Students majoring in Space Engineering – International University, Vietnam National University Ho Chi Minh City won the contest “Global Satellite Tracking Initiative”

Recently, a group of students majoring in Space Engineering (SE) including Nguyen Xuan (K17) and Le Dang Khoa (K19) participated and excellently won the award of the “Morning Morning” contest. Global Satellite Tracking Initiative” organized by the Space Generation Advisory Council.

This is a contest to help students who are passionate about research and discovery have the opportunity to set up satellite stations on the ground themselves, learn about Earth observation, satellite communication and other technologies. Other related topics. The product of the award is a kit for students to self-assemble to receive and process satellite signals.

A total of more than 200 teams from 60 countries (round 1) participated in the competition, but only 20 teams were selected to participate in the interview round (round 2), and in the end only 10 teams received prizes (round 3).

With the passion and skills gained during training, students of SE are gradually demonstrating their dynamism and capacity to international research events.

The Department of Space Engineering at International University, under Vietnam National University, Ho Chi Minh City, established in 2016, is the first 4-year training program for SE engineers in Vietnam. The major focuses on training engineers specializing in the application of satellite technology, including remote sensing technology, positioning technology, image processing and satellite signal, programming for mobile devices using GPS, analysis Big data analytics in remote sensing and related applications.

The industry has internship programs abroad to help students access modern laboratories around the world, hone practical skills and confidence in an international environment.
