I. GENERAL INFORMATION
The Faculty of International Business and Economics (FIBE) under the VNU University of Economics and Business (UEB) is formerly known as World Economics Department, founded in November 1974 under Faculty of Political Economics - University of Hanoi. In 2007, with the establishment of the University of Economics and Business (formerly the Faculty of Economics), FIBE was officially established, marking the turning point which was towards the strong development phase. Based on active enthusiasm and innovation, the Faculty has gradually proved itself as an important part of the UEB in terms of education-training, extracurricular activities and career orientation for students. In a short period, the Faculty has cooperated with many businesses, investors and foreign universities in providing the best academic and training environment. The Faculty has also held many workshops, meetings and talks with renowned speakers as well as organized annual events and activities to improve the quality of teaching, learning and research. In 2010, the Faculty has proposed to change its official name to Faculty of International Business and Economics to better match with the orientation of research and training towards world-class standard.
The Faculty of International Business and Economics was chosen as the first unit to implement the honors program as well as apply the CDIO standard in its training program - one of key development orientation of the Vietnam National University, Hanoi and the University of Economics and Business. This is a golden opportunity for the Faculty to achieve the goal of enhancing training quality towards international and regional standard.

Additionally, the Faculty is proud to be the first faculty of the UEB to have the undergraduate honors program accredited by the Asian University Network (AUN).
