The content of the project proposes to develop HUST into a modern university, among the leading universities in Asia in the field of engineering and technology. It is an excellent centre in training, talent development, research and innovation, playing a leading role in the Vietnamese higher education system in the fields serving the development of technology and strategic industries (including the fields of artificial intelligence, cyber security, blockchain, electronics, semiconductors, chips, digital technology, robotics and automation, energy, environment, biotechnology, advanced materials, etc.) and actively contributing to the socio-economic development of the capital Hanoi, the Red River Delta and the whole country.
By 2030, the HUST will strive to reach the targets: the proportion of lecturers with doctoral degrees reaches 85%; at least 25% of the total number of training programs taught in English; train at least 8,000 engineers, masters, and doctors in fields serving the technology and strategic industries development. On average each lecturer has 1.6 scientific announcements peryear in the Web of Science, SCOPUS categories and at least six products successfully commercialised from the results of scientific research and technology development.
HUST will be the centre of the innovation network of Hanoi Capital and the Red River Delta region, incubating at least 10 spin-offs and start-ups that have successfully raised capital with a total value of over 10 million USD.
The decision clearly states that orientation by 2035, HUST will be the leading research and innovation centre of the country in science, engineering and technology, ranked in the top 100-150 in Asia according to prestigious international rankings.
By 2045, HUST will become a higher education facility in the top 100 universities in Asia in the field of engineering and technology, with a reputation in the region and the world for science, technology and innovation. This plays an important role in promoting the development of Vietnam's higher education system and making important contributions to the socio-economic development of Hanoi Capital, the Red River Delta and the whole country.
One of the tasks and solutions outlined in the Decision is to expand HUST’s space and modernise its technical infrastructure and facilities to regional standards.
Specifically, the second facility of HUST in Hung Yen Province will be invested to build synchronously, and expand the area and space for the development.
Facilities and laboratories at HUST’s headquarters in Hanoi City will be modernised and upgraded to serve training and research in key fields of engineering and technology.
HUST’s Innovation Centre will be invested in building and developing it into the Innovation Centre of Hanoi Capital.
