They hoped to visit the outstanding universities and understand Taiwan higher education development and situation. Director Liou Yung Yung had once studied Mandarin in NTNU. They had called on National Cheng Kung University and National Tsing Hua University already.
Huế University set the first example that the entire school students took the Test of Chinese as a Foreign Language (TOCFL). Mandarin was become more and more important in Vietnam. Huế University hoped to cooperate with NTNU and enhanced the Mandarin teaching quality in Vietnam.
