The Department of Information Systems (IS) is one of the leading and long-established departments with significant influence in education, scientific research, and technology transfer in various fields including Computer Science, Management Information Systems, and Information Technology. It operates under the Faculty of Computer Science and Engineering, Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology – VNU-HCM. The department focuses on in-depth development in areas such as modern information systems, management information systems, data science and engineering, and information security. It plays a vital role in the training of undergraduate, engineering, master’s, and doctoral students, while also contributing actively to scientific research and technology transfer to address major and complex problems in society.

The Department of Information Systems originated from the former Department of Databases, which was established in 1993 alongside the founding of the Faculty of Information Technology (now the Faculty of Computer Science and Engineering) at Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology. In 2006, the department was officially renamed the Department of Information Systems to better reflect its academic strengths and to meet the evolving demands of society. Currently, the department consists of 3 Associate Professors, 3 lecturers holding Ph.D. degrees, 1 Senior Lecturer, 5 lecturers holding Master’s degrees, and 3 lecturers who are currently pursuing doctoral studies abroad.
