Environmental Engineering Technology

Overview

The Environmental Engineering Technology program trains university-level professionals in environmental technology and occupational health and safety. Graduates are equipped to work in multinational corporations, enterprises, and scientific/technological organizations domestically and internationally. They contribute their expertise to activities such as developing corporate policies, creating sustainable production and consumption solutions, optimizing resource utilization, managing and protecting the environment, pollution control, and health and safety management.
The training program is structured into two specializations: (1) Environment and Sustainable Development; (2) Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE)
These specializations align with current trends and significantly contribute to the sustainable development of society.

Highlights of the training program

Interdisciplinary Program

Environmental Engineering Technology is an interdisciplinary field that integrates knowledge of engineering, technology, and management to address contemporary environmental issues such as water, air, and soil pollution, as well as climate change.

Modern Curriculum

The curriculum is benchmarked against programs from Vietnam National Universities and international institutions. It emphasizes not only fundamental knowledge but also significant trends such as green economy, green growth, and sustainable development. With over 30% of the learning time spent at enterprises and experiential learning programs, the curriculum trains practical skills through projects, internships, and real-world activities. The program is designed flexibly to support accelerated learning, allowing students to graduate earlier than the standard timeframe.

Experienced Faculty

The program is taught by highly experienced and specialized faculty members who maintain strong connections with enterprises and government agencies.

Practical-Oriented Graduation Projects

Graduation projects enable students to apply theories, knowledge, and experience gained during their studies to enhance independent working skills, research methods, and professional practice.

Learning, Teaching & Assessment Methods

Learning Methods

Classroom learning, lectures, self-study, group work, presentations, project implementation, course assignments, essay writing, etc.

Teaching Methods

Experiential learning: Through delivered knowledge, students participate in practical classes in laboratories, practice rooms, enterprise site visits, real-world problem-solving activities, project implementation, internships, and graduation theses.

Assessment Methods

Evaluation through classroom activities, laboratory sessions, and practical work; assessment of presentation skills, teamwork, use of technology, and knowledge through tests; further evaluation via essays, presentations, debates, course assignments, site visit reports, internships, and graduation theses.
