On the afternoon of July 19, 2025, at the Tran Hung Dao Hall of Van Hien University, the finale of the “Van Hien Host Contest 2025” officially concluded, marking a journey of growth and discovery of students’ potential in the field of professional event hosting.
With the theme “Harmony – Service – Integrity,” the contest has not only been a platform for contestants to showcase their talents but also a place for students to practice the core values that Van Hien University strives to spread.
This year’s contest is one of the highlighted activities in the series of events celebrating the 28th anniversary of Van Hien University (July 11, 1997 – July 11, 2025). Nearly 100 contestants from various faculties and institutes within the Van Hien University ecosystem participated in the preliminary round. Through skill challenges, stage confidence, and adaptability, the organizers selected the TOP 15 best contestants to enter the finale.
In the finale, contestants randomly drew their performance order and content according to three main themes: Harmony – Service – Integrity. Each contestant had to create a simulated program, take on the role of a host and handle unexpected situations posed by the judges on stage. With 7 minutes for their presentation, contestants had the chance to showcase their logical thinking, language expression, and confident stage presence.
The three themes carried profound meanings:
- “Harmony” emphasized the balance between the individual and the collective, between knowledge and ethics, between theory and practice.
- “Service” conveyed the spirit of contribution, dedication, and readiness to act for the community.
- “Integrity” affirmed the ultimate goal in education: helping students develop their personalities, live responsibly, and contribute meaningfully to society.
Each performance was not just a display of skill but also a journey of self-reflection and affirmation of personal values within Van Hien’s academic community.
The judging panel consisted of leading experts in event hosting, media, and education, such as Associate Professor Dr. Nguyen Thi Thu Trang, Dr. Le Si Hai, MC Nguyen Khang, and MC Co Tan Minh Quang.
The finale was divided into two main sections. In the first section, the TOP 15 contestants performed their individual rounds based on the drawn topics. After the judges’ evaluation, the TOP 5 best contestants advanced to the second round, where they were challenged to deliver a social message, express their personal viewpoint, and engage in a debate with the judges.
