“[We] believe that young people deserve a world-class education right here in Vietnam.

It's one of the reasons why we're very excited that


… the new Fulbright University Vietnam will open in Ho Chi Minh City – [Vietnam’s] first independent, non-profit university.”
President Barack Obama
Hanoi, Vietnam, May 24, 2016

Join us in reimagining the University.

Who we are: We are Fulbright University Vietnam, Vietnam’s first independent, non-profit, liberal
arts, sciences and engineering university. We are an expanding international team of educational
innovators, with deep roots in Vietnam, strong political and financial backing, and connections to
educational institutions around the world. We believe in the power of collaboration, active learning,
transdisciplinary thinking, and risk-taking, and we understand that effective education requires
putting students at its center.

What we are doing: We are creating Fulbright University Vietnam’s flagship undergraduate
program: a 21st century liberal arts education that spans engineering, arts and letters, and the
sciences. Fulbright’s undergraduate program is currently in its first year of operation, with a
founding class of 115 students. The program is being developed with a spirit of “co-design,” where
teams of faculty, staff and students enhance features of the university in processes of user-centered
design. We are creating an institution that transforms the lives of young people, addresses the
pressing needs of Vietnam, and ultimately points the way toward a new approach to high quality
education in developing countries. You can learn more about our institution at
www.fulbright.edu.vn.

The opportunity: Join Fulbright as a Faculty Member to be part of the team building a new
approach to university education from the ground up. Fulbright seeks scholars and educators who
care deeply about developing students as engaged learners and citizens, working in a
transdisciplinary environment without traditional departments, and participating in a student-
centered start-up university environment. Our diverse body of students is exceptional, both within
Vietnam and internationally. The admissions process is highly competitive, with students
selected on the basis of academic excellence, community-mindedness, eagerness to learn,
independence, innovation, and autonomy.

Located in Ho Chi Minh City, our institution is in one of Southeast Asia’s most rapidly developing
and dynamic cities, offering a blend of traditional and modern cosmopolitan life.

To apply: If you share our values, are up for the rewards and challenges of working in a non-
traditional environment, and have or expect to have a terminal degree or equivalent experience
in the arts, humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, computational sciences or engineering,
we would love to hear from you. We are particularly seeking applicants with the disciplinary
backgrounds listed below, but will consider all qualified applicants.

computer science • a social science field with an emphasis on Vietnam or Southeast Asia
