Sejong University has officially launched its Vietnam International Alumni Association, marking a significant step toward expanding its global alumni network. On the 6th of last month, the university held the inaugural general meeting at the Windsor Plaza Hotel in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.


Approximately 50 alumni, primarily Sejong University graduates residing in Ho Chi Minh City, attended the event to celebrate the establishment of the association and to share its future direction and plans.


The event began with an opening declaration, followed by a congratulatory video message from President Jong-Hwa Eom, welcome and congratulatory remarks, and a presentation on the university’s vision. This was followed by the official inauguration ceremony, the appointment of the inaugural alumni association president, and an acceptance speech. The program concluded with a campus update, a dinner reception, and networking sessions.


In particular, Sejong University introduced its development vision, “Sejong’s Leap to Global Top Tier,” sharing its global advancement strategy and plans to expand international collaboration with the alumni.


In his congratulatory message, President Eom stated, “I am very pleased to join, even virtually, this meaningful occasion where Sejong alumni in Vietnam gather together for the first time. I hope this meeting will reconnect the Sejong family and serve as a starting point for the Vietnam alumni community to grow through continued exchange and collaboration.” He added, “The achievements of our alumni in Vietnam are a great source of pride for Sejong University. I hope this alumni association will become a foundation for communication and cooperation among alumni and a new platform connecting Sejong University and Vietnam.”


Ngo Huu Cuong, Professor at Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology, who was elected as the inaugural president of the Vietnam International Alumni Association, said, “This inaugural meeting marks an important starting point connecting Sejong University with its Vietnamese alumni community. Based on exchange and cooperation among alumni, we will lead continuous growth and expand our network.”


The newly established Vietnam International Alumni Association plans to hold regular meetings and various exchange activities. Through these efforts, it aims to expand connections in education, research, and career development based on the Vietnamese alumni network, ultimately evolving into a collaborative platform linking Korea and Vietnam.
