Zidane from Mozambique: bachelor's, master's and then home

Zidane arrived in Vietnam in 2017, spent a year learning Vietnamese and then studied electrical and electronic engineering technology at HaUI on a government scholarship. His graduation project was a grid-connected solar system for a small factory.

He stayed for a master's degree in electrical engineering. His thesis studied how solar power affects protection coordination on Mozambique's distribution grid, and the examining council praised its practical value. He now works as an electrical engineer in Mozambique.
