Agriterra Vietnam connects and supports students of the university working with agricultural cooperatives in three provinces, including Hai Duong, Thai Nguyen, and Nam Dinh. This is a valuable opportunity for them to experience the reality, to link the theory they have learned with the production environment, and to study about the careers and jobs after graduation.
