On the morning of June 15, 2025, the Faculty of Psychology officially relocated its Office from the Saigon Campus to Room B1-012 at the Linh Xuan Campus, marking an important milestone in the Faculty's development. More than simply a change of workplace, the relocation opens up a new environment that provides favorable conditions for strengthening teaching, research, collaboration across academic units, and student support as the Faculty enters its next stage of development.
The same morning also marked the first working day of the Faculty Board, faculty members, and staff in the new office. On this occasion, representatives of the Center for Psychological Research and Application (CPAR) extended a warm welcome to the Faculty as it began working at its new location.
