Nguyen Thi Bang Huyen’s journey from the lecture hall to artistic stages
Nguyen Thi Bang Huyen is currently a third-year student in the Faculty of Cultural and Arts Management at Ho Chi Minh City University of Culture. Alongside her academic pursuits, she actively participates in a variety of activities related to arts, culture, and community programs for young people and students.
In 2026, Bang Huyen was crowned Miss Beauty of Ho Chi Minh City University of Culture. This achievement marked a significant milestone in her journey of involvement in student activities and artistic endeavors. Before and after the competition, she continued to take part in numerous cultural exchange programs, artistic performances, and charitable initiatives.

Reflecting on her personal path, Bang Huyen shares a belief that has guided her throughout her experiences: “Don’t be afraid to start, and don’t be afraid to be different.” This mindset is closely connected to the lessons she has gained through her involvement in academic, artistic, and community activities over the years.

These experiences have provided her with opportunities to work in diverse environments, ranging from performance-based events to community-oriented initiatives.
Her engagement in academic, artistic, and social activities simultaneously reflects the increasingly diverse experiences of today’s students, for whom the classroom is no longer the sole space for personal growth and development.
