Season four of “Sinh vien the he moi” is scheduled to air on VTV3 at 9:30 p.m. every Saturday from October 17, 2026, following an October 8 launch announcement in Hanoi. Thanh Nien reports an extended fieldwork stage requiring teams to consult intended beneficiaries and test projects locally. Featured ideas include culinary heritage preservation and AI-assisted emissions monitoring. The program aims to move student proposals into practice, where their community impact will need to be demonstrated.
