On May 6, 2025, the University of Languages and Social Sciences - Humanities (LHSS) hosted its 2025 Student Research Conference. This yearly event gives students a chance to boost their thinking skills, creativity, and ability to link research to real-life social issues.

The conference welcomed Dr. Truong Tien Vu, Head of the Science and Technology Department at Duy Tan University, Dr. Hoang Thi Huong, Vice President of LHSS, along with faculty leaders, department heads, and students.

In her opening speech, Dr. Hoang Thi Huong said, "In today’s digital world, where AI is everywhere, social sciences and humanities research must keep up. At LHSS, students and teachers are using digital tools, big data, and AI to study language, culture, media, and social behavior. This makes research broader and more accurate."

During the 2024-2025 school year, LHSS students completed 26 research projects. Faculty reviews showed these projects improved greatly, offering strong academic quality and practical solutions for issues in language, culture, society, media, and humanities education.
