The event successfully engaged students, youths, and general visitors through an interactive concept. Ultimately, this exhibition aimed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the major while attracting prospective students through an applicable approach.

Engaging Visitors Through the Industrial Engineering EXPO FTI Booth

At the booth area, students took an active role in sharing information with visitors. They shared deep insights regarding academic disciplines, campus facilities, and future career prospects. Visitors also explored various informative media and interacted directly with current students to understand real-world applications. This direct interaction effectively helped visitors realize that the Industrial Engineering EXPO FTI presentation covers a broad spectrum and remains highly relevant to modern industrial needs.

Insightful Academic Talk Shows by Industrial Engineering UII

As part of the talk show series, UII presented student representatives from various backgrounds, including laboratory assistants and International Program students. They introduced academic activities, laboratory practicums, and various programs designed to support student competence development. In addition to sharing their student experiences, the laboratory assistants actively introduced scientific concepts and the practical benefits of their facilities.

Gerren Satrio Hariyudho explained the Design of Work Systems and Ergonomics (DSKE) Laboratory. He covered everything from practicum activities and facilities to the application of ergonomics in the workplace. Furthermore, he demonstrated the use of a handgrip dynamometer, which serves as an instrument to analyze human physical capabilities.

“Through the introduction of the DSKE Laboratory and ergonomics, we want to show that Industrial Engineering is not just theoretical. It is highly applicable and relevant to workforce needs,” Gerren stated.

He also added that the role of lab assistants is a key advantage in supporting student competency.

On the other hand, Bimi Wirabumi explained the crucial role of the Manufacturing Systems Laboratory in supporting practical learning for students. He emphasized that the available facilities provide real-world experience for students to grasp production processes and industrial systems.

“Our main goal at this EXPO is to introduce Industrial Engineering UII to the wider community, especially through our complete laboratory facilities that fully support hands-on learning,” Bimi explained.

Overall, the Industrial Engineering EXPO FTI activities proved to be an effective medium to showcase academic excellence. At the same time, it successfully boosted prospective students’ interest in joining the university.
