1/ History of Formation and Development of the Volunteer Student Team of the Faculty of Construction Economics & Management (TNKT)

The Volunteer Student Team of the Faculty of Construction Economics & Management was established in 2006, with the core members being students from Course K49 of the Faculty of Construction Economics & Management, Hanoi University of Civil Engineering.

With the aim of creating a talented youth force to assist in establishing and organizing the activities and movements of the Youth Union and Student Association of the Faculty of CE&M, the Volunteer Student Team of the Faculty of Construction Economics & Management (TNKT) was formed and operates under the direct guidance of the Executive Committee of the Faculty's Youth Union – Student Association. This has further helped establish and strengthen the close link between the Executive Committee of the Youth Union and the Executive Committee of the Student Association of the Faculty of Construction Economics & Management. At the same time, the establishment of the Volunteer Student Team of the Faculty of Construction Economics & Management has created a highly favorable and official environment for Economics students to participate in meaningful activities, thereby training and developing the student's character and competence in line with social requirements.

In its early days, the Volunteer Student Team faced countless difficulties because the initial number of members was small, and they lacked extensive experience in organizing activities. However, the members of the Team were not discouraged. With determination and youthful enthusiasm, the core students of the first course continuously learned, cultivated, and accumulated experience through each activity, helping to build a solid foundation that serves as the basis for the Economics Volunteer Team to stand firm and develop until today.

After 14 years of continuous accumulation and training, the once young Volunteer Student Team of the Faculty of Construction Economics & Management has now grown strongly with a large number of participating members. The Volunteer Student Team is always the common home that gathers young, talented, and enthusiastic students, ready to dedicate their youth to general activities launched by the Faculty and the University both on and off campus.
