Sinh viên UIT gặp gỡ UMC - “ông lớn” trong lĩnh vực bán dẫn
On the morning of April 22, 2025, the Department of Computer Engineering at the University of Information Technology (UIT), Vietnam National University – HCM, held a meeting with representatives from United Microelectronics Corporation (UMC), one of the global giants in the semiconductor industry.
Attending the meeting on behalf of UMC were Mr. Osbert Cheng, Vice President & Director of the UMC Division, and Ms. Mellon Chang, Head of Human Resources at UMC, along with other senior managers. Welcoming the UMC delegation, UIT’s Department of Computer Engineering was represented by Dr. Nguyễn Minh Sơn, Head of the Department of Computer Engineering, and Dr. Đoàn Duy, Deputy Head of the Department.
During the meeting, both sides engaged in in-depth discussions about potential collaboration in training and developing high-quality human resources for the semiconductor industry. The Department of Computer Engineering introduced an overview of UIT’s educational programs, particularly the fields closely related to integrated circuits, hardware design, and embedded systems – areas that are in high demand for skilled labor from the industry. In parallel, UMC representatives shared information about their organizational model, recruitment needs, and strategies for developing a team of young engineers.
In addition to the discussions with the department leadership, the UMC representatives also had the opportunity to meet and interact directly with UIT students through a specialized seminar held in Hall E. During the seminar, students learned more about UMC and the Model Division, one of the key technology units of the corporation. The seminar also provided valuable opportunities for students to ask questions, receive advice from experienced professionals in the semiconductor field, and explore internship opportunities and career development paths in an international work environment.
The meeting and seminar between the Department of Computer Engineering and UMC opened many practical opportunities for collaboration, bringing students closer to a professional work environment in the semiconductor industry. This marks an important milestone in UIT’s journey to train high-quality human resources, ready to integrate into the global workforce.
