The integration of cross-cultural communication in Vietnam has constantly increased since this nation officially became a member of regional and international organizations such as ASEAN and WTO. This has driven Vietnam to integrating with many worldwide nations in various areas of science, technology, economics, and cultures. English language, therefore, has obviously been a bridge for cross-cultural communication thanks to its worldwide lingua franca (Brown, 1994). For these reasons, raising intercultural communicative competence (ICC) in English language curriculum has been emphasized in most Vietnamese university contexts. This study aims to investigate students’ perceptions to cultivating intercultural competence activities developed from previous scholars via a qualitative case study. The study deployed students’ reflection and open-ended questionnaire to sixty Vietnamese English-majored freshmen. The findings revealed that the student participants experienced positive knowledge, skills of interacting, and attitudes to ICC activities. Possible measures were implied for effective ICC cultivation.
