100% of the fourth-year graduates from the first course were recruited by Fore Company and LLL Corporation (Japan) to work in Vietnam, with salaries between $1,200 and $2,200 per month.
Launched in August 2023, the “Cybersecurity Talent Incubator" project or “Blue Rock” was a collaborative program between DTU and the Japanese companies Suganuma and Fore. It consists of two phases.
Training Phase: Students undergo training led by top experts from Fore Company and DTU. Fore Company’s professionals are directly involved in teaching to enhance students' knowledge and skills in security. Students are also given two accounts to learn and practice on online platforms designed for hackers, allowing them to expand their networks both within and beyond the university.
The Blue Rock program consists of two phases: the training phase and the internship phase
Internship Phase: Students participate in real-world projects, gaining hands-on experience in areas such as Bug Bounty and vulnerability diagnostics. Notably, they also receive an internship stipend ranging from $50 to $600 per month while participating in these practical exercises and projects.
The university plans to hold the second course from September 2024 to August 2025.
