Concretizing studying abroad journey with New Brunswick Global Pathways

 

At the ceremony, the two sides agreed to sign a cooperation agreement, concretizing the study abroad route for students through the New Brunswick Global Pathways program. This is a model of studying abroad following the global trend, with two main routes: 1+3 and 2+2 (1-2 years of study in Vietnam and 2-3 years of study transfer at the University of New Brunswick). Students can flexibly choose the model according to their study abroad purpose.

 

Participating in the New Brunswick Global Pathways program, students will have 1-2 years to practice and hone their knowledge and skills in Vietnam. The first stage will include the basic knowledge blocks of a chosen field of study in English, which is a solid foundation for later specialized subjects. Not only that, they can also hone the soft skills necessary for studying in an international environment such as critical thinking, time management skills, and teamwork,... Then they continue to study at the second stage and receive a Bachelor's degree at the University of New Brunswick, Canada.

 

For those of who are confident in their English ability can actively choose the 1+3 route. With this route, they have a year to study in Vietnam, practice intensive English skills, improve their vocabulary and learn more about the culture of studying in Canada. On the other hand, those who are not confident enough can choose the 2+2 route. The 2+2 route gives them more time to build the necessary foundational knowledge, study abroad skills, and specialized English.
