Education
National Dong Hwa University
PhD in Computer Science
2014 - 2020
During my time at National Dong Hwa University, I was working on my PhD in Computer Science, specializing in Learning Technologies. My research focused on the development of a Peer-Interaction Programming Learning System (PIPLS) to support students in learning programming through peer interaction.
I spent a lot of my free time with my friends and family, exploring the beautiful landscapes of Taiwan, and learning about the culture and people of this country.
Hanoi University of Science and Technology
Master in Computer Science
2010 - 2012
During my time at Hanoi University of Science and Technology, I was working on my Master’s degree in Computer Science. My research title was: Research on the application of SOA architecture in enterprise environments.
Hung Vuong University
Bachelor in Computer Science
2006 - 2010
I attended Hung Vuong University in 2006, achieving the highest admission grade and graduating with top honors. I then stayed on to become a lecturer immediately after graduation. My dissertation title was: Research on Java Platform, Micro Edition on mobile phones (j2me) and building a demonstration application.
