Biography

Dr. Nguyen The Hoang obtained his PhD in Mechanics, major in Aerospace Structures and Composite Materials, from ISAE-ENSMA, France in 2005. He has got several prestigious academic awards such as Medal for Excellent Aeronautical Undergraduate (2001), French Eiffel Excellent Scholarship (2002), Best MBA Postgraduate of Solvay Brussels School (2010). He has published many scientific papers in prominent international journals and conferences in Aeronautical Engineering and Aviation-related fields since being a PhD research scholar.   

To date, Dr. Hoang has more than 16 years working as a lecturer-researcher in well-known aerospace institutions and programs in France, Japan, Australia and Vietnam. In addition, during the last 9 years, he has worked in Aviation industry as senior executive members for global Airlines and consulting firms.

In teaching, Dr. Hoang has interests in numerous subjects from Engineering to Management in Aviation, including but not limited to Aircraft Engineering & Maintenance Management (Technical & Finance); Airline Safety & Quality Management (related subjects); Human Factors in Aviation; Operation Management in Aviation (Airline focus); Airline Network and Fleet; Scientific Research Methodology in Engineering; Aircraft Structures Analysis; Mechanics of Composite Materials; Fracture & Fatigue analysis; Numerical Computation - Finite Element Method;

In research, he currently conducts several interdisciplinary projects in a wide range of areas such as Application of Virtual Reality in Aviation, Optimization and development of digital-based solutions for Airlines’ operations, Safety and Quality Management in Airlines, and Durability of Aircraft structures and composite materials. His key research directions focus on application of emerging technologies (eg. VR/AR, IoT, ML/AI, 3D Printing) in relevant Aviation-related fields.
