EDUCATION PROGRAM
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY – COMPUTER SCIENCE
Our undergraduate programs in Computer Science are among the traditional ones at Hanoi University of Science and Technology and one of the most prestigious within the country that provides attractively promising careers among IT-related disciplines. We deliver high-quality graduates to two main categories i.e., Software Engineering and Information Systems, who can be software engineers, information systems developers, IT solutions designers, and development specialists. Graduates from our programs possess core professional knowledge and can apply in-depth knowledge to analyze, design, build and develop software solutions, as well as intelligent information systems.
SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES AND STUDY SUPPORT
Scholarships and financial aids
Besides scholarships and financial support from Hanoi University of Science and Technology, students majoring in Computer Science with good academic results but having financial difficulties could receive support from the alumni scholarship fund, technology associations, and big corporations like Microsoft, Samsung, Vingroup, VNPT, etc.
In addition, students with good teaching and research skills can join as teaching assistants (support lecturers in teaching) or research assistants (assist lecturers in doing research at laboratories of the School) with a salary of up to 4 million/month. Students also receive an official certificate from the School for these activities; hence they have a favorable condition to apply for a scholarship in the future. The SOICT is the only unit implementing these programs at HUST university.
In the integrated bachelor’s-master’s program, students could receive tuition waiver scholarships from the university and scholarships to support postgraduate training of domestic and foreign corporations.
Student exchange scholarships and internship opportunities
Students could participate in study exchange, research exchange, or transfer programs at prestigious partner schools such as Regensburg University of Applied Sciences (Germany), Nanyang Technological University (Singapore), The National University of Singapore (Singapore), Uppsala University (Sweden), Aizu University (Japan), Tokyo University of Technology (Japan), etc.
In addition, during the study program, students of SOICT can practice and experience the real working environment at more than 200 partner companies.
Finally, the Alumni network of SOICT in Silicon Valley also regularly organizes support and consulting activities to help students could discuss and practice at the world’s leading technology corporations.
