• Educational collaboration: Expand job opportunities for students excelling in IT.

Comment from Dr. Nguyen Anh Tuan - President of HUFLIT university

"We are honored to sign this MoU with transcosmos technology Vietnam(TTV) and look forward to strengthening our partnership and creating a new collaborative framework together.
I have long held a deep respect and strong affinity for Japan and its culture, and have been striving to promote various types of exchanges and create opportunities for collaboration between Japan and Vietnam. Going beyond internal educational activities, HUFLIT actively supports students in building a stable career after graduation through corporate visits and internship programs. For example, we are focusing on organizing cultural exchange events and student exchange programs between the two countries, supporting career development, and increasing employment opportunities.
Mr. Kamada from TTV said: "Today, we live in an age where the evolution of AI enables us to gain superficial outputs instantly. However, in this changing landscape, I strongly believe that the value of communication, creative ideas, and fundamental learning - things that only humans can achieve - has become more critical than ever." I am profoundly impressed and reassured because these values align perfectly with HUFLIT's educational policies.
Building on these shared values, we aim to deepen our collaborative relationship and continue sharing knowledge and activities going forward. I am confident that this partnership will be fruitful for both parties, and we look forward to working together with you."

Comment from Mr. Daisuke Kamada - CEO at transcosmos technology Vietnam

"We are sincerely grateful for signing this memorandum of cooperation between HUFLIT and transcosmos technology Vietnam.
Through its innovative curriculum that integrates foreign language education and information technology, HUFLIT produces talent equipped with both global perspectives and advanced IT skills. I would like to take this moment to express my deep respect for the university's educational vision and achievements. HUFLIT prioritizes collaboration with companies and providing students with practical learning experiences, which perfectly aligns with our future direction.
Today, we live in an age where the evolution of AI enables us to gain superficial outputs instantly. However, in this changing landscape, I strongly believe that the value of communication, creative ideas, and fundamental learning - things that only humans can achieve - has become more critical than ever. Some raise concerns that AI will take away educational opportunities. We will adapt to this changing landscape and leverage AI while promoting education that fosters capabilities only humans possess - together with HUFLIT.
This MoU is not merely for sharing knowledge; it is a first step toward developing next-generation talent who possess both practical skills and creative ideas. We will fully support students be work-ready by proactively sharing the latest technologies and know-how we have accumulated in real-world workplaces.
We sincerely hope that this collaboration will shape the future of students and contribute to the further development of Vietnam's IT industry. Lastly, I would like to express our sincere gratitude to all parties at HUFLIT for your effort and support. We hope to build a strong and lasting relationship with you. Thank you very much again."
