Universities to employ Oracle software program

Vietnam’s education ministry recently signed an agreement with an international software corporation on applying advanced computer science into information technology teaching at a select group of universities.

Under the agreement signed on Tuesday, 25 universities will be able to access the technical curriculum and students can gain exposure to modern software as part of the Oracle Academy program developed by Oracle Corporation.

Students will also have opportunities to develop their business and technology skills, giving them an edge when entering the world labor force in the 21st century, said Ho Thanh Tung, general director of Oracle Vietnam and Indochina, at the signing ceremony in Hanoi.

The agreement was signed between the Administration for Information Technology under the Ministry of Education and Training and Oracle Vietnam Pte. Ltd. – a subsidiary of Oracle Corporation.

The universities participating in the program include Hanoi University of Technology, Da Nang University of Technology, and member schools of Vietnam National University-Hanoi and Vietnam National University-Ho Chi Minh City.

Oracle Corporation is one of the world’s leading software companies. The California-headquartered company specializes in developing and marketing enterprise software products.

Oracle Vietnam was established in 1995 in Hanoi and now has a representative office in HCMC.
