“I am very excited that our school has entered this agreement with Vietnam National University,” Dean Klein said. “It demonstrates the global reach of McKinney Law, and I look forward to seeing productive relationships develop between our institutions’ faculty and students in the years ahead.”
“This relationship creates a wonderful opportunity for McKinney to strengthen its international engagement,” said Professor Karen Bravo, Associate Dean for Graduate Studies and International Affairs. “Our collaboration with VNU UEL on legal education in Vietnam enriches U.S.-Vietnam connections, and will allow our stakeholders to engage in rich global learning.”
“I am thrilled that VNU UEL lecturers and students will have many opportunities to come to IU McKinney School of Law,” said Professor Xuan-Thao Nguyen. “I look forward to working with my colleagues at IU McKinney in contributing to UEL’s academic initiatives.”
