In the context of all countries are moving towards a dynamic and developed economy, it would be impossible not to mention the "labor factor". Obviously, this is an influential factor because the higher quality of labor resources will result in a more conveinent and easier economic development process and vice versa. However, the social mobilization of labor resources, especially high-quality S&T human resources, has become a tough reality. This phenomenon has become more and more popular and complicated within organizations and countries. There are many manifestations of the social mobility phenomenon of high quality S&T human resources, but in this article, the authors focus on two social mobility flows which are social mobility with migration, also known as "brain drain" and social mobility without migration – "internal brain drain". The authors conducted a survey on the current status of social mobility of high-quality S&T human resources in two national universities of Vietnam: Vietnam National University, Hanoi and Vietnam National University, Ho Chi Minh City in order to recognize the highlights and trends of this phenomenon. From that, the authors set out a number of policy suggestions to minimize the negative impacts from social mobility and to improve the efficiency of using high-quality S&T human resources in Vietnam universities today.
