Experts from Mitsubishi will train final-year students at the Institute of Nuclear Engineering and Environmental Physics in nuclear power plant technology starting this year.
The Hanoi University of Technology, which runs the institute, signed an agreement January 26 with the Japanese company to set up a curriculum in pressurized water reactor technologies.
Mitsubishi has also instituted a scholarship worth US$6,000 annually for budding nuclear scientists.
The National Assembly approved last November the construction of Vietnam’s first nuclear power plant in the central province of Ninh Thuan in 2014.
