Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HCMUT) will co-operate with Siemens to develop the university’s Industry 4.0 Lab.

This co-operation follows a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) inked between the two sides in HCM City on Tuesday.

The partnership leverages Siemens’ expertise in Industry 4.0 to strengthen HCMUT’s curricula, and aims to foster greater development in science and technology, Siemens said in a statement.

The two parties will co-ordinate to identify gaps in the current curricula on Industry 4.0 and energy technology to develop new training courses to supplement and enhance HCMUT’s current offerings.

By implementing Siemens’ solutions to their Innovation Lab, HCMUT can now showcase the complete suite of Siemens’ software and services at the lab.

With a full range of solutions, the facility will support proof of concepts and illustrate how enterprise-wide digitalisation is transforming the global manufacturing industry. The goal is to give students a unique environment to build and test digital solutions using advanced technologies. — VNS
