Reporting on the institution’s performance in the 2025–2026 academic year, Major General Do Anh Tuan, Rector of the People's Police University, highlighted significant achievements in education, scientific research, digital transformation, and innovation. The university has revised training programs, modernized teaching methods, expanded English-medium instruction, and piloted the use of artificial intelligence in lesson development.

During discussions, representatives of various faculties and departments raised issues related to teaching, training quality, digital transformation, and foreign-language instruction. Members of the Ministry’s delegation also provided guidance on a range of proposals and recommendations.

At the meeting, Deputy Minister Le Quoc Hung requested the university’s leadership and departments to identify challenges and shortcomings in training and management, clarify their causes, and propose solutions. He also called for strategic orientations and breakthrough initiatives to support the university’s development through 2030.

Concluding the meeting, Deputy Minister Le Quoc Hung praised the university’s efforts and achievements despite existing challenges.

The Deputy Minister stressed the need to shift educational thinking from obtaining degrees and certificates to developing practical professional competence. He called for building a high-quality teaching staff and developing a smart university model. Faculty members should be given more opportunities to participate in major investigations, legislative drafting, and practical law-enforcement activities to strengthen their real-world experience.

Regarding digital transformation, the Deputy Minister proposed computer-based examinations, biometric student management, and greater emphasis on research into emerging issues such as electronic evidence, financial investigations, cryptocurrencies, and digital payment systems. He also suggested raising English-language standards for students in order to support the Ministry’s goal of increasing the number of officers capable of working independently in international environments.

Deputy Minister Le Quoc Hung expressed confidence that the People's Police University would continue its strong development and become one of the region’s leading law-enforcement training institutions.
