The FTU-MB Digital Hub, a space for digital creativity – a modern infrastructure system with a strong digital banking design mindset – is one of the achievements of the cooperation agreement between the Military Commercial Joint Stock Bank (MB) and the Foreign Trade University. Since its handover, the FTU-MB Digital Hub has been the venue for important events and activities of the Foreign Trade University, such as workshops on digitalization “Digital Transformation,” the Pitch Perfect competition, and Design Thinking events.
The Digital Hub is also where the collective of lecturers from the Faculty of Finance – Banking, Foreign Trade University experiment with introducing new initiatives, situational exercises, and real-world applications on modern software closely aligned with theory, aiming to bring a fresh approach to traditional knowledge dissemination in the classroom. Students of the Faculty of Finance – Banking have had many interesting and enriching experiences here with lively “negotiations, trading” in simulated derivative transactions, playing the role of “demanding” appraisers in simulated credit assessment games, or personally evaluating investment projects using Monte Carlo simulation applications like Crystal Ball.
The practical classes have received positive feedback and enthusiastic support from students.
With the expectation of further exploiting the benefits that the FTU-MB Digital Hub brings, in the future, the collective of lecturers from the Faculty of Finance – Banking will strive to incorporate new learning modules, digital banking service simulation software, or financial games to enhance interaction in teaching and contribute to guiding students towards practical careers after graduation.
