History
128 Years of Teaching
Hanoi University of Industry grew from two schools: the Hanoi Vocational School, founded in 1898, and the Hai Phong Vocational School, founded in 1913. Through mergers, new names and upgrades it became the Industrial Secondary School I, Hanoi College of Industry and today's Hanoi University of Industry.
President Ho Chi Minh visited the school four times. He asked its students to study hard so that they could serve the building of the country's economy, which needed many technical staff.
