On Thursday (10/10) the Department of Industrial Engineering, Faculty of Industrial Technology, Universitas Islam Indonesia  collaborated with PT Yamaha Indonesia in an industrial internship program. This collaboration began with a seminar that presented two main speakers, namely Muhammad Isnaini from the HRD Manager of PT Yamaha Indonesia and M. Syahfatahillah from the Production Engineering Manager of PT Yamaha Indonesia.

The seminar took place at the 3rd floor Auditorium of K.H. Mas Mansur Building and started at 13.30 WIB. Wahyudhi Sutrisno, S.T., M.M., M.T acted as the host, while Yuli Agusti Rochman, S.T., M.Eng. gave the opening remarks. In his speech, Yuli Agusti Rochman expressed his appreciation to Yamaha. “Congratulations for this afternoon’s study. Once again, we would like to thank Yamaha for attending this afternoon and sharing with all of us,” he said.

After the speech, Muhammad Isnaini opened the public lecture session. He explained his career journey which began in Japan until in 2021 he decided to return to Indonesia to join the HRD of PT Yamaha Indonesia. In his current position, Isnaini continues to learn to understand various aspects related to human resources and the rules of the internship program at PT Yamaha Indonesia.

Muhammad Isnaini also explained that the internship program at PT Yamaha Indonesia has been running for eight years and has now reached its 18th batch. This program was first initiated by the previous HRD manager, Pak Kausar. However, Isnaini admits that the internship duration of only three months is often not enough to provide adequate industrial experience and competence for students. In addition, the company also felt that short internships could disrupt industrial activities.

Therefore, through the MOU cooperation between UII and PT Yamaha Indonesia, the duration of the internship program was extended to six months. This extension is expected to provide more in-depth experience for students and reduce disruption to industrial activities. This internship program can also be converted into semester credit units (SKS), so that students not only gain industrial experience but can also fulfill academic requirements. In addition, Isnaini highlighted that the internship at PT Yamaha focuses not only on developing hard skills, such as technical understanding and industrial practices, but also on soft skills, including communication skills, teamwork, and leadership.

The seminar was closed with an interactive Q&A session, where students discussed further about the internship program and career opportunities at PT Yamaha Indonesia. The speakers answered various questions enthusiastically, providing comprehensive explanations and motivation for the participants. After the Q&A session, the event ended with a group photo between the speakers, lecturers, and students, creating a warm moment of togetherness to conclude the event.
