To become a new place for high-tech manufacturing, Vietnam needs to quickly increase the availability of Vietnam's skilled workers in STEM fields. Therefore, the Vietnam Ministry of Education and Training (MOET) introduced a new education curriculum to promote interdisciplinary education integrating STEM education in 2018. Integrating STEM education is still a massive challenge for Vietnam. There is a lack of consensus in definitions or approaches related to STEM education, a lack of quality teacher teams, and differences in teachers' beliefs about STEM education. Under the pressure of educational reform, Vietnamese education may be able to replicate practices to improve education quality.
