Strengthening Internationalization: UNHAS Discusses Framework for International Program Book (IO)

The International Office (IO) of Hasanuddin University (UNHAS) recently conducted a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) on the upcoming International Program Book design. The publication will comprehensively cover program activities implemented by various related units across UNHAS, including the Institute of Quality Assurance and Education Development (Lembaga Penjaminan Mutu dan Pengembangan Pendidikan – LPMPP), the Institute of Research and Community Development (Lembaga Penelitian dan Pengabdian Masyarakat – LPPM), the Directorate of Partnership, and other supporting units.

The discussion was led by Dr. Andi Masyitha Irwan, Head of IO, facilitated by Haniek Khoirunnissa, M.Sc. (IO Task Force), and moderated by Muhammad Ridwan, M.A. (IO Secretary). The event was also attended by representatives from related units, including Dr. Arifah, M.A., from the Faculty of Public Health’s Task Force for Internationalization, whose insights contributed significantly to the development of the book’s content.

During the session, Ms. Haniek presented a step-by-step guide outlining the process for compiling and structuring data from each unit. Participants were briefed on the required content and the standardized template to be used in the book. The collaborative discussion allowed participants to exchange ideas and align on the direction of the book’s design and objectives.

Held on Monday, 20 October 2025, at the Partnership of Australia and Indonesia Research Centre (PAIR) meeting Room, 2nd Floor. The FGD concluded with an agreement to follow up by sending an official notification letter to all related units. Each unit will be responsible for preparing and submitting the required data to be integrated into the International Program Book, which is expected to serve as a comprehensive reference for UNHAS’s internationalization initiatives.
