Contact UsAs a world-class institution committed to research, BINUS UNIVERSITY has developed numerous research programmes and strives to facilitate research-related activities for its faculty members. 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. ”
BINUS University will be hosting 27 students and 3 facilitators from Singapore Polytechnic as part of the Learning Express (LeX) collaboration which will take place from the 2nd to the 13th September 2019. From BINUS University, 27 students will have the chance to work closely with their Singaporean peers to find innovative solutions to local challenges. The program will involve intensive immersion with a community in Rusunawa Pesakih (Daan Mogot, Jakarta Barat) to identify specific issues and needs facing the local community and to formulate sustainable and innovative solutions using the Design Thinking approach.
The program will involve the BINUS students cooperating directly with the students from Singapore Polytechnic on 3 project areas, namely waste management, community farming and community engagement. These three specific areas present unique challenges in Indonesia and therefore require a fresh approach which the format of the collaborative project offers. This program will provide students from both universities with an occasion to work closely with peers from a different culture, thus offering a different viewpoint which will demand strong intercultural communication skills and team work alongside the other varied demands of the project such as critical thinking and solution focused analysis.
Working closely with Teach for Indonesia (TFI), the program provides the opportunity for BINUS University to expand the scope of its international programs to community development activities and social innovation projects that benefit local communities in Indonesia with the potential for broader applications.
