Regarding the University’s Renaming:
On December 26, 2025, the Prime Minister issued Decision No. 2809/QĐ-TTg, officially renaming Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology and Education to Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology and Engineering (HCM-UTE). The change reflects the University’s multi-disciplinary development orientation, strengths in technology and engineering, and its current stature.
Prior to 2007, the University was a leading institution in technical teacher education. Since 2007, in response to changes in the national academic program classification system, the University has expanded its focus on technology, engineering, and related fields. The renaming aligns with the national higher education network development plan for 2021–2030, with a vision to 2050, meeting workforce demands in the digital transformation era while affirming its role as a key national university in technology and engineering.
