Strengthening the Relationship between Universities and Enterprises in Scientific Research to Meet the Requirements of Education Quality Accreditation

The relationship between universities and enterprises is an important factor because it originates in objective needs and harmoniously ensures the interests of the state, universities, and enterprises. University-Enterprise relationship plays a vitally important role in ensuring and enhancing the quality of training products of universities, as well as the quality of human resources of enterprises. In addition, such a relationship makes practical contributions to overcoming the limitations of both sides if only one party implements it, especially in scientific research. In the context that Vietnam's Higher Education is in the process of integration, the quality of universities must be objectively evaluated and recognized through educational accreditation activities, which is a mandatory activity in Vietnam. For the accreditation of educational institutions, universities in Vietnam have many difficulties in meeting scientific research standards owing to the limited financial resources to carry out scientific research activities in practice. Therefore, strengthening the relationship between universities and enterprises, not only benefits both universities and enterprises but also contributes significantly to improving scientific research activities at universities to meet the requirements of education quality accreditation.
