Therefore, it is fruitful to discuss the issue of integrated teacher education program concerning the context of teacher preparation offered in a comprehensive university. By synthesizing the related theoretical frameworks of curriculum development and evaluating the structure of the integrated program that has been implemented in VNU University of Education (VNU UED), this paper brings up some issues of teacher education curriculum components offered for pre-service teacher education in a comprehensive university, as well as proposes integrated curriculum internal and external mobility strategies.
