Scientific research workshop PFIEV 2020-2021

In the framework of promoting the inherent scientific research achievements of PFIEV teachers and students over the last few years, the Board of High-Qualified Engineers organized "Student Scientific Research Seminar PFIEV 2020-2021" under the consent of the BODs. The seminar aims to deepen and further improve the quality of student research, equip students with scientific research methodology, methods of seeking research materials, tools and ways to publish the scientific article.

Attending the seminar, there were Dr. Tong Ngoc Tu - Head of Management and Training Department of High-qualified Engineers (PFIEV); Dr. Le Ba Danh - Deputy Head of Science and Technology Department; Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Hung Phong - Vice Dean of Graduate School of Education; Dr. Nguyen Duc Manh - Head of PFIEV Hydrotechnical Engineering; Dr. Nguyen Ngoc Lam - Vice Dean of Faculty of Building Materials, Head of PFIEV Building Materials Department; Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Van Tuan - Senior Lecturer of Faculty of Building Materials; Dr. Nguyen Trong Lam - Head of Building Materials Technology Department, Faculty of Building Materials; Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Quang Minh - Senior Lecturer at Faculty of Architecture and Planning; teachers of high-quality engineer Management and Training Department and students of PFIEV.

Students of the Management and Training Board of high-qualified Engineers are known for their great strength in scientific research. In the academic year 2020-2021, the Board received 21 scientific research topics completed by 67 students, not to mention the basic and general topics. If considering only specialized topics, the number of registered scientific researches of High-qualified Engineer students ranks 3rd among the Faculty/Training Boards.

To encourage the student scientific research movement, the Board of Management and Training of high-qualified engineers has rewarded 3 Scientific Research Groups with high achievements in the academic year 2019-2020 and announced the reward fund of the Board for Science Research students in 2020-2021 as 15 million VND. This amount is deducted from the PFIEV Alumni Scholarship Fund of Civil Engineering University.

03 groups of students were awarded including:

  • 01 First Prize: Nguyen Thi Ngoc Bich - 61KSĐT; Do Xuan Huy - 61KSGT; Nguyen Huu Thang - 61KSGT; Le Van Thanh - 61KSGT.
  • 02 second prizes: Group of Phan Xuan Truong - 62CLC1; Dinh Trong Hoang - 62CLC2; Nguyen Hoang Than - 62CLC2; Do Van Quyen - 62CLC1 and Group of Vu Thi Phuong Lan - 62CLC1; Le Thanh Tung - 62CLC2; Nguyen Thai Duong - 62CLC1; Pham Duc Nhat - 62CLC1.

Dr. Le Ba Danh and Dr. Tong Ngoc Tu presents the awards of the KSCLC Committee and the CSV PFIEV Liaison Committee to the students with the best scientific research achievements in the academic year 2019-2020

Dr. Tong Ngoc Tu announced the reward fund of the KSCLC Committee for student research activities in the academic year 2020-2021

The program was followed by presentations of experts:

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Quang Minh presented his thesis “Phương pháp luận về nghiên cứu khoa học trong đó nhấn mạnh những phương pháp thích hợp cho đối tượng sinh viên” (Methodology of scientific research, which emphasizes appropriate methods for students"). Mr. Minh gives typical examples of scientific research topics for 04 majors of PFIEV training and applicable methodologies, thereby seeing the specific characteristics of methods applied to each major.

Dr. Nguyen Ngoc Lam presented his thesis "Method of writing scientific articles". Mr. Lam presented the structure of a scientific paper, including the steps of article selection, article classification, article structure and how to publish scientific articles. He emphasized that scientific research topics must-have new research elements, do not carry out stereotypical research when someone has already examined it. 

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Van Tuan presented his thesis "Methods to find sources of documents for research and tools to support scientific research". This is a seemingly simple but very important job, it makes the research process more convenient, reduces wasted time when searching inefficiently and helps ensure the progress of scientific research. Mr. Tuan introduced document search tools (libraries, websites with open-source documents, etc) and research support tools (Matlab modeling tools, advanced office tools, etc).

Following the presentations, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Hung Phong shared with students about scientific research at Master's and Doctoral levels, especially the advantages of Engineers who graduated from the PFIEV Training Program of High-quality Engineers direct admission to the doctorate level or Master's degree transfer (study 06 credits and do Master's thesis). The Faculty of Higher Education always assists PFIEV Engineers in further study at the Faculty.

The seminar ended with great success. Students are equipped with considerable knowledge of scientific research methodology, writing procedure and publishment. The Board pin high hope that students with the creativity and research ability of PFIEV will have successful scientific research results in the 2020-2021 school year.
