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’s Bioinformatics and Data Science Research Centre (BDSRC), aims to showcase the numerous research opportunities that are made available at the centre through the availability of cutting-edge tools and comprehensive learning resources. With unparalleled focus in the field of bioinformatics, the research interests of the BDSRC allow for the development of computational methods for collecting and analysing a wide array of biological data. Furthermore, through the centre's collaborative efforts with international and local partners, the university is able to provide state-of-the art facilities and an interdisciplinary learning and training environment for students as well as researchers.
The research opportunities at the BDSRC are specialised in the areas of colorectal cancer, the development of an Indonesian cancer registry system in addition to a genetic screening tool designed to detect the genetics of nicotine addiction and smoking behaviour. Moreover, with Indonesia expected to enter an era in which lifestyle-related illnesses such as cancer and cardiovascular disease are set to become future health concerns, the BDSRC will utilise novel computational approaches to solving these important biological issues as well as provide the training in science and technology.
Through the BDSRC’s research interests, the centre hopes to illustrate how bioinformatics and computational biology are key components to understanding the functional aspects of human diseases. This also demonstrates BINUS UNIVERSITY’s forward-thinking approach to advancing knowledge for communities through the development of research centres, as the university seeks to address prevailing issues within Indonesia’s socio-economic development.
