Originaire de Lausanne, Minh-Quang Tran est né le 30 mai 1951 à Saigon (Viêt-nam). Après le baccalauréat de l'enseignement secondaire, type C, il obtient le diplôme d'ingénieur physicien de l'Ecole polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne en 1973 et un doctorat ès sciences en 1977.
Il passe ensuite deux années au Département de physique de l'Université de Californie à Los Angeles en tant que chercheur et d'adjunct assistant professor. En 1979 il rejoint le Centre de recherche en physique des plasmas (CRPP) où il dirige les recherches en physique fondamentale des plasmas. Ses travaux actuels portent sur les gyrotrons et le chauffage cyclotronique électronique du tokamak TCV du CRPP. En 1993, il devient directeur-adjoint du CRPP.
Il a été nommé professeur titulaire en 1992. Depuis 1980, il assure l'enseignement de diverses branches (physique des plasmas, électrodynamique, mécanique générale) dans le cadre du Département de physique.
Il est nommé professeur ordinaire de physique des plasmas le 1er août 1997. Il donne des cours de base et de physique des plasmas au 1er et 2e cycles ainsi que des enseignements spécialisés de 3e cycle. En parallèle, il continue son activité de recherche dans la physique des plasmas et ses applications. Depuis le 1er avril 1999, il est directeur du Centre de recherches en physique des plasmas (CRPP) et chef de l'Association EURATOM - Confédération suisse. Dans le cadre de l'Association EURATOM-Confédération suisse, il participe aux travaux de divers comités européens et à ceux concernant le projet de réacteur à fusion international ITER.
