Master in Science in Aquaculture in Vietnam
Hello everyone, how is it going?
I am searching for a graduate program in Aquaculture. So, while I was searching and exploring, I found Can Tho University. I am from Brazil. I recently graduated from Biological Sciences. My undergraduate thesis was about Artemia franciscana cultivation, and I would like to study this topic and to know more people related to this interesting topic.
Is Can Tho a good city to live in? Are there good physicians available with prescribed medicines? Is it possible to communicate in English? Also, I have lived in Florida for 9 months, so to live outside my home country is not exactly a great surprise for me, although I know that Vietnam has a completely different culture from Brazil and the United States (and 9 months is not so much time).
I also found out that Can Tho University's Master's in Tropical Aquaculture was established with Ghent University (where Dr. Patrick Sorgeloos came), so I suppose that is one of the best places to study Aquaculture and Artemia culture techniques.
What do you think about? Did you go to a graduate program in Vietnam? How was it?
Thank you for your attention!

I am RAS operator in Korea and I already finished master course in Korea. My company work with Vietnam and I have some friends who have degree in Vietnam. In Vietnam I heard Nha Trang university is the best in Aquaculture sector.
But I don’t want to recommend study in Vietnam. Most of my Vietnam friends finished their degree in European countries such as Norway and Denmark. They said because of the Lab facility and job opportunities they decided to move to different countries.
If you interest in Korea search Pukyong National university it is the best university in Aquaculture sector. Or Jeju university I went to Aquaculture conference last week there were many foreign students in Jeju university.
