Building an International Cooperation from Le Quy Don Technical University

 
Xuan Nam Tran, Dr. Eng.
Assc. Professor, Assc. Dean, Faculty of Radio-Electronics, Le Quy Don Technical University, Vietnam Members, IEICE, IEEE, REV
 
@Hello, all of IEICE Global Plaza general readers! I am one of regular members of IEICE, currently serving Le Quy Don Technical University (LQDTU) in Vietnam, as Associate Dean of Faculty of Radio-Electronics. It is my great pleasure to introduce the university to you through this corner and have the policy and academic activities of the university toward a global linkage understood by as many readers as possible. I hope IEICE will promote initiatives of international collaboration with us in Asia Pacific region.

Summary of Le Quy Don Technical University
@LQDTU has its history dated back to 1966 when the Vietnamese government issued the decision to establish the Second Branch of the Hanoi Polytechnique, now Ha Noi University of Science and Technology. It commenced the first course later in October 1966 in Ha Noi. In 1968, the government decided to change the name of the Second Branch of the Hanoi Polytechnique to the Military Technical University. The university was later reformed and named as the Military Technical Academy. The official establishment of the university was made in 1991 when the government decided to build LQDTU based on the Military Technical Academy with the mission to provide human resource education for both the military and civil sectors. The university is now one of the largest technical universities in Vietnam offering the multidisciplinary undergraduate and postgraduate education integrating engineering and management. The number of educational programs includes 33 programs for bachelor, 17 programs for master and 13 programs for doctorate studies. In 2008, the university was recognized as one of the 15 national key universities of Vietnam.
(See the details at http://www.lqdtu.edu.vn)

International Cooperation in Research and Education
Looking over the long history of the university, it has established its closed cooperation with Russian leading technical universities such as Bauman Moscow State Technical University and Moscow Aviation Institute. The bilateral cooperation with these universities has opened up joint undergraduate education programs in which students could study the first half period in Vietnam and later transferred to Russia to complete their courses. The cooperation also has allowed the opportunity for exchanging professors, PhD students, study curriculum as well as textbooks and references. Besides Russia, the university is building up its relationship with Asian partner universities now. The university has signed the memorandum of understanding (MOU) with each of Tsinghua University and Nanjing University of Science and Technology, China. Many graduates from the university have joined these two universities for their postgraduate studies

Leadership in Global Linkage
@At LQDTU, the Faculty of Radio-Electronics is among the two oldest faculties which have been originally established since 1966. It consists of 7 departments, one practice workshop, and a Center of Electronics and Telecommunications for advanced technology development and transfer. The faculty attracts an increasing number of PhD and postgraduate students to study there. Most of PhD students are teaching staffs from national technical universities and colleges such as Thai Nguyen University, Nam Dinh University, Hung Yen University, and University of Mining Geology. The master students, whereas, mostly come from the leading telecommunication service providers such as Viettel Group, Vietnam Post and Telecommunication Group (VNPT), Vietnam Television, as well as research institutions. Apart from education, the faculty is chairing leading research projects funded by the National Key Science and Technology Programs and The National Foundation for Technology and Development in the area of wireless communications, antenna and electronic design, and aviation navigation. In recent years, the faculty members have published a large number of technical papers in IEEE and IEICE journals and international conferences. The faculty is now looking forward to further cooperation with partners from Japanese and Asian universities for joint research project and education programs.

IEICE Society Conference 2012 Comes up!
IEICE-TFIPP
 
@In Fall season every year, IEICE organizes the annual Society Conference to provide a forum where members can present results of their research activities and exchange views every Society. This year, the 2012 IEICE Society Conference will be held at the University of Toyama in Toyama City, on September 11-14, 2012. In the Conference, three Societies of Engineering Sciences Society (ESS), Communications Society (CS) and Electronics Society (ES) join it, while Information and System Society (ISS) and Human Communication Engineering Group (HCG) will organize another 11th event called Forum on Information Technology 2012 (FIT2012) in collaboration with Information Processing Society of Japan (IPSJ) at Hosei University Koganei Campus in Tokyo, on September 4-6, 2012.
@The planning of special Strategic Sessions has been proposed and organized by only General Conference Board, Societies and Technical Committees until the 2010 IEICE General Conference, and then extended and entrusted to general members so that special Strategic Sessions could be proposed in various fields beyond the specific research topics of each Technical Committee to promote new research communities. The 2012 IEICE Society Conference has welcomed proposals by general members through the open call function on the Web for the Session planning as well. Additionally, the registration fee for students who will present speech in Conference Sessions or join Sessions for their auditory purpose is drastically reduced as shown in Table 1 so that they can join the Conference at ease. Any speaker does not need to pay for the participation as an auditor. See the details of registration fee at: https://www.gakkai-web.net/gakkai/ieice/common/price_new.html The Conference also will include the conferment ceremony and social party for new IEICE Fellows. The detailed program and venue layout for the Conference will be available at http://www.toyoag.co.jp/ieice/E_S_top/e_s_top.html.
