A notable highlight of LEX 2026 is the participation of HUTECH lecturers and students from various faculties and institutes, enhancing the interdisciplinary nature of the program. This multidisciplinary collaboration allows projects at each site to be approached from diverse academic and practical perspectives. Such an approach not only deepens the professional quality of each project but also creates an environment for students to develop multidimensional thinking, teamwork skills, and real-world problem-solving abilities.
Following the working session, the teams conducted on site surveys at the project locations as planned. LEX 2026 is scheduled to officially take place from March 23 to April 3, 2026, and is expected to remain a key highlight of HUTECH international cooperation activities, contributing to the promotion of experiential education, community engaged learning, and sustainable development.
