UGM Architecture study programme received another study visit on Thursday (26/1). This time, the field study came from Universitas Halu Uleo (UHO), Kendari. The visit with the theme “Green Smart Building & Culture” also aims to study the new building of the Faculty of Engineering, the SGLC building. The group of UHO students and lecturers were then received by Dr. Ahmad Nasikun, S.T., M.Sc. as the Manager of Student Affairs of the Faculty of Engineering and Nur Zahrotunnisaa Zagi, S.T., M.T. as a representative of Architecture.
The event, which took place in one of the SGLC meeting rooms, had started at 09.00 with remarks by Mr Nasikun and Mrs Santi as representatives of Halu Uleo University. After that, there was an exchange of plaques as a memento from both parties. Then entered the core event, namely the description of the Faculty of Engineering and the SGLC building by Mr Nasikun. Followed by an explanation of the Architecture programme by Mrs Ica. UHO friends seemed enthusiastic about hearing the explanation of Mr Nasikun and Mrs Ica while asking various questions about the Faculty of Engineering, Architecture, and the SGLC building.
Towards 11.00 am, Dr Ir. Inggar Septhia Irawati, S.T., M.T., IPM. took the time to join together. Mrs Inggar as the Asset Manager of the Faculty of Engineering gave an in-depth explanation about the SGLC building, especially about the Green Building certification that has been obtained. According to Mrs Inggar, various design considerations and building systems were things that were very much considered when the construction of SGLC in order to get the certification.
At the end of the event, a group photo session was held in front of the SGLC building. The event then continued with a visit to the DTAP campus to see the work of UGM Architecture friends such as the work of DORXLAB and studio work.
The whole event ended with a group photo in front of DTAP’s red bricks. Thus ended the visit from the UHO Architecture programme. Hopefully the knowledge gained can be useful for the progress of the joint architecture programme and it is hoped that cooperation and good relations will continue between UGM Architecture and UHO Architecture in the future.
