1. Introduction

Shi Nguyen-Kuok (Nguyễn Quốc Sỹ; born February 20, 1967, in Hanoi) is a plasma scientist and the chairman of the VinIT Institute of Technology.

2. Early Life

Nguyen-Kuok was born on February 20, 1967. He graduated from high school in 1983 with honors. In the same year, he passed the state examination for admission to higher education. At the end of the contest, he was selected for a scholarship in the Soviet Union. From September 1983 to June 1984, he studied Russian at a preparatory facility of the Institute of Foreign Languages in Hanoi.

3. Higher Education

In August 1984, Shi Nguyen-Kuok came to the Soviet Union and began his first year of studying at the electromechanical department of the Leningrad Polytechnic Institute (now the St. Petersburg State Polytechnic University). While he studied at the institute, he engaged in research in the physics and technology of low-temperature plasma, participating in student scientific conferences. Nguyen-Kuok received awards from the academic council and rector of the institute and certificates of honor from the Leningrad City Council for successful participation in study and research work. In 1989, he graduated with a M.Sc. degree from the institute with honors. In the same year, he began working in the institute as an assistant at the Department of Electrical Engineering and Technology in a laboratory for plasma technique and technology.

In June 1992, he successfully defended his doctoral thesis called "Simulation of the interaction between flow solid particles and plasma" and was awarded a PhD specializing in electrotechnology. That same year, the scientific council of the institute recognized it as the best thesis in a competition, and Nguyen-Kuok was selected for postdoctoral study at the same institute.

In March 2002, he wrote a dissertation work, "Investigation of the Induction and Arc Plasma Torches", for a D.Sc. degree with a specialty in electrotechnology from the institute. The Higher Attestation Commission of the Russian Federation praised the work as the best-defended dissertation of 2002.

4. Career

From 1994 to 2003, Nguyen-Kuok continued his position as an associate professor of the Electrical Engineering and Technology Department at his alma mater. He taught the courses "Mathematical modeling of plasma and beam installations", "Theory of induction heating", "Plasma physics", and "Design of plasma and beam installations".

Since 2003, he has worked as a professor at the Department of General Physics and Nuclear Fusion in the Moscow Power Engineering Institute. He teaches the lectures "Mathematical methods of plasma physics", "Mathematical modeling of sources of low-temperature plasma", "Transport processes in plasma", "Computer technologies in science and education", and "Plasma Technique and Technology". For students from Myanmar training for an M.S., he teaches the courses "Plasma physics and controlled nuclear fusion", "Kinetics of low-temperature plasma", and "Statistical physics and quantum phenomena". Under his guidance, new courses and a new laboratory for plasma were created. He became the head of the laboratory in 2005. Under his leadership, new laboratory equipment was manufactured and tested, and new textbooks about plasma were published. (As of 2019), the laboratory serves as a base for training undergraduate and graduate students who specialize in fusion reactors and plasma systems.

Since 2011, Nguyen-Kuok has been the scientific supervisor of the company Technokeramica. Under his guidance, installations and a technological process for processing refractory (heat-resistant) powders in RF plasma torches were developed.

In 2016, he participated in the creation of the VinIT Institute of Technology and was elected President of the Management Board of VinIT.

In 2017, Nguyen-Kuok Shi's wrote a monograph titled "Theory of Low-Temperature Plasma Physics", which was published by the publishing house Springer Science+Business Media.

Nguyen-Kuok is a full member of the International Academy for System Studies since 2012 and the Russian Academy of Electrotechnical Sciences since 2015. Professor Nguyen-Kuok Shi is a leading expert of Russia and the world on Plasma Physics and Technology with 200 scientific works. He regularly participates in international conferences and symposiums regarding plasma physics and plasma technology.
