Innovation-creativity is an inevitable trait of any organizations or sociaties. Without it development is impossible. Higher education is not an exception and has to catch up with the current rapid technological and job trends. I have talked about some of the challenges faced by universities today.

First, the increasingly higher demands from employers of students' qualities and skills in addition to professional knowledge require game đánh chắn online đổi thưởng to innovate by balancing the provision of knowledge with the provision of skills and positive thinking for students.  Universities' training affairs are in danger of falling behind the new demands caused by fluctuations in job markets.

Second, students increasingly demand not only a learning environment and knowledge but other services such as facilities, equipment, self-study spaces, canteens, opportunities to do internships or go on field trips (especialy to foreign countries), clubs for special interest, extracurricular activities, the university-business connection and career counseling. There is an existential reality: the philosophy "study hard to live easily" of 20th century's students are considered "skewed" by 21st century's students that regard studying at universities "not merely as a preparation for life, but as life itself". Thus, universities in the world invest more and more in facilities to attract and encourage students to work and live right at campuses and thus remain attached to them. 

Third, there is a risk of decreasing numbers of students majoring traditional disciplines, especially the already unpopular basic sciences. In recent years, the total number of Vietnamese students at domestic universities has regularly declined, while that of overseas students has strongly increased, not to mention "stationary students" pursuing distance or online courses provided by foreign universities, and international joint programs with domestic institutions. According to an annual report titled "Open Doors" by the Institute of International Education, the number of Vietnamese studying in the US has increased consistently in 17 years, reaching 24.325 in 2018, meaning over 800 million USDs have been transferred from Vietnam to the US, not to mention the Vietnamese students in other foreign countries.

Fourth, the shift of job opportunities for graduates to non-public sectors (private, international, non-governmental, start-up sectors) requires a restructuring of training curricula and the length of classroom's sessions, the development of integrated skills and the proactiveness and positive thinking of students so they are able to adapt to different working environments in the future. The World International Summit of Education in New York on September, 2018 emphasized the importance of teaching a "life-long learning" thinking because knowledge gained at universities will become quickly out-of-date. Therefore, only when equipped with a life-long and regular learning outlook can workers adapt to the changes in future career.

Fifth, the stagnant innovation in higher education governance is what education experts have been warning about, especially for universities in the public sector. This leads to failure to catch up with global higher education trends, regressed thinking, the inability to forecast the trends of labor markets or even to recognize the changes in students' demands, causing higher education governance to lag behind their increasingly higher requirements. 

The current structure of majors generally progresses more slowly than the advancement of job and labor markets, especially in the context of the fourth industrial revolution. However, to be fair, the structure introduced by the Vietnamese government is not entirely "static" or "closed" but amended with the suggesstions given by training institutions. Thus, universities have to recognize both their rights and responsibilities in creating new programs based on future demands for human resources, implement them in practice, then make suggestions to the Ministry of Education and Training on creating new majors. For example, over two decades ago, game đánh chắn online đổi thưởng was the first institution to launch Tourism studies, which has been recognized as an official major by the government.

Before, discources on "majors" and "professions" are mentioned in close and organic connection with each other. According to normal thinking, graduates tend to find jobs that correspond to the majors they were trained in, which go with the respective job titles and codes provided by the government. However, in recent years, the "major-profession" boundary becomes more and more blurred and it has been popular to choose a profession not similar to one's trained major. After all, this is common in every society given the current trends of labor markets, the workforce in developed countries and Vietnam's domestic policies, especially the strategy of reducing personnel and repositioning staff, officers and officials according to Resolution 18 and Resolution 19 issued at the 6th Plenum of the 7th Party Central Committee.

The most important thing is training institutions have to quickly and thoroughly recognize the above reality to properly restructure their majors. In addition to introducing new majors for training human resources in a 4.0 society, they can reduce the amount of credits attached to old majors or combine relevant majors to create new ones. When human resources are no longer needed in a major it should be abandoned despite our nostalgic and regretful feelings, save for some basic disciplines required by every society and in which the state regularly invests.

Given the recent developments in labor markets and employment trends in the next decade, what needs to be taken in consideration is how to combine the three elements: "major" of the Ministry - "profession" of the teachers - and "career" of the students. While the state has been rather liberal in arranging majors and markets have made known of their developments to students, lecturers and universities have to resolutely and actively serve as the bridge between students and employers. In other words, whoever is a Teacher has to be continuously innovative and creative to both maintain his passion and profession and ensure the creation of new majors that provide enough job opportunities to students in the digital era.

Many viewpoints have been proposed. I personally think that inter-disciplinarity and trans-disciplinarity will constitute the main feature of the higher education ecology as it is currently guided by the principle of connectivity and innovation-creativity. 

For a rather long time, Vietnamese higher education has been pursuing narrow and specialized training. Special majors do have their advantages, but in the digital era of artificial intelligence and the internet of things, inter-disciplinarity and trans-disciplinarity prove to be more advantageous. Recently education experts have regularly mentioned the "T-shaped people" model based on the combination of knowing something about everything and knowing everything about something (which belongs to the former I-shaped People). The new reality requires prospective workers to have broad knowledge and integrate many problem-solving skills rather than only specialized and narrow abilities, which can be provided for by artificial intelligence. For example, in many nations today, single positions such as hotel receptionist, tour guide, and sales staff have been completely taken over by robots, and in the near future, more complicated jobs such as interpretation, law counseling, and teaching can also be performed by AI. Thus, human resources in the 4.0 era need to combine knowledge from different disciplines and be equipped with inter-disciplinary and multi-area knowledge, positive thinking and integrated skills.

Especially, in addition to scientific and technological knowledge (STEM), the utmost importance of philosophy, ethics, humanities and arts have been emphasized. At the recent International Education Summit, President of the Institute of International Education (IIE) Allan Goodman said technologies that can transform society on a large-scale need to be supplemented by a strong ethical foundation, and ethical and moral judgments can become revolutionary in the 4.0 era. 

- What advantages do game đánh chắn online đổi thưởng have when implementing inter-disciplinary/trans-disciplinary and the spirit of innovation-creativity?

game đánh chắn online đổi thưởng in particular as well as VNU Hanoi in general is well provided to train human resources in the digital era because it is a leading multi-disciplinary and multi-area higher education institution that neatly combines basic and applied sciences in Vietnam. With social sciences and humanities, in addition to maintaining the basic sciences, which are necessary for every nation-state, the University is introducing "hybrid" majors by combining existing ones. For example, apart from International studies and Anthropology, the University is developing the major "International development studies"; and beside 3 existing majors of Sociology, Social Work and Psychology, it is going to develop two applied hybrid majors of Aging and Social development.
