Project 911 is a scholarship program managed by Vietnam Education International Development (VIED), Ministry of Education and Training (MOET). The program aims to provide funding that would see 10,000 Vietnamese PhD candidates study overseas by 2020 in an effort to improve Vietnamese faculties' quality. For 2016, up to 40 scholarships will be offered to Vietnamese PhD candidates interested in pursuing their studies in Canada.
