RDI Partnership Discussion for further Internship Collaboration Program and Research Project with ITENAS Bandung

To follow up the Merdeka Belajar-Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) Program in broadening scholar opportunities to gain more out-of-campus knowledge, RDI was invited to strengthen its collaboration program with the National Institute of Technology (ITENAS) Bandung. On July 1^st, representatives from both respectable institutions, Environmental Engineering ITENAS and RDI, discussed further arrangements for the collaboration program. In a lively discussion held via Zoom Meeting, RDI gave a number of options for scholars to join in the collaboration, including: MBKM Internship Program; Final Research Project; or Adaptive Research Project. In the research projects, RDI will  allocate the scholars to related projects that are currently being conducted, especially in the Water and Waste Management field, which is one of the clusters in RDI. Hopefully, the projects  will give more options for students or scholars who are applying to the MBKM Program. Further arrangement for the collaboration was also featured in the discussion. According to the plan, the collaboration will start in August 2021.
