Liberal arts courses account for 25% of the overall curriculum to train students to self-study, self-adapt and improve themselves in new environments.
TTU students will study 10 core courses to supplement their knowledge before starting their specialized subjects. Particularly, in the School of Medicine, the curriculum will be distributed year by year, with the bilingual English-Vietnamese training program, which will create the best conditions for the future doctor generation to work in both domestic and international environment. Besides, one thing that is special at TTU is that after the first year of study, students (except school of medicine) have the right to change their majors if they really find their favorite major though it is not their first choice. That gives students more opportunities, instead of having to spend a year to study the subject of their favorite. In addition, students will study 10 elective courses in other disciplines to supplement their knowledge so that students can meet different jobs after graduating.
