Associate Professor, Dr. Kieu Phuong Chi - Director of the Institute of Natural Pedagogy, Vinh University said that in 2018, the Institute will train high-quality Mathematics Pedagogy with 35 quotas in addition to other pedagogical majors including Mathematics Pedagogy (45 quotas); Physics Pedagogy (30 quotas); Chemistry Pedagogy (30 quotas); Biology Pedagogy (20 quotas); Informatics Pedagogy (20 quotas) and Natural Science Pedagogy (35 quotas). All of the above pedagogical majors have admission scores from 17. High-quality Mathematics Pedagogy will take scores from high to low (35 students with the highest scores will register for the Mathematics Pedagogy major).

In addition to being exempted from tuition fees, natural science students also have wide-open job opportunities because after graduation, they can choose to become teachers or continue studying at the Institute to become researchers.

Especially according to Resolution 29 of the Politburo, from 2020, primary and secondary school teachers must have a university degree.
