Hanoi

Twenty students and two professors from the School of Mechanical Engineering’s (SME) Shibaura Institute of Technology (SIT), flew to Hanoi from Japan in late February to participate in a global project-based learning (PBL) collaboration with Hanoi University of Science and Technology (HUST) and SME. The challenge of the project was to design and create a vehicle that was able to store and use its own energy and was capable of running a distance of exactly five meters.

The Building University-Industry Learning and Development through Innovation and Technology (BUILD-IT) marked the completion of its first project year with a retrospective look at progress to date and a look forward to our upcoming initiatives and opportunities during the annual solutions council meeting, held on February 28, 2017 at the Intercontinental Hotel in Hanoi, Vietnam.
