Hanoi University of Industry established the School of Mechanical and Automotive Engineering, aiming to become a university by 2025.

On August 5, Hanoi University of Industry announced its decision to establish the School of Mechanical Engineering - Automobile, based on the merger of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and the Faculty of Automobile Technology. These are two faculties with a long history, and are key units in training, research and technology transfer.

This is also the first university-affiliated school of Mechanics and Automobiles in the country. Associate Professor Dr. Hoang Tien Dung, Head of the Faculty of Mechanics, was appointed as the principal of the school of Mechanics and Automobiles.

The majors of the School of Mechanical - Automobile Engineering include: Automotive Engineering Technology, Automotive Electronics Engineering Technology, Mechanical Engineering Technology, Mechatronic Engineering Technology, Industrial Systems Engineering, Mold Engineering Technology, Robotics and Artificial Intelligence, Mechanical Design and Industrial Design.

So far, Hanoi University of Industry has two member schools, including the School of Foreign Languages ​​- Tourism (established in December 2021) and the School of Mechanics - Automobiles. The goal by 2025 is to develop the school into Hanoi University of Industry with 3-5 affiliated schools.

Currently, the country has 6 universities: Hanoi National University, Ho Chi Minh City National University, Thai Nguyen University, Hue University, Da Nang University and Hanoi University of Technology.

According to the 2018 Law on Higher Education, universities train and research in many fields, these fields belong to one or several fields. Meanwhile, universities train and research in many fields, including many universities and member faculties. To become universities, schools need to ensure three conditions: be assessed by a legal accreditation organization to meet quality standards; have at least three schools and 10 doctoral training fields, the number of full-time students is over 15,000; and be approved by the direct management agency and investors.

Dr. Kieu Xuan Thuc, Principal of Hanoi University of Industry, said that developing into a university is an opportunity to innovate the structure and management system, focusing resources for effective development.

"Establishing schools within universities helps promote decentralization and delegation of power to each unit, promoting autonomy to innovate, improve the quality of training, scientific research, and develop staff and lecturers," said Mr. Thuc.

Hanoi University of Industry currently trains 32,000 students, among the leading schools in terms of training scale in the country. Each year, the school recruits over 7,000-7,500 university students.
