Going to colleges, vocational schools instead of universities, or pedagogy colleges is the current trend among many students. In the past, high-school graduates rushed to study in universities with the hope of working in public sectors to get job stability after graduation. However, these days students no longer consider public service jobs as dream ones, and they choose appropriate careers for skill development.
So what exactly are colleges and vocational schools? How is the future for graduates after studying in vocational schools? Who can study? Join MITC to learn more about college and vocational education.
Studying in colleges and vocational schools saves time and money
It takes students 2 or 3 years to finish vocational programs rather than 4 or 5 years in universities, even 6-7 years for some specialized educational institutions. Therefore, they could save a lot of expenditure, time, and effort and learn practical skills for the workplace. More importantly, they can work early and make a living to cover basic expenses while other peers still depend on the family to pay for costs to study higher education.
At Mien Trung Industry and Trade college, there are 19 majors in the fields of Engineering – Technology, Economy – Finance, Service – Tourism – Restaurant – Hotel; in which there are seven high-quality majors: Metal Cutting, Industrial Electrical, Air Conditioning and Air Conditioning Engineering, Hi-Tech Welding, Industrial Electronics, Travel Guides, and Information Technology. On top of that, the Metal Cutting curriculum transfers from the German vocation training program, and students will receive the German degree after finishing the course.
Advantages when you study at the college level:
– If you register for a college, you will receive a PRACTICE ENGINEER degree after graduation and continue to pursue a university degree at the school (about 1.5 to 2 years later).
– The curriculum with 70% practical time will attract students and improve necessary professional skills.
– The school promises to offer suitable job vacancies to learners after graduation. In particular, students can receive a salary of 2-4 million VND /month during the internship semester at the enterprise. The college provides students with consultation, financial support, and start-up skills.
– State policies for students are applied. Especially, the school offers five full scholarships worth nearly 40 million VND to candidates having high school graduation exam results over 18 points.
– The school supports 50% of tuition fees for first-year female students who register for technical majors.
– Trainees will receive financial support when participating in the program of intern training and labor export in Japan, Korea, and the Federal Republic of Germany with a salary of 40- 80 million VND / month.
– Tuition:

+ Economic majors: 7,800,000 VND / year
Therefore, studying college is a wise choice to open a bright future for you with low study costs and high-quality vocational training.
Higher job opportunities
Currently, our country faces the problem with bachelor overabundance but skilled worker shortage. Every year, thousands of higher education graduates can not get jobs. And news about valedictorians returning to hometowns to raise pigs, fish, or do gardening frequently occurs in newspapers. At first, we may be surprised at the information about this tendency. But that shows a fact that unemployment among bachelors has been more and more common. Likewise, those who choose colleges and vocational schools can easily find a job suitable for their major, with a “desirable” salary. Furthermore, they are more likely to get promoted if they work hard. Besides, they also have great chances to work in other countries. At MITC, there is a labor export program to Japan with a salary of not less than 30 million VND per month. The school is cooperating with Akane company, ensuring to teach qualified Japanese so that you can meet Japanese language requirements to work in Japan, as long as you have enough determination.
Suitable for your competence
In previous years, people were more likely to work in domains related to academy and administration. And high-school graduates were always encouraged to go to universities at any cost by their families to get office jobs and work in public sectors. However, everything has eventually changed. Doing what you love and your ability to meet job demands are better than having stable and boring job positions. The most important thing is to choose majors and schools that are suitable for your competence, interest, and family economic status.
With a wide range of professional opportunities for you to choose from, MITC is ready to welcome and support you on your career path.
