Abstract

This study investigates the methodologies and practices employed in teaching Monetary Finance at Tan Trao University, aiming to provide a comprehensive evaluation and actionable recommendations. Despite the critical importance of Monetary Finance in contemporary economic education, there is limited research on its pedagogical approaches within the context of Vietnamese higher education. Through a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative data from student performance metrics with qualitative insights from faculty interviews and classroom observations, this research identifies the strengths and weaknesses of current teaching practices. The findings reveal that while certain innovative teaching strategies are effectively engaging students, there remain significant gaps in aligning curriculum content with industry standards and emerging trends. The paper proposes targeted improvements, including enhanced professional development for instructors and the integration of more practical, real-world applications into the curriculum. These recommendations aim to elevate the quality of Monetary Finance education, ensuring that graduates are better equipped to meet the demands of the global financial landscape. This study contributes valuable insights into the enhancement of educational practices in Monetary Finance and offers a framework for similar institutions seeking to optimize their teaching methodologies.
