BUILDING A GREEN AND SMART UNIVERSITY

UEH AND EFFORTS IN BUILDING A GREEN, SMART UNIVERSITY: FROM

FACILITIES TO ECO-FRIENDLY CAMPUSES

Department of Facilities Management, UEH Green Campus Project

With nearly 50 years of development, the University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City (UEH) has achieved
significant milestones in university management, comprehensive infrastructure innovation, and
advancing towards a “green” and “smart” international-standard university model. These efforts aim to
create an inspiring and creative learning environment. On their journey of promoting sustainable
education, UEH has prioritized designing and constructing new facilities according to international
sustainability standards. These include optimizing energy efficiency, water management, and waste

treatment. These actions not only reduce carbon emissions but also create a green, friendly, and
sustainable learning environment for students while expanding community access.

COMPLETE, BUILD AND UPGRADE MODERN, SMART FACILITIES
ACCORDING TO INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS

To provide an international-standard teaching and learning environment for lecturers and
students, UEH has invested in and completed numerous modern facilities over the past year, which
are now ready to serve the needs of the UEH community. Specifically, 17 classrooms at Campus B
and Campus D have been renovated, and the offices of the Department of Training and the Human
Resources and Organisation Development Department have been upgraded to smart, modern
spaces that foster creativity in teaching and working environments.
Notably, with the aim of becoming a hub for producing digital teaching resources and knowledge-
sharing media for the community, UEH was funded by the Ministry of Education and Training to
establish a studio at Campus A. This studio is fully equipped with state-of-the-art equipment,
including professional cameras, lights, screens, televisions, computers, teleprompters, speakers,
microphones, and 3D Studio Pro systems.
