Nilai – The Faculty of Psychology, Universitas Diponegoro (UNDIP), continues to accelerate its internationalization steps through active participation in the 2026 2nd Bilateral PSYCHE Summer Course organized by INTI University & College, Malaysia. The event, held offline from June 28 to July 5, 2026, served as a platform for the UNDIP Faculty of Psychology delegate, represented by Dito Aryo Prabowo, S.Psi., M.Psi., to expand academic networks, facilitate student exchange, and explore international research collaborations in the Southeast Asian region.
During the academic visit, the UNDIP Faculty of Psychology lecturer delegate took on a dual role as a guest lecturer and companion to 25 students. The pinnacle of the academic activities took place on Wednesday, July 1, 2026, delivering an interactive guest lecture titled “Assessing Entrepreneurial Readiness among College Students in Indonesia” to postgraduate students and teaching staff of INTI University. This expert class was directly facilitated by a local academic, Prof. Walton Wider, and sparked an in-depth scholarly discussion regarding psychological measurement instruments in the context of research and entrepreneurship.
Besides sharing knowledge in the classroom, Mr. Dito also initiated a series of intensive research engagements with academics from the Faculty of Business and Communications and the Faculty of Education and Liberal Arts. These meetings also involved further discussions with the Dean of the Faculty of Education and Liberal Arts, Dr. Rabindra, focusing on mapping research interests and resulting in preliminary agreements for joint research grant proposals and reputable scientific publications. Throughout the week, the summer course agenda was also filled with capacity-building activities for researchers, such as a Bibliometric Analysis Workshop, a Physiotherapy workshop, and a Cultural and Social Diversity workshop.
The participation of the academic community in the 2026 2nd Bilateral PSYCHE Summer Course aligns with the achievement of the University’s Key Performance Indicators (IKU), while solidifying the steps of the Faculty of Psychology UNDIP as a globally competitive center of excellence.
