UGM and Curtin University Expand Equitable Academic Collaboration Opportunities

Asia-AustraliaInternational ExposureNewsNews ReleaseRecent News Thursday, 29 October 2026

Yogyakarta, October 29, 2026 – Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) welcomed a delegation from Curtin University, Western Australia, on Thursday, October 29, to explore the establishment of an institutional partnership. Discussions centered on potential cooperation in education and research, with a particular focus on equitable access to international academic experiences, student mobility, and short-term programs.

Curtin University is a globally recognized institution committed to transforming lives and communities through education and research. Sustainability is a key priority across its teaching, research, campus development, and community engagement initiatives. UGM and Curtin University already have an Agreement on Student Exchange and Study Abroad covering the 2024–2029 period, providing a foundation for further engagement. The two institutions have also collaborated on research, producing joint publications in areas of shared academic interest.

During the meeting, Priya Saracik, Global Partnerships Consultant at Curtin University, identified student mobility as a practical starting point for expanding ties between the two universities. She expressed interest in developing discipline-specific programs that would allow Curtin students to experience Indonesia through academic activities and community engagement, including micro-volunteering. “We are interested in establishing programs that bring our students to Indonesia, starting with student mobility. We can develop programs tailored to specific disciplines, incorporating experiences such as micro-volunteering and other activities. Starting with smaller initiatives will help us sustain and strengthen the partnership over time,” she said.

Dr. Hendra Gunosewoyo, Senior Lecturer in Medicinal Chemistry at Curtin University’s School of Diagnostic and Therapeutic Sciences, highlighted the importance of connecting academic exchanges with research networks. He emphasized the value of bringing researchers and academic supervisors together to identify common interests and develop joint initiatives. “As a researcher and supervisor, I see significant value in building these connections. By expanding our network of institutional partnerships, we can identify shared research interests and develop collaborative programs that benefit both universities,” he said.

Prof. Puji Astuti, S.Si., M.Sc., Apt., Director of UGM’s Directorate of Partnership and Global Relations, explained that UGM is actively encouraging the development of international partnerships that support equitable access to global academic opportunities. She noted that the university is seeking to connect prospective international partners with relevant faculties and research groups, while exploring funding mechanisms to support collaboration. 

“We want to grow together, not simply transfer students from one university to another. Our staff will work to identify and match international partners with relevant faculties and research groups. For equitable partnerships, we can use our own funding to get initiatives started, as the requirements for high-level research can be demanding. For example, at the Faculty of Pharmacy, there is considerable potential for short-term programs and summer courses. The key is to help students develop into capable scientists, and we can facilitate opportunities for them to work on their theses in collaboration with partner universities,” she said.

Prof. Puji also pointed to UGM’s experience in hosting international programs, including the UAUE Short Summer Program and Monash University’s Global Immersion Guarantee (GIG). These initiatives combine academic activities with cultural immersion and community-based learning, demonstrating how short-term mobility can create meaningful connections between participants and their host communities. Such models could provide a basis for future programs with Curtin University, potentially bringing together students and researchers from different disciplines to address shared academic and societal challenges.

The discussion also highlighted the role of funding in expanding international research engagement. UGM is among seven universities to receive support through a government research funding initiative administered by the Indonesia Endowment Fund for Education (LPDP). This development is expected to expand UGM’s capacity to broaden its international engagement.

As part of the visit, the Curtin University delegation toured UGM’s Faculty of Pharmacy and Faculty of Biology to explore potential areas of cooperation in medicinal chemistry, pharmaceutical sciences, and biology. These visits provided an opportunity to connect academic expertise and identify possible avenues for joint research, student exchanges, and short-term academic programs. By building on existing exchange arrangements and identifying shared priorities, UGM and Curtin University aim to develop a sustained partnership that advances research, broadens access to international learning, and creates lasting benefits for students and academic communities at both institutions.
