On the second day, all participating deans visited PT Yogya Presisi Teknikatama Industri (PT YPTI), a company established in 1999 specializing in plastic product molding, automotive parts, electronics, educational systems, and packaging products.
Dr. Nursahara Pasaribu, M.Sc., expressed her hope that similar activities could be implemented at each faculty. “By directly observing the latest technologies in the industry, lecturers and students can broaden their knowledge and insights, which can lead to updates in faculty curricula,” she stated.
