Who We Are
Since its establishment in 1995 under Vietnam National University, Hanoi, Hanoi School of Business and Management (HSB) has consistently pursued the vision of becoming a pioneering institution in internationally accredited business and management education and research, while contributing to the sustainable development of Vietnam. Through an interdisciplinary approach integrating three academic pillars — Management, Security, and Technology — HSB offers a distinctive model of education and research aimed at addressing practical challenges in an increasingly dynamic global context, shaping up future leaders in both public and private sectors
HSB History
Since 1994, when the idea of a novel and cutting-edge business school in Vietnam was still emerging, Professor Joseph A. Massey worked closely with HSB’s founding team. Through collaboration with the Tuck School of Business (Dartmouth), he helped build academic foundations, develop programs, and mobilize international resources. This partnership was exemplified by the IEDP program, which enabled Vietnamese executives to access modern management knowledge and gain practical experience in the United States. These efforts laid the groundwork for a pioneering model that integrates academic rigor, industry engagement, and global integration.
