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.

“ 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. ”
Rehabilitative and assistive technologies have helped restore or improve the function of people who suffer from disabilities due to ageing, disease, or injury. The research involved in developing such technology consists of applying engineering and scientific principles to study how people with disabilities function in society. By applying these principles, BINUS UNIVERSITY researcher and lecturer Prof. Dr Widodo Budiharto and his research team, consisting of students Ms Jennifer Santoso and Mr Ivan Halim Parmonangan, developed a wheelchair that can automatically move by receiving commands from receptors in the user’s brain.
Using Brain-Computer Interface technology, EEG (Encephalography) signals created by the brain’s neurons are captured using a special neuroheadset. The signal is then sent to an Application Software which will convert it and drive a small motor fitted onto the wheelchair. To improve the accuracy rate of the system, the research team applied a Support Vector Machine (SVM), a popular algorithm for classification learning.
The project earned the research team 2nd place at the National Student Competition in the field of Information and Technology. Furthermore, Prof. Budiharto was voted as one of Indonesia’s top 15 lecturers of 2015, and in recognition of his work, the team were also able to showcase their project at the 2016 International Conference on Robotics and Vision in Tokyo, Japan.
As a world-class institution committed to research, BINUS UNIVERSITY strives to make available grants, funding opportunities, and facilities to support wide-ranging research initiatives. This has made the university a highly-proficient partner for industry leaders as its research projects can propose and provide effective solutions for a large variety of sectors.
