The activity is part of a cooperation program between VinFast and 30 universities and colleges nationwide to standardize training programs, curricula, and learning materials in the field of electric vehicle engineering. The initiative aims to develop high-quality human resources to meet growing industry demands in EV manufacturing, maintenance, and repair.

DTU is among the selected institutions receiving both training vehicles and official technical materials for electric vehicle repair. The collaboration also includes the implementation of a “Basic Repair Techniques for VinFast Electric Vehicles” module within the formal curriculum, as well as a “Train-the-Trainer” program to update lecturers on battery technology, powertrain systems, and EV diagnostic software.
Notably, DTU is one of the few universities entrusted with the VF9—VinFast’s flagship model—allowing students to access advanced technologies such as ADAS and the Smart Virtual E-Cockpit system.
University leaders emphasized that the partnership strengthens DTU’s practice-oriented training approach and helps narrow the gap between academic instruction and industry requirements. From the 2026–2027 academic year, DTU plans to introduce a new specialization in Electric Vehicle Technology under its Automotive Engineering Technology program.
Through hands-on experience, internships, and potential recruitment opportunities at VinFast, students are expected to enhance their professional competencies and confidently enter the rapidly growing electric vehicle sector.
