Studying IT at Dai Nam University: Students not only learn technology but also create products they are proud of.

A student-developed product was featured on VTV. A student team won the Hackathon 2026 championship. Even more impressively, these achievements are products developed by students from the Information Technology (IT) Faculty of Dai Nam University, based on real-life problems.

From a fall to a product featured on VTV.

If someone falls and is unable to call for help themselves, what can technology do? From this very common question, students from the IT Department of Dai Nam University have developed a smart watch that alerts users to falls, capable of detecting incidents, activating SOS, and sending information to family members or helpers.

The product was featured on Vietnam Television (VTV) in the "Living Safely" program. Behind those few minutes of television appearance lies a whole process of research, programming, hardware connection, testing, failures, revisions, and refinement by the group of students. That's when knowledge no longer remains on the computer screen but becomes a product that can help people.

48 hours of mind-bending challenges and a championship title.

At the Build@HUB Hackathon 2026 - Build Beyond Limits, the Record of Ragnarok team from the Faculty of Information Technology, Dai Nam University, faced a challenging 48-hour task: applying technology to monitor and detect early abnormalities in cardiovascular patients.

You have combined IoT and AI to build a smart patient monitoring system capable of collecting and analyzing health data and supporting early warning systems.

Within 48 hours, the team researched, programmed, tested, debugged, and defended their solution before the mentors.

As a result, the Record of Ragnarok team won first place in the University category of the competition, which brought together over 600 students from 87 schools in 19 provinces and cities nationwide.

The trophy is a proud achievement, but more importantly, after those 48 hours, the students knew they could identify a problem, choose the right technology, and create a real solution.

If I study IT, who will I become?

That's perhaps a more important question than the name of a field of study. At the Faculty of Information Technology, Dai Nam University, students have six paths to choose from and build their own career, including:

- Software development with the goal of creating software products and systems;

- Embedded systems & IoT with a focus on developing smart devices and systems;

- Robotics & Artificial Intelligence: Integrating AI, sensors, and controls into robots;

- Data science, with its ability to transform data into information for forecasting and decision-making;

- Artificial intelligence aims to build systems capable of learning and problem-solving;

- Information systems oriented towards connecting technology with the operations of organizations and businesses.

Six different approaches, but all leading to one competency: not just knowing technology, but being able to use technology to create something valuable.

To do it, you need a place to do it.

Therefore, IT students don't just learn in the classroom. They have two hardware-networking and AI & IoT labs to practice, test models, and develop products. Nearly 30 ICT businesses and research institutions in the collaborative network provide students with access to real-world work environments and business problems.

Here, students also have the opportunity to exchange, study, and intern in Taiwan, Poland, Australia, and the United States through an international partner network. Most importantly, students have mentors who guide them from the moment they say, "I have an idea," until they can confidently say, "This is my product."

Don't just ask what you can do after graduating with a degree in IT.

Try asking a bigger question: What kind of person can I become during my four years of university? Perhaps today you're watching a student from Dai Nam University showcase their product on VTV or seeing your peers lift the Hackathon championship trophy. But tomorrow, that person could very well be you. That journey might begin with a line of code, an idea, or a problem you want to solve. Then, you'll learn, work, experiment, make mistakes, try again, and turn that idea into your own product.

University is not just a place to get a degree. University should be a place where, four years later, you can look back and see that you have become a different version of yourself: knowledgeable, productive, capable, and something to be proud of. Dai Nam University's IT program – learn to do, do to create value, and grow to be ready to enter the world of technology.
