While introducing the Hungarian medical educational system Rector Dr. \u00c1goston Sz\u00e9l pointed out that it boasts a 245-year-old tradition as well as an excellent reputation. The education of medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, healthcare studies and management are internationally acknowledged and are appealing to foreign students.

Returning from the official visit Dr. M\u00e1ria Judit Moln\u00e1r said that the Vietnamese were greatly interested in graduate and PhD programmes in the biomedical and healthcare science fields, as well as in postgraduate specialist training courses. The plenary programme and the professional workshops were followed by bilateral discussions where Semmelweis University received a lot of attention and extensive consultations were held with three Vietnamese institutions. The University of Ho Chi Minh City would preferably establish a co-operative partnership in the field of molecular biology research. A Memorandum of Understanding had already been signed by two institutions, however the points of co-operation need to be specified.<\/p>\n
