Ten universities and institutes will be allowed to train human resources for Vietnam’s first nuclear power plants, stated Institute for Atomic Energy of Vietnam Director Vuong Huu Tan.

According to the Ministry of Education and Training plan, seven universities and institutes will do this job, including Hanoi University of Technology, Da Lat University, Electricity University, Institute for Atomic Energy of Vietnam (under the Ministry of Science and Technology), Physics Institute (under the National Institute for Science and Technology), Hanoi and HCM City University for Natural Sciences.

Other universities like Hanoi Industry University, HCM City Industry University and HCM City University of Technology also asked to offer nuclear technology training, added Tan.

The Russian partner will assist Vietnam to train employees for the nuclear power plants. Forty people have been sent to Russia for training and others will be trained in France, the US and Japan.

Vietnam will need an estimated 2400 staff who are university graduates to operate the Ninh Thuan 1 and 2 plants. Meanwhile, MoET’s survey in 2008 showed that Vietnam had only 505 experts of nuclear technology, who worked at the Vietnam Institute for Atomic Energy, the Agency for Radiation and Nuclear Safety under the Ministry of Science and Technology, Hanoi University of Technology, Da Lat University, Electricity University and Hanoi and HCM City Universities for Natural Sciences.
