ELECTRICAL AND COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY (ECE)

1. General introduction - learn about electrical and computer engineering

Bachelor of Electrical and Computer Engineering ECE (former name is Electrical Engineering and Information Technology) is a training program co-operated by Vietnamese-German University (VGU) with Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences, Germany...

Are you interested in understanding the structure and operation mechanism of electrical equipment in your home? Do you often think about the world of the future, the world of information technology with scientific ideas: How to bring about sustainable energy? Solution for safe and efficient traffic? Plan to increase production efficiency? New energy-saving solution for homes, offices? How to further improve home entertainment and home appliances? etc

If so then the Bachelor in Electrical and Computer Engineering is a perfect choice for you. Electrical engineers are not merely experts in the field of technology, they are also designers, manufacturers of information technology equipment and systems, research and development of medical equipment.

The VGU Computer and Electrical Engineering students learn skills related to the design of digital circuits and electronic engineering, electrical equipment, telecommunications and embedded systems, and public products. information technology is in high demand in the domestic and foreign industries. From semester 4, ECE students are chosen to study 1 of the following 3 majors:

  • Control Engineering - Automation (AT);

  • Energy and Electrical Engineering Technology (ET);

  • Information and Communication Technology (ICT).

In addition to lectures, students practice in laboratories with modern and complete equipment. Students are trained in soft skills and the ability to work in a multidisciplinary environment, which is the basis for successful implementation of joint projects in the future.

Detailed study program:

2. Admission method

Admission is carried out via the following modes:

  • Mode 1 (TestAS): based on an entrance examination (TestAS) and regularly carried out in May every year. The admission quota of Mode 1 is up to 70% of each study

  • program. Applicants could submit valid TestAS certificates appropriate to applied study programs to substitute for the VGU entrance examination.

  • Mode 2 (High school Transcript): Selection based on the high school results of those who will graduate from Vietnamese high schools in the admission year.

  • Mode 3 (Direct admission): Direct admission for applicants having excellent academic achievements including provincial/national prizes or participation in international high school competitions.

  • Mode 4 (International high school degrees/certificates): Selection formality for applicants having recognized international high school diplomas (IBD, AS/A-Level, IGCSE, WACE…) or certificates of international aptitude tests (SAT, TestAS…).

  • Mode 5 (High school Graduation Exam): Selection based on the high school results of those who will graduate from Vietnamese high schools following blocks: A00/A01; D01/D03/D05/D07; V00/V02.

3. Skills required for Electrical and Computer Engineering

This is a high-tech industry that requires students to have a solid background in mathematics, physics and logical thinking ability. Students also need to be careful, meticulous and value precision when working on complex equipment. The spirit of passion for information technology and problem solving skills is indispensable for future engineers.

4. Are you suitable for Electrical and Computer Engineering at VGU?

In order to choose a suitable career, out of competence, students need to consider whether their personalities and interests are suitable or not. Besides knowledge and the ability to compute scientific thinking, each specific option has its own requirements that learners should learn clearly to choose the right learning path for them.

If you are interested in physical phenomena and have a passion for electronic equipment and the ability to invent machines, then Electrical and Computer Engineering is the field of study for you. This field will also satisfy a passion for making robotic devices that can solve everyday problems with technology.
