PhD Student from Industrial Mathematics Lab of Baikal School of BRICS Dao Minh Hien Awarded by Vietnamese Prime Minister
In late March, the Prime Minister of the Government of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, Pham Minh Chinh, paid an official visit to Moscow. As part of his packed schedule, the head of the Vietnamese Government met with his talented compatriots studying in Russia. Pham Minh Chinh presented a Certificate of Merit to Dao Minh Hien, a PhD student at the Industrial Mathematics Laboratory of the Baikal School of BRICS.
“During the working trip of the high-level delegation to the Russian Federation, I had the honor of receiving a Certificate of Merit from Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh of Vietnam and the Vietnamese Ambassador to the Russian Federation, as well as taking a commemorative photo with them.
This recognition is a great reward for me and a powerful source of motivation for further improvement in my studies and research,”
Dao Minh Hien said.
Speaking about his experience of studying and conducting research in Russia, the PhD student said that he previously taught mechatronics at Dai Nam University (Hanoi Polytechnic University). He then explored the opportunities offered by Russian universities and chose to study at INRTU.
Currently, Dao Minh Hien is conducting research in the field of mathematical modeling, numerical methods, and software systems, focusing on estimating the energy storage level using machine-learning methods.
“This area of research is important both academically and practically. During my studies, I was fortunate to receive qualified guidance from Professor Denis Sidorov, as well as valuable support from faculty members and colleagues in my research group.
The serious academic atmosphere, the spirit of regular scientific exchange, and the support of my research advisor have helped me make significant progress on my research path.
During my time in Russia, I have had the opportunity to publish several articles in international scientific journals and to participate in prestigious scientific conferences. This experience has helped broaden my knowledge, deepen my academic network, and gradually establish myself in the international research environment,”
Dao Minh Hien noted.
According to the PhD student, the biggest challenge was learning the Russian language. However, it helped him develop perseverance, determination, and adaptability:
“I believe that the time spent in Russia for my studies and research will become an important foundation for my personal development and future contributions to science”.
It should be noted that today more than 3,000 Vietnamese students are studying in Russia. The Russian Federation annually provides government scholarships to talented Vietnamese students. Recently, the Vietnamese Government decided to allocate an additional 1,000 scholarships from its own budget to complement the existing 1,000 scholarships provided by the Russian Federation; these will cover students' travel and living expenses in Russia. This step will significantly ease the financial burden on students and contribute to the further development of scientific and educational ties between the Russian Federation and Vietnam.
