Monday (16/10), the Faculty of Engineering Universitas Indonesia (FTUI) received a visit from KTH Royal Institute of Technology at the Meeting Room, FTUI Deanery Building.
“We welcome the arrival of KTH Royal Institute of Technology to be able to collaborate with us in this case specifically related to the Department of Civil Engineering and Environmental Engineering. We hope this collaboration can produce good cooperation to have a positive impact on each party,” said Prof. Dr. Ir. Harinaldi, M.Eng., Head of the FTUI Education Modernisation and Internationalisation Unit.
In the future, FTUI is planning to increase the number of international programme students. For this reason, FTUI supports study programmes that do not yet have international programmes to immediately open international programmes and look for potential partners. With this visit, the Department of Civil Engineering is interested in exploring cooperation with KTH Royal Institute of Technology in international undergraduate programmes for Environmental Engineering and Masters for Transportation Engineering or Project Management.
The representative from KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Prof. Bjorn Berggren, said, “We are very interested in collaborating with FTUI. We have a programme to send our lecturers to join the staff mobility programme and give guest lectures to partner universities. And we hope that next year we can run this cooperation programme with FTUI.”The representative from KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Prof. Bjorn Berggren, said, “We are very interested in collaborating with FTUI.
