FPT Edu students will have the opportunity to gather insights into training programs, products, and projects within the semiconductor field that businesses and universities are currently undertaking. Notably, numerous recruitment and learning prospects within the semiconductor industry at Taiwanese businesses and universities will be earmarked for students who exhibit requisite knowledge, skills, and alignment with industry requirements during the interviews.

Today's event provides FPT Edu students with the chance to enroll in semiconductor training programs at universities. Those who seize this opportunity may receive various benefits, including free tuition, accommodation, and monthly stipends ranging from 8 to 25 million VND, depending on the program (internship, Master's, PhD, post-doctoral). Moreover, for students aiming to pursue careers in this field, potential salaries could fall within the range of 60 to 100 million VND per month, with annual increments.

The Career and Study Fair for the Semiconductor Industry at FPT University is part of the itinerary of Taiwanese businesses and universities visiting Vietnam. This visit aims to foster collaborations in the Semiconductor industry, involving prominent IT training institutions and universities in Vietnam, such as FPT Corporation.

Semiconductor microchips are poised to shape the future of the digital industry. Recognizing this, FPT Corporation and FPT University prioritize human resource training in this sector as a crucial activity. Their efforts aim to cultivate high-quality digital talent for Vietnam and neighboring countries.  Events like these employment fairs and learning opportunities serve as valuable platforms for young professionals to receive education at top universities and pursue careers with leading businesses worldwide.
