UGM- Key Aspects
• This was a pilot progam for ADS• The most difficult step was the mapping of units• A Technical document was needed for Indonesian funding• Funding was available through BAPENNAS/AUSAID• This agreement has lapsed and some effort has been expended in
remapping the units.• Due to loss of funding the continuation of this agreement has been
delayed.

THE FUTURE- ALLIANCES
Aberdeen Curtin Global AllianceJoint Research Projects
The Aberdeen-Curtin Alliance draws on the complementary strengths of both universities to deliver high-impact research and innovative teaching programs across four themes of mutual interest: Engineering and Energy, Medicine and Health Sciences, Creative Arts, and Business.
In 2017, the Alliance has twelve significant jointly supervised research projects underway. Students will spend time at each institution and will be supervised by both Aberdeen and Curtin research staff.
The success of the collaborative PhD program is projected to support 36 PhD students on a full scholarship to undertake a jointly supervised research project by 2019.
Aberdeen Curtin Global AllianceMaster of Science (Global Subsea Engineering)
The Master of Science (Global Subsea Engineering) course offers a unique opportunity for students to engage in an internationally collaborative environment centred around two major oil and gas hubs: Aberdeen, Scotland and Perth, Western Australia.
The 14 month joint masters program draws on the niche expertise of the University of Aberdeen and Curtin University in the field of subsea engineering and offers students a seamless global education experience where students spend time at each institution.
On the successful completion of the course students will be awarded a degree recognising their study at both institutions.
Students can commence the course in either Aberdeen or Scotland.
Aberdeen Curtin Global AllianceMaster of Science (Global Subsea Engineering)- Course Structure
In the second year of study students undertake a research project supervised jointly by Aberdeen and Curtin. This may entail an industry-sponsored topic, providing an opportunity to connect with companies in both Perth and Aberdeen and gain international experience and recognition

THE FUTURE - CONSORTIA
The ATN operates as a genuinely collaborative consortia with national coverage.
Collectively and individually, we are committed to forging partnerships with industry, the professions and government.
ATN Universities
ATN Principles of Engagement
• Adding value above and beyond what can be achieved at an institutional level
• Knowledge and resource sharing, especially in an uncertain funding environment
• Strategic focus on professional skills development
Western Australia East Java University Consortium
• Follow up action after the visit of WA Minister for Education in 2016• Various programs to support both WA and EJ Priority areas including student
mobility• Co-Chairs from WA and EJ• Supported by WA State government And East Java government as part of sister-
state agreement• To be launched in September 2017 by Minister for Asian Engagement
Challenges
• Dealing with English language requirements of courses in Australia for Indonesians and non-English speaking students to enter directly (English bridging courses are needed)
• Multiple Ministries in Indonesia are involved in education (Health, Education, Research Technology and Higher Education, Religious Affairs, Domestic Affairs, Bappenas)
• Different fee structures in other countries make it hard to be competitive• Biased stipend structures • Difficulties in curriculum mapping (different ‘SKS’ system)• Quality control management – how to reach agreement
Lessons Learnt• Partnership is not only about agreement signed • Important to share students’ progress report• Try to create joint goals rather than two sets for one-sided goals
Opportunities Looking Forward• Strengthening existing partnerships with university partners and Indonesian
government, example tripartite agreement with LPDP ; ATN with Ministry of Research Technology and Higher Education and Ministry of Religious Affairs
• Fewer deep and broader agreements rather than large volume of agreements • Working together towards developing joint stackable credentials• Working with consortia and setting up significant long-term alliances with global
partners
