With the theme of Innovations, Advancements, and Future Trends in Intelligent Computing Research in Engineering Sciences, ICCIES 2025 aims to update, exchange and discuss modern research trends in the field of computational intelligence, with a special focus on applications in information technology, electronics, mechatronics and the Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem. All presentations and discussions at the Conference focus on academic values, advanced research methods and practical applicability in the context of global digital transformation.

During the working session, representatives from both universities engaged in in-depth discussions on potential areas of cooperation. These included designing diverse joint programs with international universities (dual-degree, pathway, franchise) in faculties/majors such as Business and Economics, Engineering. The two sides also explored opportunities to promote lecturer and student exchange activities, as well as collaborative research in the fields of Business and Economics, Law, Information Technology, etc. In addition, they discussed the potential for inviting lecturers, experts, and professors from the University of Waikato to engage in teaching, research, and the organization of workshops and specialized seminars at TDTU.

The Conference focused on key topics such as the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in designing innovative teaching strategies and personalizing learning environments to meet the needs and capabilities of individual learners. In addition, ethical considerations surrounding the integration of AI into education were actively discussed, alongside issues related to mental health and well-being of both teachers and students in the teaching and learning process.
