Choosing information technology in the digital age

In the simplest terms, information technology is an industry that uses mainly computer and telecommunications systems, including computer hardware and software to convert, store, protect, process, transmit and collect information; effectively exploit high-tech resources and provide information processing solutions on demand.

In the context of digital transformation in all areas of life such as national security, health, education, administrative management, economics , finance, etc., the role of information technology is increasingly important in developing smart technology solutions to improve processes, optimize services and improve work efficiency.

Not stopping at traditional programming work, today's information technology industry opens up a diverse digital technology ecosystem to solve more multi-disciplinary and multi-field problems.

Choosing a modern university environment that focuses on application from the beginning will be a huge advantage for you to hone your project-based working ability, programming ability, algorithm writing, judgment skills and problem-solving skills - the requirements that make a good IT engineer.

This is also the way that information technology students at Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HUTECH) prepare for their careers.

Not limiting themselves to traditional lecture halls, students always take the opportunity to seek exposure to a series of challenges close to real work through professional playgrounds such as My First Website - learning how to design a website; Nurturing IT talents, HUTECH Code War - improving programming skills; HUTECH students with information security - trying their hand in the field of information security - safety; AI Challenges - cultivating knowledge in the field of artificial intelligence,...

Adding fuel to the fire for students in academic arenas are senior managers and experts from prestigious organizations and businesses such as Ho Chi Minh City Computer Association - HCA, HDBank, FPT Software HCM, iNET,... who have accompanied students in completing their projects, while opening up opportunities to realize their ideas, providing attractive scholarships, internships and jobs.
