At the end of September 2016, according to the cooperation agreement signed between Vinh University of Technology and Education and Tongmyong University, Korea, 9 students from various majors of the school went to Korea to study under the student exchange program. This program is mainly for students in their first and second years.

By participating in the program, students only spend about 130 million VND (including tuition, accommodation, insurance, and meals) for 6 months (saving about 50 million VND compared to other study abroad programs). After the initial period when students have stabilized and become familiar with the new learning environment, the Korean university will introduce jobs to them with an income of 800 - 1,000 USD/month.

Therefore, students can rest assured to both study and work to cover living expenses. If their academic performance is good, students will also receive scholarships from the school. After graduating, they can stay and work long-term, with high income.

Along with Tongmyong University, Vinh University of Technology Education also offers 10 full scholarships each year to excellent students who are good at foreign languages ​​to study for 1 year at Korea University of Technology Education.

Here, in addition to covering all tuition and living expenses, students also receive a monthly stipend of 200 USD.

Nguyen Dai Nhan, a student of K6, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, was also one of the students who studied at the Korea University of Technical Education under the student exchange program. After returning home, Nhan and 4 other students from the school (who went to Korea with Nhan) created a 3D printer. This is a type of machine that does not exist in Nghe An, but Nhan had seen it at a Korean science and technology exhibition.

From his interest, Nhan learned more, found the technology interesting, highly practical, so he started to invent. This work was then displayed at the Nghe An Science and Technology Exhibition and was highly appreciated. Along with this success, with well-trained professional skills, fluent foreign language and experience working abroad, after graduating, Nhan was invited by many foreign companies, and currently he has a stable job with a high salary in Ho Chi Minh City.

Nhan shared: “In terms of basic knowledge, domestic universities have provided quite a lot. But if there is an opportunity to do an internship abroad, students should boldly register because it will be a very valuable experience, helping them to approach modern industry and professional working style.”

Students of Vinh University of Technical Education participated in the 2016 Robocon Creativity Contest "Contributing Stones to Build Truong Sa".

In parallel with the student exchange program, Vinh University of Technical Education is also continuing to sign student exchange programs with many universities and colleges in Korea and Japan to meet the study and job search aspirations of students under the engineer VISA program.

This program is for all graduates of the school. When they arrive in Japan or Korea, they will study a foreign language that meets Q2 standards and the school will coordinate with them to transfer their engineer VISA.

Previously, to help students gain more experience, Vinh University of Technical Education also had many innovations in training. Regarding foreign languages, in addition to organizing English teaching according to the main curriculum, the school also has an enhanced English program, the main purpose of which is to support students in specialized English, helping them improve their listening and speaking skills.

Through these programs, students of the school are also motivated to strive better in their studies, creating an exciting and healthy competitive atmosphere.

More than anyone else, students themselves understand that, thanks to participating in a study abroad program and having access to advanced education, it not only helps improve soft skills but also creates an advantage in applying for recruitment at large corporations and companies in Korea, Japan and the world.

Training in the direction of applied professions is also the main goal of Vinh University of Technical Education. In which, focusing on training people with both theoretical knowledge and practical ability to serve the economic development of the province, region and the whole country.

Reality also shows that over the years, thanks to closely following the principles and goals, constantly innovating the content of the training program, focusing on practical skills and closely following the requirements of human resources, the training results have been very positive.

According to a survey from 2012 to 2016, 80% of graduates have jobs. Of these, thousands of students have stable jobs with starting salaries of 6 - 8 million VND/month through cooperation between the school and businesses.

At this time, there are about 1,500 students of the school working at Formosa Industrial Park, with income from 7,000,000 VND or more.

In addition, Vinh University of Technical Education also cooperates with corporations, companies, and factories in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Thanh Hoa, Bac Ninh, and Da Nang to introduce students to internships and jobs after graduation.

In addition, the school is cooperating with companies such as SOLAVICO, SONA and some other companies to introduce graduates from the school to work abroad.

Talking to us, teacher Le Thai Son - Head of the Student Support Center also said: Currently, there are still many opportunities for students. The important thing is that they must prepare themselves in foreign languages, skills, etc. so that when the opportunity comes, they can grasp it and be determined to strive and train to become high-quality human resources.

The above results are also a good sign for students planning to study at Vinh University of Technology and Education.

From here, students not only build a solid knowledge foundation but also give them opportunities to have jobs, stable income and keep up with the integration trend of the region and the world.
