready to give a helping hand.
The Learning Skills Unit
When you need help with study skills, the Learning Skill Unit
is the place to go.
Staff there can work with you one-on-one. Or you can take a
hands-on workshop in the area you need help, such as how to get
higher marks on assignments, dealing with fear of exams or reading
and writing more effectively. The LSU helps students to be more
independent learners and achieve better results at university
- and even into their careers. And all their services are free of charge.
Counselling services
Talking to a student counsellor can help you with concerns or stress,
whether they are study-related or more personal.
RMIT Vietnam’s counsellors offer you help and support, and this free
service is completely confidential. The RMIT Vietnam counsellors are
very caring and are experienced in helping students with problems
that may affect their ability to perform well academically and live a
healthy life.
LIFE ON
CAMPUS
Welcoming you to RMIT
We want to celebrate your arrival in our beautiful country and at RMIT Vietnam. Our staff will welcome you at the
airport when you arrive, and once you have settled in, give you a tour of the city, whether it be Ho Chi Minh City
or Hanoi. A welcome dinner will give you the opportunity to meet other new students and give you a taste of
Vietnam’s delicious food and warm hospitality. And to provide information about everything you need to have
a fulfilling experience at RMIT Vietnam, you will be invited to Orientation Day, held a week before your first
semester begins.
Student Clubs
We know that social life is important to RMIT
Vietnam students. What better way is there to
meet others with common interests than to join
a university club?
On Orientation Day you can learn about the 33
student-run clubs over both our Vietnam campuses.
The clubs cover everything from sports, to culture
and community engagement.
The Student Council
The RMIT Vietnam Student Council is the key
advocate for student interests and rights on
campus. We try to influence positive changes to the
university’s structure, policies and procedures on
student matters and make sure that students are
represented on all relevant university bodies. All
council members are elected each year by RMIT
Vietnam students in a democratic process.
Besides conveying your opinions to the administration,
we are active in Green Heritage and produce the
regular student magazine, Blitz Magazine.
Sport and recreation
Sports and Recreation promotes healthy
lifestyles through state-of-the-art facilities on its
Ho Chi Minh City campus and many sports teams
on the Hanoi campus. Sports such as football,
badminton, tennis and basketball are available on
indoor and outdoor facilities in Ho Chi Minh City.
Dance and yoga studios are used by individuals
and clubs while our well-equipped gym is staffed
by qualified trainers. The Hanoi campus offers
students the chance to become involved in a
range of healthy activities on and off-campus.
Health and fitness
Life in a university can be demanding at times – but when
you feel good, no challenge is too great! The health
centres are here to help you achieve that goal.
Students can make appointments with Vietnam
and overseas-trained doctors in our health centres,
which are operated by International SOS; you can be
referred to a specialist if necessary. This service is free
and confidential.
We encourage students to maintain healthy habits
around sleeping, eating, alcohol and drug use and
maintaining an active lifestyle to stay fit.
CAMPUS LOCATIONS
Saigon South
This campus has eye-catching,
architect-designed buildings and is
surrounded by a leafy environment.
Just 15 minutes from the city centre it
offers world-class education facilities,
wireless technology, excellent sport and
recreation facilities and a large food
court with Vietnamese and Western
cuisines. Comfortable student
accommodation is also available.
Pham Ngoc Thach
Also in Ho Chi Minh City, RMIT
Vietnam’s original campus location
is a specialised English language
learning centre. Catering for students
preparing for RMIT higher education
programs, it is located close to the
centre of the city.
Hanoi
In an attractive inner-city location
adjoining one of the city’s most
picturesque lakes, this campus
offers degrees in commerce and
communication, business and
information technology.
The campus is fitted with the latest
state-of-the-art learning facilities,
including use of multimedia
technology and other innovative
features to allow for small group learning
in an informal, collaborative setting.
LIVING IN
VIETNAM
In culture, food and dramatic scenery Vietnam has it all. For your student experience you are
coming to a country with millennia of history and a geography that will leave you awestruck.
The vision of 2000 pointed limestone islands rising from the Gulf of Tonkin has astounded
millions of visitors to Halong Bay; it’s a spectacular sight valued as a World Heritage site
in northern Vietnam. The mediaeval city of Hoi An, with its Japanese merchant houses and
Chinese pagodas will intrigue you as you wander it laneways – and experience its cooking
schools and silk tailors. And while you are here you must walk and swim at Vietnam’s beachs
– the warm, calm waters of Mui Ne, the turquoise sea at Nha Trang and beaches on the most
beautiful island of all, Phu Quoc. But Vietnam’s major cities, Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City,
will be your main locations.
HO CHI MINH CITY
This fast-moving, ever-growing modern city is
populated by around 9 million people.
The traffic is dizzying; street and restaurant food
offerings and entertainment are full-speed. But
beyond that are glimpses of history and culture
in the gentle quiet of Chinese pagodas and the
creativity of the Fine Arts Museum.
Ben Thanh Market will thrill and confuse you with its
flurry of merchants pressuring you to buy. Ho Chi Minh
City’s tropical climate, with its two seasons of wet and
dry, brings temperature highs of between 31 and 35
degrees celcius, with 155 rainy days a year.
“We like exploring Ho Chi Minh City including
museums, pagodas and shopping areas. We hang
out with a Vietnamese buddy who shows us many
interesting local places to explore. She showed us
how to bargain. Living in Vietnam, you have to get
used to that; sometimes sellers try to charge high
prices so we’ve learnt to negotiate. We’ve been
here for six months already and really feel part of
the local community.”
LOIC YOANNNETO
Bachelor of Commerce, French study abroad student

Ben Thanh Market, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City
HANOI
Culture and history are the key aspects of this 1000
year-old city, set on the Red River with around 8
million residents.
Hanoi’s French Quarter is a reminder that the city
was French Indochina’s capital from 1887. When you
walk its narrow historic streets with shops selling
everything from red candlesticks to lacquerware
and water puppets, you too may believe it is the
city’s historic heart.
Hanoi’s Temple of Literature, dedicated to Confucius
and the site of Vietnam’s oldest university established
in 1010, emphasises this view of the city.
Reminders of Vietnam’s more recent history in
the form of Ho Chi Minh’s Mausoleum where the
leader’s body is displayed, his humble stilt house
and his presidential palace are also in Hanoi.
In contrast, Hanoi is also the world’s fastest-growing
city, with many skyscrapers erected in recent years.
The city has a humid, sub-tropical climate of four
distinct seasons, with daily temperature highs of 19
and 33 degrees celcius throughout the year. Around
144 days of the year are rainy.
Cherry blossoms at the flower market, Hanoi
“Renting an apartment in HCMC is really cheap if
you come from a western country. There is a lot of
residential towers in District 7 with swimming pools.
You can eat for 2$, have a beer for 0.5$ and buy
really cheap clothes. However HCMC also offers
luxury restaurants and shops, so it depends on you.
But it will definitely stay cheaper than anywhere as
even for Asia it’s one of the cheapest big cities.
Honestly I think students can have a good quality
of life here. ”

VOLUNTEER WORK
OPPORTUNITIES
Vietnam is a great place to use your skills to
help people.
This country’s drive to recover from the long-term
effects of war and to educate its population,
especially in the English language, gives many
young people the opportunity to volunteer in their
spare time and holidays.
Volunteers are welcomed by institutions and nongovernmental organisations caring for children
and young people affected by Agent Orange, or in
schools, hospitals and clinics looking after mentally
disabled children.
Tasks include helping local staff in providing
rehabilitation exercises and therapeutic treatments
for children, playing with children and entertaining/
educating them with games, music and arts and
renovation work such as painting murals.
In Hanoi, orphanages, disability centres, villages and
street children shelters need help to provide love,
attention, education and life skills for these children,
and to support the local staff at these placements.
Volunteers are needed to assist in caring for children,
teaching basic English, arts and crafts, music, sports
and other life skills where possible.
A different volunteer experience is in workcamps
preserving natural resources and helping communities in
rural areas such as beautiful Sapa in northern Vietnam.
TRANSPORT
The most popular way for young people to get around
in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City is motorbike.
You can buy or rent a bike, or for individual trips you
can often use xe ôm, (literally, “hug vehicle”)
motorbikes: unofficial, unregulated motorcycle taxis
where a passenger sits on the rear of a motorbike.
To ride a motorbike of more than 50cc in Vietnam
you need a license; helmets are compulsory.
Buses and taxies are also available and taxi fares in
Vietnam are lower than in many western countries.
Longer distance travel to other Vietnamese cities or
into the countryside can be done by long-distance
bus, train and by air.
FOOD AND
SHOPPING
Both Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City have vibrant food
scenes, from cafes and restaurants to street food.
Along with food on both RMIT campuses, cafes have
reasonably-priced food in comparison with western
countries, and street food is even cheaper.
A huge array of different Asian cultures – Chinese,
Japanese, Thai and Korean - as well as Vietnamese is
available everywhere. And as you are in Vietnam longer
with you will also locate venues with more western food
choices.
You will become an expert in Vietnamese best-known
dishes, Pho and Bun Bo, noodle dishes made tangy
and satisfying when you add a squeeze of lime and a
few leaves of Vietnamese mint.
Vietnamese coffee is incomparable – and it should
be because it’s grown here! Coffee shops tempt your
tastebuds on every street corner.
Clothing, shoes and toiletry items you will need are
readily available in Vietnam and at a reasonable price if
you shop in markets and local shops.
One problem is in larger sizes, as Vietnamese people
are small. This is overcome cheaply by buying fabric
and having your clothes made.
LIVING COST
Many international students starting their university studies are moving away from home for the
first time so creating a budget is important. Vietnam is a great place for international students
since living costs, even in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, are much lower than in many other cities
in Asia and abroad. Although living costs will vary depending on your lifestyle, location and
individual circumstances, below is a general guide to living costs in Vietnam.

ACCOMMODATION
Living on campus is often hailed as the ultimate
in university experiences. At the Saigon South
campus, you can do it in style in a studio apartment
that gives you privacy to make the most of your study
and quiet time, or in a shared apartment that reduces
your costs and expands your social scene. Two airconditioned restaurants, four cafes, two large outdoor
cafeterias, a convenience store, a stationery shop
and a gym nearby if you choose to stay in the student
accommodation at Saigon South.

“Studying at RMIT Vietnam has given me
the chance to get to know a culture vastly
different from my own. Through both
interpersonal and intrapersonal development,
this has changed my world view and broadened
my perspective on life. Stepping outside my
comfort zone has taught me more than I could
have imagined.These qualities will be valuable
to my future career as the world becomes
an increasingly globalised place. Nowadays,
we are no longer restricted to business just
within our own country. Thus, an international
understanding and appreciation is an invaluable
asset in the workplace. “
