Universities Brawijaya is one of
seven universities from 3 Asian
partner countries of a project Co,
funded by the Erasmus+ program of
the European Union called enabling
humanitarian attributes for nurturing
community based engineering.
Led by University of Warwick,
UK, the enhanced team,
in UB consists of three faculty of
Engineering's lecturers and two lecturers
from agriculture engineering faculty.
The team in the Faculty of Engineering
consists of Miss Christia Mediana
who is also the chief of the Master Program,
Mister Surjono
and Mr Adipandang Yudono
Hello everyone,
my name is Irnia Nurika as the
coordinator of enhance partner
from the University of Brawijaya
Indonesia.
At the moment I'm as the associate professor
at Agro Industrial Technology Department.
My research and teaching area are relates
to the development of renewable energy,
an environmental waste management.
The involvement of UB in Enhance Project
will give the opportunity for UB
to get some possible benefit.
To develop curriculum of
humanitarian engineering to
improve teaching quality process,
including the assessment and
evaluation of the students.
As well as obtain graduate of humanitarian
engineering program
need by stakeholder.
The enhance project will also give
the opportunity for Research Group
in UB to get involved in research
related to humanitarian engineering.
Hello everyone,
my name is Erryana Martati from Indonesia.
I'm a lecturer at Universitas
Brawijaya at Faculty
of Agricultural Technology
It is a great opportunity for
me to join in Enhance Project.
The challenge in teaching in
science in Universitas
Brawijaya is because the class
is a big size class and can be 2
until four parallel of classes.
Therefore it is challenging to engage
with all students to encourage
students to participate actively
in the class and also to working
either individually or in a groups.
The most impactful experience so far
while working on the Enhance
project is that I can learn from
other University partners from
many countries of how their system
teaching and learning process
The enhance project changed
the way my teaching involving
students to be more active and to
give them more problem based
learning and study case.
The main activity of enhance project in UB
is to enhance the curriculum
development of the urban and Regional
Master program to adequately address
humanitarian issues in the 21st century.
The dean of the faculty of engineering
consists of Miss Christia Meidiana,
who is also the chief of the Masters
Programme. Mr Surjono and Mr.
Adipandang Yudono
Hi my name is doctor Christia Meidiana.
I'm from Indonesia,
I work in Brawijaya University. I'm an associate
professor in Department of Urban and
Regional Planning, Faculty of Engineering.
My expertise in environmental technology
in this 4.0 industrial era.
I think the most crucial challenges
facing by many people is the climate
change influencing many sectors,
All nations in the world are
vulnerable toward the climate change.
Developing countries will be affected
worse since they are not well
equipped for mitigation and adaption.
Therefore it is a challenge
for me to contribute.
Actually responding to climate change
by delivering their lectures to the
students about the cause and effect of
the climate change and how we responded,
I hope it can contribute the attitude
and behavior change of my students.
to do things that can reduce the
cause of global warming.
My involvement in enhanced project has
broadened my mind about the climate action
in other countries of the project partner.
It was exciting when I have opportunity
to visit partners countries to experience
how the local people implement local
wisdom to live within healthy environment.
Mr Surjono
is an associate professor in urban
and regional planning Department,
Faculty of Engineering Universitas
Brawijaya his research is in
planning of poverty reduction,
urban planning and design
and development planning.
His role in the project is to
synchronize the new curriculum
development with the standards at
the University and national level.
Several courses that he teach match with
core issues of humanitarian engineering
such as poverty and social resilence,
resilient cities,
an urban management.
The scope and perspective proposed
by the enhance project has inspired
him to write reference book that
is one sustainable Earth, two habitat
three City and Community Resilience
livable city and resilient community,
all in Indonesian language.
He hopes that humanitarian engineering
can contribute to the development
of better world.
Mr Adipandang Yudono is from Indonesia,
He works in Brawijaya University.
He is an assistant professor in
Department of Urban and Regional Planning,
Faculty of Engineering.
My research interest is in graphical
information system or GIS smart cities,
special policy and special data
Sciences. In terms of challenge of
his role in University with a
humanitarian engineering is teaching
the mindset of student that focus
on technical things of GIS and
urban informatics to broaden up the way they're
Thinking to think the relevance
up their technical matters to
social and economic impacts in
urban and regional planning,
the most impactful experience so far.
While working the Enhance project
is cooperation and sharing with
international universities networking.
Therefore this case may open new
perspective in terms of conventional
engineering teaching tradition that transform
the current and future way. Due to Enhance Project his
teaching method has been involved
in humanitarian context to solve
urban and regional issues.
