Ho Chi Minh City University Of Law

Ho Chi Minh City University of Law (HCMCULAW) is a university in Vietnam that offers undergraduate and postgraduate education in law and politics. The university plays an important role as a legal re...search and advisory body for the Vietnamese government in legal and public administrative reform. The University was established in 1996, pursuant to Decision N° 1234/GD&ĐT of the Ministry of Education and Training. It was originally merged with the Ho Chi Minh City branch of the Vietnam National University. On October 10, 2000, the Prime Minister issued Decision N° 118/2000/QWĐ-TT, which separated the Ho Chi Minh City University of Law from the Vietnam National University. It became the first Vietnamese legal training school to cooperate in a master's degree program with a foreign university (University of the West of England in Bristol, England).
