Unesa.ac.id., SURABAYA—The academic ecosystem continues to be strengthened at Surabaya State University (UNESA) through various domestic and international cooperation programs. Most recently, the 'House of Champions' campus initiated collaboration with the Nederlandse Organisatie voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek (NWO) or The Dutch Research Council at the end of November 2023.
NWO is the research body with the largest funding in the Netherlands which is located in Utrecht and as the most important research funding institution in the Land of Windmills.
"This collaboration is our effort to improve the quality of research and strengthen the education and innovation ecosystem at UNESA. Most importantly, it is to open up opportunities for learning and development for students," said the Chancellor of UNESA, Prof. Dr. Nurhasan, M.Kes.
The Chancellor, who is familiarly called Cak Hasan, added that one of the programs planned in collaboration with NWO is international mobility for students and lecturers. For example, lecturers can carry out joint research with leading researchers in the Netherlands.

Likewise, students are increasingly open to the opportunity to experience the academic atmosphere, research and international discussions with students and even lecturers in the Netherlands.
"Our priority is how lecturers and students can really develop their talents and interests and even their competencies so that they are ready to contribute to society, the country and even the international world," stressed Cak Hasan.
In this collaboration, UNESA is not alone, but also several other LPTK universities which are members of the collaborative consortium. Apart from this agenda, UNESA also had the opportunity to introduce its various innovations and superior programs to the international world through the International Education Exhibition in Utrecht.
This exhibition was attended by 249 universities from all over the world. Involvement in international exhibitions in collaboration with the Indonesian Embassy and NWO is in order to attract Dutch students to study in Indonesia, one of which is at UNESA.
In matters of going to the Netherlands, Cak Hasan was accompanied by the Vice Chancellor for Academic, Student and Alumni Affairs Prof. Dr Madlazim, M.Si; Deputy Chancellor for Law, Management, Finance, Resources and Business Dr. Bachtiar Syaiful Bachri, M.Pd; Head of Sub-Directorate for International Affairs or Office of International Affairs (OIA), Asrori, S.S., M.Pd; and specialized staff.
