BINUS UNIVERSITY therefore makes available grants, funding opportunities as well as all-encompassing research tools in order to support wide-ranging research initiatives. In doing so, the university has successfully proposed viable solutions for a large variety of sectors including food biotechnology, computer system, medicine, and bioinformatics among others. As such, BINUS UNIVERSITY is renowned as a highly-proficient partner by industry leaders; currently, the university has established research collaboration with Gudpoin and Yamaha. Moreover, BINUS International is a leading local partner for a number of esteemed institutions of higher education overseas illustrating the university’s extended efforts in spearheading research development.
BINUS UNIVERSITY’s extensive international network of partners of higher education institutions as well as businesses enables its students to partake in a wide array of student mobility programmes, internships, and student exchange opportunities. Furthermore, through its 3+1 enrichment programme initiative, undergraduate students are offered a year of experience in community development, research engagements, and start-up incubators among others. Leading these key programmes are the BINUS Global Collaboration Center, BINUS Career, BINUS Entrepreneurship Center, the Research and Technology Transfer Office, and Teach For Indonesia.
BINUS UNIVERSITY is committed to delivering unsurpassed student experience services thus the university makes available programmes as well as organisations ranging from Alumni Network and BINUS UNIVERSITY Learning Community. To encourage students in partaking in community development initiatives, BINUS UNIVERSITY has also setup Teach For Indonesia thus enabling enrolled students the opportunity to closely engage with Indonesian society. Under the guidance of the International Office, BINUS UNIVERSITY continues to successfully implement recruitment strategies for international students by offering courses that are taught in English. In the coming years, BINUS UNIVERSITY is aiming to increase the number of enrolled local and international students particularly from China and the ASEAN in keeping with its extensive list of university partners in the aforementioned regions. Currently, BINUS UNIVERSITY offers the BINA NUSANTARA Mandarin Club as well as the Mandarin Literature Student Organisation which strives to facilitate students from Chinese-speaking regions; these clubs also enable students to explore BINUS UNIVERSITY’s diverse cultural background.
“ Even though we remain highly-focused on our students and graduates, we are also committed to BINUS UNIVERSITY’s original purpose as a university which is to educate the entire Indonesian society. ”
On the 22nd November 2019, BINUS University received an award from the Indonesian Ministry of Finance in recognition of the university’s efforts in promoting tax inclusion, education and fiduciary responsibility. Taking place in Jakarta, the award ceremony highlighted three categories in which BINUS University has made significant contributions to raising awareness in the field of taxation namely a pilot tax inclusion project at the BINUS University West Jakarta campus, the inclusion of partner lecturers on the topic as part of the BINUS Character Building program and the BINUS Tax Centre.
For Indonesia to realise its full potential as a major global economic power, the widening of the tax base is a crucial component in order to fund much needed state infrastructure and services. Despite the country’s large and youthful population of over 250 million people, the country’s tax to GDP ration is less than 12% compared to 25-50% in neighboring and developed economies. It is estimated that just 1 million tax payers actually pay the amount of tax that they owe which has led to tax collection shortfalls year after year. A recent tax amnesty undertaken by President Jokowi has yielded results in encouraging the repatriation of funds to the country, but fiscal and financial education is the only route to finding a sustainable solution for the longer term.
This award illustrates the emphasis that BINUS University places on creating young, empowered and tax conscious leaders that will make a positive impact on the next generation. This attitude is not only evident through its various finance and accounting focused undergraduate and masters degree programs, but also as a common thread throughout the curriculum in its broad range of courses which strive to generate sought after graduates who are motivated to be part of the country’s success story.
