Every year, Doctors and Masters are required to present their scientific reports. In 2015, there were over 90 school-level scientific reports, 3 Ministry-level experiment manufacturing reports/projects, over 40 reports on the research of designing self-made teaching models used for teaching and managing software.
The school invests about 15 – 25 billion VND each year on cutting-edge equipment and machines. Until now, a few standard modern laboratories have been set up such as: CAD-CAM-CNC lab, milling and turning machines, PLC programming control technical lab, automation lab with pneumatic and hydraulic equipment, mechatronics equipment lab, CNC wire-cutting machining and electric lightning machining lab…
Scientific researching activities of students are: annual robot competitions, funnyLED, electrical knowledge seeking… which are for the purpose of raising the awareness of exchanging experience and creativity among students.
International cooperation:
During HEEAP program (Higher Education Engineering Program), there had been 78 lecturers training at Arizona State University (USA) from 2011 to 2017.
VULII project (Vocational and University Leadership and Innovation Institute) is a program aimed at developing leadership ability for school members of HEEAP program. The project provides with quarterly training courses for the school’s managing board (leaders, head and deputy head of office, faculty, department). The project also organized mock visits according to ABET requirements for 4 faculties: Electrical-Electronics, Mechanical Engineering, Automation and Mechatronics.
