Later, when he became the Director of the CMC Institute of Technology Applications, he and his colleagues continued to launch nearly 30 technology products in the fields of AI, blockchain and semiconductor microchips. Of which, the CIVAMS facial recognition solution was ranked top 1 in Vietnam and top 12 in the world according to the assessment of the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). In 2024, the Electronic and Telecommunications Engineering Technology major under the Faculty of Microelectronics and Telecommunications will begin enrolling with an expected quota of 80 students in the first year. According to Dr. Dang Minh Tuan, CMC University has an advantage in training semiconductor microchip design. The school belongs to CMC Group with a system of 11 member companies as well as global partners who are "thirsty" for semiconductor human resources. For example, Samsung, one of the two leading chip suppliers and manufacturers in the world, is the largest investor in CMC. These are open positions for students after graduation. Currently, CMC has also invested in 2 microchip design labs with software copyright from Synopsys Chip Corporation, located at CMC University and CMC ATI Institute. Students will have the opportunity to practice with international standard microchip design tools early.
