Recap Professional Development Workshop # 5

On the morning of March 16, 2023, the Faculty of Language and International Culture organized the 5th session of the academic development seminar, with the participation of two special guest speakers with extensive research and publishing experience: Dr. Tri Hoang Dang and Dr. Susan Germein, both from Australia.

During the seminar, Dr. Tri Hoang Dang, through specific illustrations, analyzed and shared with professors, lecturers, and students how to write the Introduction and Data Analysis sections – the ‘decisive’ parts of any research thesis or scientific article.

Due to geographical distance, Dr. Susan Germein participated in the online seminar, sharing her experience of the journey of obtaining a PhD in India, a completely unfamiliar culture to her. Dr. Susan Germein will bring a perspective of a researcher in the field of ethnography. With a modern qualitative approach (post-qualitative approach), she helped us understand more about the qualitative research process and the important ethical decisions that qualitative researchers like her need to make in their thesis writing.

It is certain that the sharing of Dr. Tri Hoang Dang and Dr. Susan Germein is particularly useful for professors, lecturers, and students.
