Students enrolling in the ASE department at FPT University will be equipped with comprehensive knowledge, from basic automobile design principles and operations to an in-depth understanding of electronic and software systems.
They can also acquire specialized skills in designing, developing and testing software systems and embedded systems of automobiles. These include vehicle operation control systems, energy control systems, in-car environmental control systems, safety features, entertainment and connectivity systems, and ADAS.
Through the guidance of experienced experts in automotive and embedded systems from FPT, graduates from this program will have the opportunity to work on various projects with FPT Automotive’s clients, globally.
FPT says the curriculum of ASE has been designed to consider and adhere to standards of international institutions, including the United States Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) for undergraduate IT programs, the AQAS (The Agency for Quality Assurance through Accreditation of Study Programs), ABET (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology) accreditation for educational programs, as well as international standards for functional safety in the automotive industry (ISO 26262) and automotive cybersecurity (ISO 21434).
FPT Automotive CEO Kinh Nguyen said, “FPT Automotive is committed to collaborating closely with FPT University to nurture the next generation of automotive software engineers from Vietnam, contributing to positioning our home country as a prominent destination on the global tech map.”
