Accelerating training of semiconductor human resources

This is a very attractive income. Meanwhile, one of the biggest challenges that the Vietnamese semiconductor industry in general and Ho Chi Minh City in particular is facing is a serious shortage of human resources. "This situation not only affects the ability to fill key positions, inherit and supplement the aging workforce and develop new technology products. In the long term, it can hinder the growth rate of the entire semiconductor industry and affect Vietnam's competitiveness" - Master Nguyen Anh Tuan commented.

Faced with the shortage of human resources, MSc. Nguyen Anh Tuan proposed that colleges and universities in Ho Chi Minh City in general and the University of Natural Sciences - VNU-HCM in particular increase the opening of training programs related to the field of semiconductor microchips such as: semiconductor technology, microchip design techniques... At the same time, the Ho Chi Minh City Semiconductor Microchip Technology Association will connect semiconductor microchip communities with schools, connect international enterprises to cooperate in training and research and production...

According to experts, the upgrading of Vietnam-US relations has opened up great opportunities for Vietnam’s semiconductor industry. Many enterprises have taken advantage of this cooperation to promote human resource training and cooperation.

Associate Professor, Dr. Vu Thi Hanh Thu, Faculty of Physics - Technical Physics, University of Science - VNU-HCM, said that the school will build a laboratory for semiconductor and nanophotonic technology in 2024.

As a pioneer in semiconductor microcircuiteducation and training, Professor Dang Luong Mo hopes that business organizations and schools will not only train skilled workers, but also orient them to become breakthrough development factors. "Schools need to encourage students to conduct many research projects and internship projects; help students understand correctly and more deeply about semiconductor microcircuits" - Professor Dang Luong Mo emphasized.

Speaking at the workshop "Current situation and solutions in human resource training and research and development in the field of semiconductor microcircuits in Vietnam with a vision to 2045", Associate Professor, Dr. Vu Thi Hanh Thu, Faculty of Physics - Technical Physics, University of Science - VNU-HCM, said that the school has planned to develop training for students in this field. Specifically, the school is developing a training program for semiconductor technology for the new school year; building a semiconductor and nanophotonics technology laboratory by 2024; strengthening cooperation and attracting highly qualified human resources graduating from abroad with the right expertise for training and research activities in the field of semiconductor technology.
