During the presentation of achievements, Head of KUI Dr. Jeki Wibawanti at the LLDIKTI VI office emphasised that this achievement was the result of the collective work of the entire Umpwr academic community in building a strategic collaborative network.
"This nomination is clear evidence that Umpwr is increasingly being recognised in the higher education collaboration ecosystem. KUI will continue to strengthen its role in building cooperation that supports the downstreaming of research, community service programmes and cooperation that benefits society," said Dr. Jeki.
Meanwhile, Head of Domestic Cooperation Galih Bagas Soesilo, S.H., LL.M. added that this success was also inseparable from the support of domestic partners, ranging from local governments, educational institutions, to the industrial world.
‘We are committed to maintaining and expanding our existing collaborative networks, as well as opening up new opportunities for innovation and broader cooperation,’ Galih emphasised.
