Through the Higher Engineering Education Alliance Program (HEEAP), the Arizona State University Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering (ASU) and an expanding industry consortia are collaborating to transform and modernize top engineering and technical vocational universities in Vietnam.
HEEAP has trained more than 240 faculty members and lecturers from eight partner institutions across Vietnam.
26% of the faculty members trained by HEEAP at Arizona State University have been women.
The Vocational and University Leadership Innovation Institute (VULII) has trained more than 1,100 faculty leaders at dozens of events since 2012.
In 2014, Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology computer science and computer engineering programs achieved ABET accreditation—the first in Vietnam to do so.
Impact
Since 2010, HEEAP has trained 247 lecturers from eight partner institutions who, upon returning to Vietnam, are teaching and graduating work-ready students who possess the applied and technical communication skills required by multinational corporations. 65 of the 247 trained lecturers were women.
