Performance of universities in Vietnam

Duong Hoai An

International Journal of Educational Development, 2022, vol. 91, issue C

Abstract: The current study uses surveyed data on 134 public and private universities operating in Vietnam during 2013–2020 and applies the Malmquist Index method to examine performance of the universities. Although performance of the universities in Vietnam make progress during the study period, it can be further improved by improving the managerial and technological performance. In addition, private universities perform better than their public counterparts; universities located in urban areas perform better than those located in suburban areas; universities in the South and North regions perform better than their counterparts in the Central region. Results from the truncated regression model show that the number of enrolments and economic growth really help improve performance of the universities. Policy and practical recommendations are made based on the findings.
