The Board of Directors of Intel Products Vietnam and Portland State University
Mr. Nguyễn Khắc Thành and Ms. Nguyễn Kim Ánh, Vice Principal of FPT University openly answered these questions. Mr. Nguyễn Khắc Thành remarked that FPT has complete faith in its University due to two factors: FPT Corporation's information technology achievements and its experience in education and training since 1999 with FPT Aptech and FPT Arena.
FPT University 's strongest advantage is that its students are capable of getting jobs immediately upon graduation.
The representatives were very surprised to learn through Mr. Nguyễn Khắc Thành that the employment ratio for the University's graduates upon graduation was 100%. FPT Corporation is committed to securing employment for its students upon graduation. Moreover, the number of the University's up-coming graduates has not yet to meet the demand from neither FPT Corporation nor FPT Software.
MR. Rick Howarth – Executive Director of Intel Products Vietnam factory was impressed by FPT Corporation's as well as the University's ambition and growth. FPT University is a model for Intel to emulate for its University in the future.
In 2006, Intel invested more than 600 million USD in Vietnam to construct its computer chip and accessories production and assembly factory in Hochiminh City Hi-tech Park. Right from the start, Mr. Craig Barrett, Chairman of Intel Management Board had let on that the factory's staff will come from local population. Intel Vietnam is ready to formulate close cooperation with training organizations and universities to develop its human resource schemes.
