According to Prof. Dr. Dra. T. Thyrhaya Zein, M.A. (Dean of FIB USU), this program has become a regular agenda item over the past two years. The ultimate goal is to expand opportunities for collaboration and networking. Based on previous experience, UKM has expressed that the presence of FIB USU students greatly supports the dissemination of information at their placement sites.
“Through cooperation with these five institutions in Medan, we hope this collaboration can encourage the development of strategic programs for more effective information dissemination. Furthermore, this activity is expected to bring positive contributions to the growth of our partner institutions in the future,” she stated. “This program is part of our academic internationalization efforts, particularly through the Inbound Mobility scheme that encourages the exchange of knowledge and culture across nations,” the Dean stated.
