HSB Students Awarded Pony Chung Scholarships for the 2026–2027 Academic Year

Nguyen Tran Phuong Anh and Pham Le Xuan Tra, students of the Marketing and Communications program at the School of Business and Management (HSB), Vietnam National University, Hanoi (VNU), have been awarded Pony Chung Scholarships for the 2026–2027 academic year. On this occasion, the Pony Chung Scholarship Foundation recognized 35 outstanding students from VNU.

Recognizing Academic Dedication and Inspiring Further Achievement

Being selected for the scholarships is a recognition of the dedication and efforts demonstrated by Nguyen Tran Phuong Anh and Pham Le Xuan Tra throughout their academic journey and personal development. The awards also serve as an important source of encouragement, motivating both students to further develop their abilities, actively acquire new knowledge, and build a strong foundation for their future academic and professional careers.

For students, scholarship programs offer more than financial assistance. They provide additional motivation to strive for excellence, encourage proactive learning, and nurture aspirations for personal growth. The achievements of these two Marketing and Communications students also help promote a positive learning culture throughout the HSB student community.

Pony Chung Foundation: Supporting the Next Generation

Established in South Korea in 2005, the Pony Chung Foundation was named in honor of the late Honorary Chairman Chung Se Yung, a pioneer of the Korean automotive industry who played an important role in the development of the Pony, the first automobile designed and manufactured in South Korea. Beyond his business achievements, his legacy reflects a spirit of innovation, pioneering leadership, and a commitment to investing in future generations.

The Pony Chung Scholarship Program was introduced at Vietnam National University, Hanoi, in 2008 and has since become an annual cooperative initiative between the two institutions. Over nearly two decades, the program has supported approximately 590 scholarship recipients at VNU, helping students further develop their capabilities and expand their opportunities to access international educational environments.

Expanding Educational Cooperation Between Vietnam and South Korea

Beyond financial support, the partnership between VNU and the Pony Chung Foundation has created opportunities for postgraduate study, student exchanges, and educational experiences in South Korea. Through these initiatives, the program contributes to strengthening educational exchanges between Vietnam and South Korea while encouraging students to embrace a pioneering spirit, proactively pursue new opportunities, and prepare themselves for future challenges.
