White Coat Ceremony 2026: A Meaningful Milestone for Health Sciences Students at Van Hien University
There are moments in every student's academic journey that happen only once but remain cherished for a lifetime. The White Coat Ceremony is one of those meaningful milestones—a sacred occasion where future healthcare professionals strengthen their commitment to the medical profession. More than just a uniform, the white coat symbolizes responsibility, compassion, professionalism, and dedication to serving the community.
In July 2026, the Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy, Van Hien University, solemnly held the White Coat Ceremony for students enrolled in its health sciences programs before they embarked on their clinical education and practical training at affiliated hospitals and healthcare institutions.

Held in a solemn and emotional atmosphere, the ceremony marked an important transition in each student's educational journey. As faculty members helped students put on their white coats, they were not only celebrating a new stage of professional growth but also passing on a profound message about the mission of future healthcare professionals—to always place patients at the center of care and practice medicine with knowledge, ethics, compassion, and a spirit of service.

The Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy sincerely extends its appreciation to the University's Board of Rectors, distinguished guests, faculty members, partner hospitals, parents, and all students whose support and participation contributed to the success of this meaningful event.
Receiving the white coat is not only the beginning of a professional journey but also a lifelong reminder of the noble mission that lies ahead. With solid academic knowledge, strong professional competence, and compassionate hearts, we believe our students will continue to grow into dedicated nurses, medical laboratory technologists, healthcare technicians, and healthcare professionals who are committed to improving community health and delivering high-quality patient care.
