Abstract


The purpose of this study is to assess the current situation and, as a result, provide specific solutions for improving the quality of physical education (PE) at The University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City (UEH). By using document references, interviews, and statistical analysis, the authors have identified three major aspects that significantly influence physical training at UEH, including facilities, lecturers, and curriculum. The results show that the ratio of sporting area per student is 0.15m2, which does not meet the standard; 15.38 percent of teachers do not meet the qualification criteria, and more than half of them (53.83%) are over 50 years old; the curriculum includes 03 credits with 45 periods divided into 02 modules. Guided by the legal basis and practical conditions, and consultation with experts, 04 solutions are offered based on their scientific, necessity, and feasibility to enhance the PE quality for the UEH’s students.
