作为一个致力于研究的世界级机构，建国大学除了建立负责推动教职员开展研究活动的研究和技术转移办事处外，还建立多个研究兴趣小组。因此，建国大学成为行业领导者的出色合作伙伴；目前，学校已与Gudpoin和Yamaha建立了合作研究关系。此外，建国国际学院还是海外许多知名高等教育机构在当地的领先合作伙伴，这充分证明了建国大学在领衔研究开发上作出的广泛努力。
BINUS UNIVERSITY 与广泛的国际高等教育机构及企业有着密切合作，该校学生有广大机遇参与到国际交流，实习，及各种交换生项目的机会。另外，我们的3+1提升项目，提供本科 学生有一年的社区发展研究，项目开发，及创业孵化参与经验积累机会。项目运作主要由BINUS Global Collaboration Center, BINUS Career, BINUS Entrepreneurship Center, the Research and Technology Transfer Office, and Teach For Indonesia。
BINUS UNIVERSITY lecturer and researcher Dr Bens Pardamean is currently developing his research on the utilisation of agricultural bioscience to support Indonesia’s food security measures. In collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture, Dr Pardamean aims to produce rice paddies that can withstand adverse weather conditions from droughts, to flooding and soil problems such as iron toxicity and high salt content.
Funded by the United Nation’s Food and Agriculture Organization, the research investigated the possible biomarkers — indicators of a biological state or condition — in rice grains that have desirable traits such as disease resistance and yield improvements. BINUS UNIVERSITY through its Bioinformatics and Data Research Center will then develop a molecular toolkit using bioinformatics and statistical methodologies to help scientists to study the genetic influences of Indonesian rice varieties. The toolkit will assist in selecting and testing the relationship of different biological pathways in rice that affect its resistance to severe weather conditions. Through this, it is hoped that different breeding lines can be tested and help farmers to produce greater yields of genetically superior paddies that can withstand extreme weather anomalies. Furthermore, the toolkit can also serve as a model for agronomic research on other plant crops in Indonesia. As environmental stresses constrain rice production in addition to other staple crops in Indonesia, the need to research and develop rice grain varieties with improved traits is gaining greater prominence as the country looks to food sustainability in the coming years.
As the natural resource-rich country, Indonesia faces unique challenges in strengthening its national food security thus research and development into key staple food items such as rice are essential to combatting continuous poor yields and the lack of quality seeds. As such, it is research projects carried out by BINUS UNIVERSITY's that are essential towards the long-term advancement of Indonesia's agriculture industry going forward.
