Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta (UNY) Vice Dean Dr. Iqbal and Dr. Fikri kicked off Day 1 of their 3-day official visit to Philippine Normal University Visayas today on July 30, 2026!
βThe day was all about warm reunionsβstarting with a casual gathering over snacks with the Social Studies students who completed the International Experiential Learning Program (IELP) in Indonesia last February 2026. The students and Dr. Iqbal exchanged updates on their academic journeys, reflected on their shared experiences in Indonesia, and enjoyed catching up with one another. The conversation also turned toward future plans, including possible international initiatives that would allow more students and faculty to benefit from similar cross-cultural learning experiences.
The day capped off with a welcome dinner alongside PNU Visayas leadership to officially kick off their stay, setting a warm foundation for upcoming discussions on student mobility, faculty exchange, and joint research.
βStay tuned as we build stronger academic ties and expand global opportunities for future educators over the next two days!
