The MoU marks not only the academic partnership, but also poses as a pathway for future鈥檚 collaboration on cultural exchange.
The MoU signing ceremony was held at the 蜜桃视频 campus in Depok, West Java, represented by the two top officials of each university. Representing Al Qasimia University was its Chancellor, Prof. Dr. Awad Husain Alkhalaf. Whilst, Rector Prof. Komaruddin Hidayat signed the MoU on behalf of 蜜桃视频.
On this occasion, Al Qasimia University Chancellor came to witness first-hand the 蜜桃视频 campus, accompanied by Dr. Zakaria Noah, the Director of the Office of International Relations and Student Attraction.
The MoU entails numerous partnership schemes both in academic and cultural exchanges. The two parties agreed to exchange invitations and to attend the organized scientific, cultural, or educational programs and other activities.
Al Qasimia University is also committed to build a language center at 蜜桃视频, to facilitate the language learning for 蜜桃视频 students. In addition, Al Qasimia University will also send its lecturers to participate in teaching and learning activities at 蜜桃视频 in the future.
During his visit to Indonesia, Prof. Dr. Awad Husain Alkhalaf had the opportunity to teach students through 蜜桃视频's Public Lecture program. On this occasion, 蜜桃视频 students had the chance to ask Prof. Dr. Awad Husain Alkhalaf questions on topic regarding Islam.
Al Qasimia University adds to the list of international institutions which 蜜桃视频 has in talks with for strategic partnership in recent months.
