Bosch, a leading global supplier of technologies and services, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Vietnamese-German University (VGU).
Vo Quang Hue, managing director of Bosch Vietnam said that the cooperation with VGU would be another milestone in the firm’s efforts to support the educational system in Vietnam and contribute to developing the local talent pool.
He stressed that their continuously growing business both in the country as well as across Asia requires highly qualified associates. This project, therefore, will help both VGU and Bosch to train people for the market’s needs and thus support graduates to find appropriate positions quickly.
The cooperation will focus on five areas including internships for students in bachelor and master programmes, promotion of company-related degree and thesis work, support for student visits to Bosch, research cooperation and sponsoring activities, both for VGU as well as for individual students.
The focus areas will give VGU students the opportunity to combine their theoretical knowledge with practical experience at a high-tech company with state-of-the-art facilities.
Students can join the company for internships and build up personal contacts within Bosch, potentially explore topics for a final thesis or cooperate with Bosch teams in specific research area.
Up to ten new Bachelor students per year in the area of mechanical engineering will be eligible for a scholarship. Each of them will be provided with an annual amount of US$1,000 for a four-year period. Scholarship holders will have the opportunity of joining Bosch upon graduation.
In Vietnam, Bosch already launched an important milestone activity for the educational system in 2013 by cooperating wil LILAMA2 Technical & Technology College in Dong Nai province. The Technical Industrial Apprenticeship programme (TGA) combines theoretical training at LILAMA2 with hands-on work experience at Bosch.
Furthermore, Bosch also supplied and partly sponsored educational equipment like mechatronics training systems, books and training materials for TGA as well as components of the Lean and Green Management Training Centre for VGU.
