KLU continues to expand its strategic partnership with Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HCMUT). On October 15th, a delegation led by KLU president Prof. Andreas Kaplan and HCMUT president Prof. Dr. Mai Thanh Phong, along with leaders of various departments, signed a detailed contract for the development, management, and operation of a joint Master’s program in Global Logistics and Supply Chain Management.
This May, KLU and HCMUT signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), followed by a cooperation agreement in August to develop a joint Master’s program, with enrollment starting in 2025. "This cooperation is an exciting next step for us. Both HCMUT and KLU share the goal of developing talent with an operations mindset - a fundamental skill in logistics and supply chain management - to meet the high demand in Southeast Asia," noted KLU President Kaplan.
The planned program combines KLU's expertise in logistics with HCMUT's regional knowledge to promote the training of young professionals in the fields of logistics and supply chain management in Southeast Asia.
