Miss Janny gave the best pieces of advice to SIU freshmen that they should choose to develop their “one skill for all�?and have the right direction from the beginning to enter the race quickly.

On the same page as Miss Janny, Mr. Nguyen Van Diep, Project Director of TMA Technology Group, suggested the current technology trends. Mr Diep also introduced TMA Innovation Park in the Creative Valley of Quy Nhon, which aims to become the technology center contributing to the scientific, technical, and socio-economic development of the Central Highlands.

“Currently, the project focuses on investing in data development, which will be a big chance for students in Computer Science, especially those specializing in BigData�? Mr Diep shared in a statement.

At the 3rd station, Mr Vu Thanh Tuan, head of the recruitment office of FPT Software, revealed that only about 30% of CVs pass the recruitment process at Fsoft, while the HR positions often do not meet the KPI requirements. Looking towards 2030, the Fsoft workforce is expected to reach 110,000 employees, about 3.5 times the current number of 30,000 employees.

Mr Tuan believed that stepping into the technology is not difficult, and what freshmen need to do is early orientation, and focusing on their concentration and language proficiency.

Mr. Le Ngoc Hieu, Director of Bang Huu Technical Service Trading Limited Liability Company, shared his fortunate experience in participating in digital transformation projects in Singapore and Malaysia. According to Mr. Hieu, projects on the cloud services platform are currently a dominant trend. Companies like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Alibaba, Oracle, etc., provide valuable international certification courses in this field.

“These certifications, combined with foundational knowledge acquired from university education, will be a significant advantage for job applications,” affirmed Mr. Hieu.

At the 5th station, Mr. Doan Vu Trung, Sales Manager of BRAVO Software Joint Stock Company, introduced the direction of Generative AI – the “new force” in the labor market. Many subgroups of Generative AI are being applied in various enterprises, opening up new possibilities.

Representative of BRAVO Software Joint Stock Company said that the domestic market is still promising and many enterprises need support for digital transformation.

Many freshmen expressed their concerns about the global wave of layoffs in BigTech companies and the saturation of IT in the Western market.

However, the guests provided reasonable explanations for this wave and emphasized that a “standard” candidate – someone who is always ready to learn and adapt to new circumstances – is the key to seizing career opportunities.

Associate Professor Dr. Tran Cong Hung, Head of the School of Engineering and Computer Science, emphasized the innovation aspect of the curriculum at SIU: “After 2 years, starting from the third year, you can participate in part-time work on projects and be provided with conditions to balance work and study.”

In addition to equipping students with specialized knowledge and professional skills to enter the job market, the SIU Early Career Guidance program also focuses on accompanying and supporting students in pursuing international certification courses from top-notch universities around the world.

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Tran Minh Quang and Ms. Nguyen Thi Ty proposed solutions, and suggestions to improve the Utraffic application in the group’s research.

UTraffic (UTraffic: Urban Traffic Estimation System) is a system that forecasts urban traffic conditions by leveraging the power of Industry 4.0 technology and community data to address core issues that have not been effectively resolved by existing solutions, contributing to reduce traffic congestion and improve safety and convenience for participants.
Presenting on the topic “Building Smart Video Analytics Applications with NVIDIA DeepStream SDK,” Dr. Vo Duc Khanh, a senior expert from the technology corporation NVIDIA Japan, provided solutions for AI applications in smart video analytics, proposing various solutions in diverse fields.

Dr. Vo Duc Khanh brought a lot of new and useful information regarding Artificial Intelligence applications worldwide.

During the conference, Dr. Vo Duc Khanh stated that technology companies are in a race to improve and upgrade hardware. However, if they only focus on hardware without delivering effectiveness for users, it will not promote the development of technology market. “The winner is the one who provides the best experience for users�? affirmed Dr. Vo Duc Khanh.
Dr. Dao Van Tuyet (Water Resources University) introduced new discoveries about the breakthrough nature of AI in image retrieval through the topic “Combining Ranking Results of Multiple EMRs in Content-based Image Retrieval�?
This is a system that allows searching visual content such as images, gif…using text-based queries. This search method is increasingly applied in various fields and creates new advancements.

Dr. Dao Van Tuyet �?Water Resources University presented the topic: “Combining Ranking Results of Multiple EMRs in Content-based Image Retrieval.”

It can be seen that the conference “Innovations and Artificial Intelligence�?is a forum for researchers, lecturers, students, and postgraduate students to exchange their research results, knowledge and discuss the latest technologies and applications of artificial intelligence.
With a direction in liberating education and promoting lifelong learning abilities, SIU provides students not only with a solid knowledge system but also with frequent experiences in research laboratories and internships at leading technology companies through practical projects, AI applications in economics, politics, education, healthcare, agriculture, tourism, etc.
In particular, SIU has pioneered the establishment of an AI center (SIU AI Lab) equipped with modern facilities such as AI Servers and imported robots from advanced technology companies like NVIDIA, Lambda, PAL Robotics, serving the training of high-quality human resources in the field of technology.To keep up with the development trends of society, SIU focuses on investing in facilities, along with a team of leading experts and highly qualified lecturers in the field of computer science. At the same time, SIU expands international and enterprise partnerships to provide high-quality human resources to major technology corporations in Vietnam and internationally.

Here are some highlighted images from the conference:

SIU Open Day is an annual event held by The Saigon International University in order for parents and students to experience the international learning environment of the university.

Nguyen Duc Huan (a student of Le Hong Phong High School) said: “After participating in a series of activities at SIU Open Day, I think this is a great school for everything. The facilities and the learning environment are very good here”.

Attending SIU Open Day with her students, Ms Pho Thi Huyen �?Vice Principal of Giong Ong To High School said: “The Saigon International University is probably a choice of our students. The school fee is not so high. In addition to its favourable location, the school has an English learning environment and diversified majors for students to choose. I am extremely impressed with the school facilities�?

SIU has advantages of facilities, learning environment and research gaining international standard. Besides, parents and students are convinced by the dynamic professional international learning environment. Currently, the school has 3 main faculties: Business Administration (including Business Administration, Foreign Trade, Tourism Management, Marketing), Computer Science and English Language.

“Memories�?is the name of the project required to complete the course of Human Resource Management. This project was conceptualized and carried out at Fleming Campus by Course 6 students on the 20th of November. This project included a special art program depicting student life. Not only did the students perform on stage but they also organized the entire event themselves.

The program’s theme revolves around the central message, “Celebrating Memories�? which the students conveyed through a diverse performance repertoire that includes drama, singing, dancing, magic and concert that lasted for 2 hours. With a combination of elaborate stage production and natural talents, the students made the audience laugh and cry with perfomances that elicit memories of love that bonds countrymen, families and friends. The show also highlighted the special relationship between teachers and students as they celebrate Vietnamese Teachers’ Day on the 20th of November.

If the stage is where students flourish with artistic inspiration, behind the scenes, each member becomes an important link in the crew. They worked like professionals; they cooperated and coordinated with each other in overseeing the program. Pham Doan An Tam, a Foreign Trade major said: “Each member has a specific contribution to the project based on his strengths. For instance, I have experience on stage design, so I am in charge of that. Other students took the role of MC, photographer, performer, sound technician, IT, etc. We divided the work fairly equally to all members, jointly handling difficulties and solving problems that arise in the implementation process. This helped us bond with each other and learned many valuable things along the way.

Talking about this practical examination, Mr. Nguyen Van My said, “This is one of the methods that increases practical experience. It gives students an opportunity to express themselves and discover their potential through hands-on experience. By participating in this project, students are able to learn a variety of important skills related to personnel work such as event organization, human resource management, leadership, communication and cooperation.�?/p>

Student-centered learning, wherein the teacher only acts as a guide and facilitator, is a modern teaching method that has been applied at SIU to promote and produce positive, creative and active students. As a result, this method has formed a comfortable, fascinating and energetic learning environment that fits with the current modern academic trends in leading universities around the world.

Let’s take a look at some of the remarkable moments in the event:

5 interviews and the memorable breakthough

Being instinctively passionate about designing and developing games for a long time, since the beginning of the university year, Tran Minh Nguyen has spent time researching for his future career. The French Gameloft company was his first objective on his way to fulfill his dream �?to become a professional game developer.

For those who love technology, the term Gameloft is not a strange one. Gameloft, a top company publishing mobile phone games in the world, is a familiar name to technology lovers. This company has branches in more than 80 countries, including Vietnam. The worldwide working environment at Gameloft attracts a large number of young people wishing to have a job opportunity. Not the exceptional, Tran Minh Nguyen is among those. After many times of not giving up on sending application forms to the company, on a nice sunny day, he got his changes at last. After taking interviews by email twice, face-to-face interviews thrice and training for two months, the young guy, born in 1996, succeed, and officially became the youngest employee of the French Gameloft company.

On every Friday night and on weekends, when his friends spend time relaxing and entertaining themselves after learning very hard on weekdays, he turns to his beloved part time job. Up to now, Minh Nguyen is still part of Gameloft company and has worked there for a year.

Learn and Practice

Many people learning about Nguyen’s story wonder where he got such rich knowledge and incredibly practical experience to get a job from one of the most famous technology companies in Vietnam. In fact, his first lessons at The Saigon International University gave the young student more than what he had expected.

His basic knowledge and fundamental skills gained from the computer science course at The Saigon International University actually helped him take the initiative to familiarize himself with his current working environment. If you have a chance to visit his class, you will easily realize that, in SIU learning environment, lecturers do not only give students useful information but also teach them how to examine, analyze what they learn by themselves as well as how to figure out the lessons by group discussions. Due to those effective teaching methods, Minh Nguyen understands everything and can easily apply what he has learnt to his job in the company. He says “I feel like I’m lucky to have a chance to actually make use of what I have learnt at my university to a real life job; on the other hand, the experience I’ve got from working in this company really helps me easily picture and comprehend the lessons at university.

Although learning and part-time working are time-consuming, almost lead to a full time schedule every day, the young man still enthusiastically participates in some extracurricular activities at SIU so as to enrich his skills and life experience. Nguyen says: “When taking part in activities, I have got opportunities to meet many teachers and friends. In many events, I have a chance to experience and improve my communication skills effectively. For me, success stems from passion, determination and especially your experience with chances and new things around us.�?/p>
