As a consulting design engineer in the construction field, Ivan realized the importance of ensuring that the solutions he designs are effectively implemented. That’s why he decided to join the BK-IMP Program in Construction Management to gain additional knowledge and skills necessary for his work.
Ivan is one of the students who received a full scholarship for the BK-IMP Program in Construction Management through the Collaborative Education Program (CEP) between HCMUT, Yokohama National University, Yangon Technological University, and JFE Steel Corporation. Speaking about this, he shared: “The scholarship provided me with positive values, particularly an openness to new changes. I embraced the opportunities and meaningful changes that came my way, even after a decade of career development. These aspects have broadened my mind and led me towards a better development path.”
Ivan’s learning journey was particularly challenging when he had to spend a certain time fighting with Covid-19. “Even when I was ill, I maintained a positive attitude. The difficulties did not stop me from acquiring new knowledge during my time at HCMUT,” Ivan shared.
“The curriculum is connected with the knowledge I gained during my undergraduate program and my professional practice. I participated in numerous seminars and class presentations throughout my studies, which significantly boosted my confidence. The quality of education exceeded my expectations, enabling me to confidently apply classroom knowledge to real-world practice. The learning environment is truly dynamic and enjoyable; everyone is kind, approachable, and knowledgeable. My learning journey at HCMUT has been truly memorable and meaningful,” Ivan expressed when asked about his learning experiences in the BK-IMP Program.
Regarding his plans after completing the program, he mentioned that he intends to continue developing his career in his field of expertise and wishes to share the valuable knowledge he gained from the BK-IMP Program. “If I have the opportunity to pursue higher education, I will consider making a suitable choice,” Ivan shared.
