DTU partners with fifty universities worldwide, is a member of several important international organizations and has established relationships with many global companies operating in Vietnam. The close relationship with Carnegie Mellon University plays a vital role in improving the quality of IT education at DTU.
By sharing advanced international programs with Carnegie Mellon University, DTU students are taught using project-based learning methods and “Learning By Doing”, which has marked a major turning point in the training of high-quality human resources at DTU, while complying with international standards.

“At DTU, we believe that cooperation with American universities plays an important role in improving the quality of the education we offer in IT,” said International School Vice-Dean Nguyen Duc Man. “Long-term collaborations with CMU and other renowned universities inspire and teach our lecturers and students how to stand out in a world of ever-changing technology.”
“When we send our lecturers to the “Train the Trainer” program at CMU, we’re confident that they’ll be equipped with the most advanced teaching skills and a deep understanding of technology on return. We are proud of our achievements in forging these partnerships, committed to continuing the development of educational excellence at DTU. By applying the latest and most advanced knowledge and technologies, DTU provides the ideal learning environment to our students and, at the same time, contributes to boosting the development of Vietnam’s IT sector to international levels.”
