STUDENT ENROLMENTS

currently, FEt has a yearly-enrolment of around 90 undergraduates, 60 full-time and part-time masters & 10 phd students.

previously, we offered two other undergraduate programs: standard and honors. since the introduction of the international program in 2008, we discontinued offering the standard and honors programs in order to focus on developing the new international program, making a bold move in the development of the whole environment of FEt for advancing its activities in human resources, academic and research training, infrastructure upgrading, and international relations.

• the best students will receive scholarships as well as internships from the program partners/ contributors such as orange France telecoms, odon Vallet, University of Paris Sud 11, and VNU-UET. Since its first intake in 2006, the program has enrolled 60 students. the orange France telecoms has generously offered 8 internships at France telecom labs in France and 30 tuition-fee scholarships.

the masters program on information, sciences and technologies (ist) is a high quality masters program of the university paris sud 11, delocalized at the Vnu university of Engineering and technology (Vnu-uEt) in the cooperative framework of the puF (pôle universitaires Franais) project as the fruit of a long, close academic collaboration between two universities. the program emerged to offer students the chance to undertake a high-quality academic program from within Vietnam. the overlapping of digital communications, electronics and information technology provides an important multidisciplinary knowledge for students to get jobs in that area.
