16/05/2025

Within the framework of bilateral cooperation between Tyumen Industrial University (IUT), Russian Federation, and Hanoi University of Mining and Geology (HUMG), Assoc. Prof. Dr. Svetlana Tarasova – lecturer from the Department of Environmental Technical Safety – carried out a scientific exchange program at HUMG in April 2025. The activity was conducted under the academic supervision of Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Quoc Phi – Vice Dean of the Faculty of Environment. This program is part of the Russia –Vietnam Consortium of Technical Universities, aiming to enhance academic exchange, foster applied research, and share expertise in the fields of environment and sustainable resource extraction.

The main objective of the program was to examine critical environmental issues in Vietnam in the context of rapid industrialization and to explore joint solutions for environmental monitoring and management in the mining sector. During the program, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Svetlana Tarasova participated in supervising student theses and conducted field surveys at two major industrial sites: Cam Pha Cement Plant (Quang Ninh Province) and Nui Phao tungsten mine (Thai Nguyen Province), where international environmental monitoring standards are being applied.

In addition, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Svetlana Tarasova joined a thematic seminar with HUMG’s Environmental Club, sharing her research experience in the industrial region of Western Siberia and discussing prominent environmental issues in Russia. These in-depth exchanges offered HUMG students a global perspective and fostered interdisciplinary academic dialogue between the two universities.

At the conclusion of the program, HUMG and Tyumen Industrial University agreed to develop a joint research proposal for submission to the Russia–Vietnam Scientific Research Competition. The proposed topic focuses on comparing environmental monitoring models in mining operations across the two countries, with the aim of recommending technical and policy solutions adapted to their respective national contexts.

Additionally, several HUMG students have registered to participate in the international summer program “IUT Ecoengineering 2025” hosted by Tyumen Industrial University, which is scheduled to open on May 19. This marks a tangible expansion of the partnership not only in research but also in education and student exchange.

This scientific exchange program not only created opportunities for practical engagement and academic dialogue between the two universities, but also helped shape future directions for joint research in the fields of environment and resource extraction. The participation of faculty from Tyumen Industrial University at HUMG underscores the importance of international collaboration in improving the quality of higher education and research, while affirming HUMG’s growing role within the global network of technical universities committed to sustainable development and environmental responsibility.
