The Indonesia Higher Education Expo 2024, held from October 24 to 26 at the Indonesian Cultural Center in Dili, Timor Leste, successfully showcased a diverse range of educational opportunities offered by Indonesian universities. The event provided a platform for students from Timor Leste to explore higher education options in Indonesia, a country renowned for its academic excellence and vibrant cultural environment.

Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta (UMS) proudly participated in the expo, highlighting the university’s commitment to global education and fostering international student engagement. The event drew a strong response from the people of Timor Leste, many of whom expressed great interest in pursuing their higher education in Indonesia, particularly at UMS.

UMS representatives engaged with prospective students, offering detailed information about the university’s programs, admission procedures, and the enriching student experience. Visitors had the opportunity to interact with faculty members and alumni, gaining valuable insights into life at UMS and the unique opportunities it offers for personal and academic growth.

The expo not only emphasized the educational opportunities available in Indonesia but also strengthened the bonds of cooperation and cultural exchange between Indonesia and Timor Leste. It is expected that such events will continue to pave the way for greater academic collaboration and create more opportunities for students in the region.
