To support the implementation of Tri Dharma of Higher Education (education, research, community service), Vocational College UGM has been and continues to collaborate with various educational and industrial institutions overseas. We exchange ideas, create and develop collaborative programs with our overseas partners to increase the capacity and skills of students and lecturers. For us, foreign partners also help improve the quantity and quality of scientific writings and joint research outputs. Besides, some of the partners provide internship and Master’s Degree programs for our graduates. Most importantly, overseas partners support us to become a leading and international-class vocational higher education institution.
