As part of its working visit to France, on July 6, 2026, a delegation from the Posts and Telecommunications Institute of Technology (PTIT) held a meeting with Grenoble Alpes University led by Prof. Stéphane Ploix at the G-SCOP Laboratory (Grenoble Sciences pour la Conception, l’Optimisation et la Production), Université Grenoble Alpes (UGA), to discuss potential cooperation in education and research in the fields of artificial intelligence (AI), automatic control, and mechatronics. The PTIT delegation included Assoc. Prof. Ngo Quoc Dung, Director of the Research Institute of Posts and Telecommunications (RIPT), and Dr. Nguyen Viet Hung, Deputy Head of the Office of Science, Technology and International Cooperation.
Representatives of the two institutions exchange commemorative gifts.
Université Grenoble Alpes is one of France’s leading research universities, renowned for its strengths in science, engineering, and technology. The G-SCOP Laboratory is particularly recognized for its advanced research in design, optimization, smart manufacturing, automatic control, and industrial AI applications.
During the meeting, the two sides discussed opportunities to expand collaboration in education and research, with a particular focus on AI applications in automatic control and mechatronics. PTIT and Université Grenoble Alpes also explored the possibility of promoting doctoral exchanges, research internships, and stronger connections between the research groups of both institutions.
