The ceremony was also another chance for guests to take a tour of the entire building, get a feel of the durability, witness the structure’s solidity, the interplay between modern and vintage architecture, as well as listening to different area functions.

Prof. Phung Xuan Nha was particularly interested in the intelligent auditorium system, the idea of the green avenue with the romantic Romeo – Juliet garden, and the library café. These groundbreaking design ideas to serve the increasingly high demands for teaching and learning among lecturers and students across the country.

Dinh Nguyen Xuan Thao (HIU’s freshman in Business Administration) wearing a red ao dai at the roofing ceremony remarked, “I am very proud of such a world-class modern and intelligent school. Such facilities as lecture halls, conference halls, library café, the green avenue and a sky bar with an overflowing swimming pool really excites and makes us look forward to experiencing it. This will be a dream school for generations of Vietnamese students.”
