We all have once locked ourselves in our own invisible cage named “fear”. But you know what? No pain no gain. But, studying abroad isn’t even that painful for you to learn something great! “Life begins at the end of your comfort zone”. It’s time to break your cage, our friends. Check out the list of benefits below to see what the point of studying abroad is!
If you don’t want to make new international friends
Making international friends has never been so easy when you are studying in a foreign country and always get surrounded by international students. HCMUT – Bach Khoa runs various culture exchange events annually to provide students with cross-culture skills that are greatly needed in a globalized world. What a global village HCMUT – Bach Khoa is! Why not come and join us?
“As you might know that studying in a foreign country could be very hard because you have to communicate with native and other countries people. Fortunately, in HCMUT – Bach Khoa, there is an OISP International festival to introduce other countries and other cultures. I think it is the biggest chance not only to show your country pride but also to make friends with Vietnamese and students around the world. In this country, people are very kind and helpful so to advise you, you don’t need to be shy and just try to make friends.” – Kang Minwoo, Computer Science, Intake 2016.
If you don’t want to purge yourself of self-deprecation
Have you guys ever thought that your self-doubt is limiting your abilities and making your achievements seem less important? If you have, it’s your time getting some new breeze for your mind by studying abroad and opening yourself to a new world. Studying abroad in Vietnam definitely provides you a totally new environment where people are here not to judge but help you to learn and grow. At HCMUT – Bach Khoa, students always feel welcomed by people here whether it’s friends, lecturers, or officers.
“We are friends but more importantly we are family, they taught me how to laugh with people, how to connect with people and we do so many fun activities such as organizing events and meeting people from other countries. Adapting to things such as food, places, shopping, and the education system can be very hard, but you have to be patient because you know what to do so.” – Zulu Chilumba, Environmental Engineering, Intake 2018.
If ‘comfort-zone’ seems fine to you
Being in your comfort zone must be… comfortable. But, do you know that sometimes your comfort zone can also be the most dangerous place on earth? We get grown-up by picking up opportunities to do things we have never done. If you succeed, you win. However, even if you fail, you get wiser. And HCMUT – Bach Khoa is providing you THIS opportunity with scholarships up to 75% of the top engineering university in Vietnam. Big chance to try new things!
“I live half away across the world from my home country. So, everything in this city wasn’t like anything I have seen in my life, starting from food, people and habits, things we were doing, customs and stuff. Most remember about this place is that it pushes your face to limits. Studying here for 2 years makes me feel like I’m doing something actually worthwhile.” – Muhammed Elabd, Environmental Engineering, Intake 2018.
If you don’t want to… gain weight!
Vietnam has always been renowned for its superb cuisine ranging from appetizing and ambrosial meals to dishes smelling ‘peculiar’ yet so tasty! Surprisingly, you probably find it easy to assimilate into Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon)’s culture. Because right in here, you can find your lovely hometown taste in foreign restaurants to get over homesickness, or you can even try very local dishes from Northern to Southern Vietnam.
They are all here in Saigon waiting for you to try. So guys, even if you might look a bit chubbier, please don’t mind it because it’s totally worthwhile!
