71

On August 13, 2024, the 2023-2024 Student Scientific Research Conference, organized by the Scientific Research and International Cooperation Department at Tan Tao University (TTU), concluded, leaving a lasting impression with 7 diverse and highly applicable research projects that showcased the research capabilities of the students. Spanning fields from information technology to environmental studies, these projects not only made practical contributions to society but also served as evidence of the creativity and relentless efforts of the younger generation.

The 2023-2024 Student Scientific Research Conference was a success, featuring impressive and highly applicable projects

This year’s conference featured a judging panel of leading experts, including Prof. Dr. Meden F. Isaac-Lam, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mai Thi Hao Yen, Dr. Dang Thanh Nhon, Dr. Cao Tien Dung, Dr. Ta Van Quang, Dr. Nguyen Vu Hieu Trung, Dr. Tran Duy Hien, Dr. Le Quoc Huy, and Dr. Nguyen Thanh Dien. The panel worked with fairness and integrity to select the most outstanding projects, awarding well-deserved recognition for the students’ commendable efforts and achievements.

The judging panel listened to and evaluated the students’ presentations

One of the highlights of this year’s projects is their practical applicability. The research not only delves into theoretical aspects but also proposes concrete solutions to address current issues. A prime example is the project “BlockCertify: Secure and Transparent University Certificate Verification with Blockchain Technology” which applied blockchain technology to certificate verification, contributing to enhanced transparency and security in education.

The participants confidently presented their research in English

The spirit of innovation and creativity was a standout feature in this year’s projects. The students boldly introduced fresh, groundbreaking ideas, as demonstrated in topics like “Correlation Based Anomaly in Federated Learning” and “Anomaly Detection in Low-Light Environments” These studies not only pave the way for new advancements in technology but also hold significant potential for real-world applications.

The projects were highly regarded for their practicality and innovation in exploring research topics

The panel highly appreciated the quality of the projects, from problem-solving approaches and research methodologies to the presentation and defense of the results. The students demonstrated a deep understanding of their research fields and the ability to apply their acquired knowledge in practical contexts, producing highly valuable research outcomes. As a result, the panel selected and awarded the most outstanding projects as follows:

First Prize: Pham Tran Thi Thu Ngan (School of Information Technology) with the project “Correlation Based Anomaly in Federated Learning”.
Second Prize: Vo Huu Nhan & Ho Nguyen Kim Long (School of Information Technology) with the project “BlockCertify: Secure and Transparent University Certificate Verification with Blockchain Technology”. 
Third Prize: Nguyen Hoai Duy (School of Information Technology) with the project “Anomaly Detection in Low-Light Environments”.
Joint Third Prize: Ngo Thi Tu Suong & Nguyen Thi Huynh Nhu (School of Languages) with the project “Tackling Air Pollution Through Plastic Reduction in Vietnam”.

The 2023-2024 Student Scientific Research Conference not only recognizes the research efforts of students but also lays a solid foundation for further academic and career development. Through the program, students are not only encouraged to think creatively but are also equipped with essential soft skills, helping them gain more confidence in facing future challenges.
