On December 17 and 18, 2024, DTU held an "IoT Programming Training Course" for students of the International School (IS). L.LINE, South Korea provided all necessary equipment and directly conducted the training. The program provided the students with updated knowledge of IoT programming, including how to set up and operate robots using programming languages, with the aim of equipping students with programming skills to meet the demands of enhancing digital technology education effectively.

This intensive training program attracted 20 outstanding students from the CMU-standard Software Engineering program of DTU International School. During the course, students assembled autorobots using ultrasonic sensors and servo motors. They also gained hands-on experience working with unmanned delivery robots equipped with line-tracking sensors and DC motors.

CEO of L-Line, South Korea Mr. Jin-Hyung Kim expressed: “We are deeply impressed by the hard work and creativity demonstrated by DTU students throughout the course. We are also proud to make contributions to building the Software Education Ecosystem in Vietnam through this program. We hope to continue collaborating with DTU to nurture more programming talents in Vietnam. We expect DTU students not only to stop at using pre-made kits to build robots but to create even more advanced kits and become leading entrepreneurs and scientists in the future."

Dr. Nguyen Duc Man, Vice - Dean of the DTU International School, shared: "The IoT Programming Training Course provides an excellent opportunity for students to access the latest technology trends and develop practical skills. We hope to see more collaborative programs between DTU and L.LINE, South Korea in the future to promote STEM education, offer in-depth IoT training, and introduce students to modern educational approaches. These efforts will help students expand their career opportunities and contribute to the development of internationally qualified IT talent."

Through the combination of theoretical learning and practical application, students honed their skills in physical computation and gained hands-on experience in designing and assembling robots. Notably, the course also provided students with the opportunity to enhance their teamwork skills by analyzing and solving real-world problems.

Pham Tan Tai, a student from class TPM5 in the CMU-standard Software Engineering program shared: "This course provided me with a lot of new knowledge and experiences, especially in setting up and operating robots through programming languages. "Previously, I was quite familiar with writing code on a computer, but now, having the opportunity to code and directly assemble and operate functional robots, I realize that this process not only requires intense focus and meticulous attention but is also an incredibly exciting experience. The course has also inspired me to nurture many ideas for creating AI-powered robots in the future."

Tai also expressed his hope that the university will continue organizing similar courses, giving students more opportunities to gain hands-on experience, apply their theoretical knowledge, and enhance their learning enthusiasm. These initiatives, he noted, also help students explore diverse career paths for the future.

Hoang Van Tien Dat, a student from the CMU-standard Software Engineering program, enthusiastically shared: ”I was overjoyed to see the robot I built operate smoothly and successfully. After the course, I plan to continue refining and upgrading the robot to perform even better. I sincerely thank the university and L.LINE, South Korea for holding such a meaningful course that allowed us to apply the software theories we have learned to real-world practice." 

At the end of the program, 20 DTU outstanding students received certificates of completion and gained the opportunity to participate in future collaborative initiatives between DTU and L.LINE, South Korea. These include Maker SW teaching activities, startup support programs, and official development assistance (ODA) projects.
