At the conference, the delegates and experts’ discussions focused on the issues of publication of research results of lecturers in the field of educational science in Vietnam; Barriers to publication of research results; Opportunities and challenges in publishing scientific research results; The status quo of the publication of research findings on international academic journals to further propose solutions and models promoting the publication of scientific research results of lecturers in the field of educational science in Vietnam in the context of international integration. The conference is also an opportunity for scientists and lecturers in the field of educational science to learn, exchange experiences, acquire and improve their professional competencies and research capabilities in order to develop scientific publication skills. This helps to strengthen research activities, contributing to improving the quality of publishing research results of lecturers in the field of educational science in the context of international integration.

In the field of education, teaching activities, scientific research and international academic publication are practical contributions of individuals to wider society. It is shown that in Vietnam, research and publication of research results have not been properly developed. Recently, the number of quantitative research in Vietnam has recorded a significant growth rate, about 17-20% annually. However, the possibility for Vietnam to progress towards the same level as the leading countries in scientific research in the ASEAN region such as Singapore, Thailand or Malaysia remains difficult.

Dr. Nguyen Lan Phuong – Vice President of NTTU presented a study on ‘Barriers to research activities as perceived by lecturers of Nguyen Tat Thanh University’

According to Ms. Nguyen Mai Lan, at Nguyen Tat Thanh University, apart from quality assurance activities, the University always prioritizes science and technology activities through practical initiatives such as regularly updating and issuing reward policies to directly support authors with internationally published articles; organizing many conferences, seminars to share research experiences, training courses to improve professional skills, scientific research and publishing skills on prestigious and highly ranked scientific journals in the world. Hence, the University also obtained great achievements in scientific research in terms of quantity and quality, evidenced by many scientific articles published in ISI/Scopus journals; prestigious domestic and international journals; scientific research projects at national, state, ministerial and departmental levels.
