First,a Russian research university engaged in research for the cluster was selected as a site whichhelps the cluster with challenging process of internationalization. Next, a representative officeof this Russian university was established in Vietnam to balance cultural, linguistic,psychological, and administrative issues.

a semester-long team design project which is divided into three phases – problem definition, conceptual design, and final design. Research projects are led by curiosity to solve real-world problems by understanding user needs, and limitations of the system, prototyping solutions, testing, and assessing the impact of the solution on society. The project is driven by the Engineering Mindset Learning model where students chase their curiosity and pursue their entrepreneurial goals. Weekly laboratory instructions, manuals, and video presentations are made available to the students. Teams are formed depending on the class sizes. Assessments: Weekly graphics assignments, quizzes, and four midterm exams exist. For the project, students are
