Overview

Applications and intelligent transportation systems are continuously evolving, leading to changes in workforce requirements. The demand for technical talent calls for more versatile engineers, known as "intelligent transportation engineers," with integrated knowledge and skills in the fields of transportation engineering, mechanics and automotive, data science, and digital technology.


Transitioning to a more sustainable and technologically advanced society requires high flexibility to adapt to the unknown. Therefore, VGU has developed the new Bachelor’s program in Intelligent Transportation Engineering to train a new generation of engineers with skills that meet the demands of complex transportation systems and their relationships with areas such as safety, new technology, ethics, urban development, etc. They will be the workforce geared towards intelligent transportation solutions and contribute to sustainable transportation development in Vietnam and globally.
