On December 18, Hanoi University of Science and Technology (HUST) launched Vietnam's first specialized engineering program in Digital Automotive Engineering, aiming to train engineers highly skilled in automotive software development and automotive mechanical design, simulation, and testing.

Speaking at the program launching ceremony, Dr. Ngo Lam Trung, Deputy Head of the Faculty of Computer Engineering, School of Information and Communications Technology, emphasized the need for a specialized engineering program due to the rapid growth of the automotive software industry. Software-defined vehicles (SDVs) are becoming mainstream, with the market predicted to grow from $213.5 billion in 2024 to $1.2 trillion by 2030, led by Asia-Pacific. Additionally, the automotive software market is expanding at an annual rate of 5.5-7%. To meet the growing demands of both domestic and international businesses, bachelor’s graduates require advanced training.

Developed by the School of Mechanical Engineering in collaboration with the School of Information and Communications Technology, the program aims to produce engineers highly skilled in automotive software development and automotive mechanical design, simulation, and testing. Application is open to bachelor’s graduates in related fields such as Automotive Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Automation Control Engineering, Computer Science, Data Science, Information Technology, etc.

Students can choose between two tracks: Software development for modern vehicles (e.g., AUTOSAR, embedded systems, ADAS, UI/UX) and mechanical design and simulation (e.g., CAD/CAE, digital testing). They will undertake a 6-month internship with industry partners such as FPT Automotives, VinFast, Nissan, etc and complete a graduation project.

At the ceremony, the School of Information and Communication Technology, the School of Mechanical Engineering, and FPT Corporation signed a collaboration agreement to advance education and research in digital automotive engineering. FPT Corporation also sponsored a state-of-the-art automotive technology lab to support HUST.
