Having protected the topic of graduation in Brunei, FPT University students are recruited
Receiving a topic to create an information
portal for start-ups and investors under a
project of the Brunei government, a group
of FPT University students not only
defended successfully but also received a job
offer at Think-Axis company (Brunei) after
graduation.
A Group of Software Engineering students
including Le Ngo Thuy Hang, Nguyen Phuoc
Vinh Loc, Bui Cong Nam, Nguyen Hai Yen is
one of the first 4 groups of FPT University
students to be recognized for successfully
defending a graduate project abroad. The
group had a semester (4 months) of study and
practice with a real project in Brunei. Leader
Thuy Hang shared: “After flying from Ho Chi
Minh City to Brunei, I felt a little nervous.
This is not only my first time going abroad, but
also for schooling and protecting my
graduation thesis”.


After 7 weeks of major subject’s studies at
Darussalam University, the student group has
only 7 weeks to build and the last 2 weeks to
complete before defending before the council.
Having small amount of time but with
internship experiences in a foreign company,
also participating in a large project, applying
technology to solve practical problems of this
rich kingdom, FPT University's students feel
extremely excited. Having been equipped
English since the first year of university before
entering major period, the group of students
quickly embarked on the work under the
guidance of Mr. Rahman Yoonus, co-founder
of Think-Axis - a large tech company in
Brunei.
The project of 4 FPT University students is a
project of Think-Axis company received from
Brunei government with the goal of collecting
information from start-ups and investors in
order to provide economic policies and suitable
encouraging programs.
Through this project, start-ups can have the
opportunity to seek investment from investors
and the government, while investors can find
reliable startups. “Because all Start-ups
information posted will be approved by the
government. It helps the government to collect
data and view statistics on start-ups and
investors in Brunei”- Team Leader Thuy Hang
shared. Especially, there is currently no portal
for start-ups in Brunei, so this application is the
first one built.
In terms of the input databass well as the habit
of operating on the application, the team is
supported by the company. Student group
assigns themselves to best complete the tasks:
database management, source code
management, face recognition and tester.
Students successfully defended a bridge portal
for startups and investors, applying Face API
facial recognition technology from Microsoft
Azure, Microsoft's SignalR technology that
helped startups and investors to have chat
(online chat) with each other and can receive
notifications from the system immediately
(real-time).

About Achievements, the group's project meets
the requirements of Think-Axis. Moreover,
“the group was invited by the company to work
in Brunei after graduation. And there may be
opportunities to travel around the world,
because the company's customers are from
many countries, popularly Singapore ”- the
leader shared. After returning from Brunei, the
group of FPT University Software
Engineering students will complete the remaining majors before officially accepting
jobs abroad.
An internship trip not only brings new
knowledge, experience in a technological
environment, working environment in
developed countries, but the recognition of
foreign enterprises also partly reflects the
training quality of an University which has just
been recognized as an excellent Asian IT
training institution (ASOCIO 2018).
Student Le Ngo Thuy Hang shared: “I am
extremely excited about working in a new
environment, using and learning many new
technologies, making many interesting friends.
The more exciting thing is when you feel your
choice is right. I wanted the university to create
conditions for me to exchange in other
countries before and now it has come true”.
In the Fall 2018 semester (from September to
December), FPT University had 12 students
come to Brunei to study majors, OJT (On The
Job Traning - Practical internship in
enterprises) and protect the topic of graduation.
This is not the first time that FPT University's
students have gone abroad to practice, but this
is the first time that students are recognized to
successfully protect their graduation thesis
with practical projects from technology
companies.
