Remarks by Dr. Nguyen Duc Hien – Dean of the Faculty of Computer Science

In his congratulatory remarks, Dr. Nguyen Duc Hien emphasized that the official recruitment of 21JIT students by a Japanese enterprise at the time of graduation clearly demonstrates the effectiveness of VKU’s educational orientation. The Japanese–Vietnamese bilingual program not only provides solid professional knowledge but also helps students develop a global mindset, communication skills, and the ability to work in multicultural environments, which are key factors for successful integration into the international labor market.

Sharing from Mr. Nguyen Trong Nghia – CEO of NiX Education

Representing the training partner, Mr. Nguyen Trong Nghia expressed his pride in witnessing the positive outcomes of the program. He affirmed that NiX Education will continue to work closely with VKU and Japanese enterprises to enhance training quality, expand internship and employment opportunities, and support Vietnamese students in meeting international professional standards.

After four years of implementation, the Japanese–Vietnamese Bilingual Software Engineering Program, jointly developed by VKU and NiX Education, has gradually proven its effectiveness through a close cooperation model between the university, enterprises, and the training partner. Notably, the first cohort of the program (21JIT) with 31 students has achieved impressive results: 9 students have been officially recruited by Japanese companies; 4 students are currently participating in long-term internships from 6 months to 1 year in Japan; and the remaining students are undertaking paid remote internships with Japanese enterprises while studying at VKU. These results not only reflect the practical effectiveness of the university–enterprise–training partner collaboration model, but also affirm the professional competence, foreign language proficiency, and ability to adapt to international working environments of VKU students, particularly in the Japanese labor market.
