NPT Strengthening Teaching and Research Capacity of Preventive Medicine in Vietnam
The project aims to enhance the quality of teaching and research for those institutions in Vietnam producing the staff for the preventive medicine system. The objectives are to improve both technical and training capacity of the university level teachers and training conditions in preventive medicine in Vietnam.
A problem-based approach will be applied in both pre-service and in-service training. With this project the FPH wants to start the development of the new curriculum using a problem-based approach. The curriculum should meet new challenges in Vietnam, such as increasing international links that bring new health hazards such as SARS and avian influenza and new industrial developments in Vietnam that bring occupational health hazards.
