Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HUTECH) has been accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) in the fields of computational science and technique.
The information was unveiled by Associate Professor Dr. Vu Dinh Thanh on November 4, who is also the Principal of HUTECH, at a ceremony in HCM City.
Thanh said the achievement is one of the most meaningful milestones in the university’s 57 year history.
US Consul General in HCM City Rena Bitter in turn said she was very proud of the HUTECH’s achievements.
The achievement stems from the cooperative efforts of Vietnam Government, American universities and businesses such as Boeing, Intel, IBM, and Siemens, Bitter said, adding that it also provides graduates with necessary working skills and contributes to the nation’s socio-economic development.
