Mr Nguyễn Văn Mợi graduated from the Moscow Institute of Railway Engineering and joined the Department in 1979. In 2000 he went abroad as a research trainee and in 2002 defended his doctoral thesis at the Moscow State University of Railway Engineering. His work has focused on bridge structures in grade-separated interchanges, the operation, inspection, repair and strengthening of bridges, and reinforced and prestressed concrete structures.
He took part in the study for the repair and strengthening of Thượng Lý Bridge (Hải Phòng, 1980) and in the design of Mai Động Bridge for the Hà Nội Department of Transport.
