(FDCHT) — Global recognition is more than an institutional achievement; it is an opportunity to build meaningful connections and expand academic horizons. Following BINUS University’s continued presence among the Top 200 universities in the QS World University Rankings: Asia 2027, the university continues to strengthen its international engagement through academic networking and cross-institutional collaboration.

During the QS Higher Ed Summit: Asia Pacific 2026 in Bali (3-5 November), representatives from BINUS University, including the Faculty of Digital Communication and Hotel & Tourism (FDCHT), School of Design (SOD), and School of Information Systems (SIS), met with Dr. Sy. Nurleyana Wafa Binti Sy. Naguib Wafa, PhD., Director of International Collaboration and Engagement (ICE) at Multimedia University (MMU), Malaysia.

Representing BINUS University were Dea Prasetyawati, Dean of the Faculty of Digital Communication and Hotel & Tourism; Mita Purbasari, Associate Dean of the School of Design; and Yohannes Kurniawan, Vice Rector of Student Affairs.

The meeting provided an opportunity to explore potential areas of international academic engagement, particularly in connecting multidisciplinary expertise, strengthening institutional networks, and expanding opportunities for future collaboration.

For FDCHT, this engagement aligns with its commitment to developing future-ready graduates across four academic programs: Communication, Public Relations, Tourism, and Hotel Management. By connecting academic perspectives with international developments, FDCHT seeks to create broader learning opportunities that prepare students to navigate the evolving global communication, tourism, and hospitality industries.**
