This activity is an international workshop entitled “PROMOTE: Promote the Utilisation of Low-carbon Concrete through Performance Testing”.
ITS to Establish Cooperation with the British Embassy
ITS continues to widen its network of cooperation, both nationally and internationally. It was proven by the acceptance of a delegation visit of the British Embassy led by Deputy Ambassador, Rob Fenn at ITS Rectorate Building. This visit discusses the cooperation in the field of education and research.
ITS and TU Berlin’s Collaboration on Sustainable City Development
ITS once again takes on a role on sustainable city development and the development of civilization. This time, through the International Seminar entitled “Conscious City: Sustainable and Equitable City-Making”. ITS in collaboration with Technische Universität (TU) Berlin discusses the concept of Smart City and a new idea, namely “Conscious City” in the Main Meeting Room of the ITS Rectorate.
ITS International Cooperation in Renewable Energy
ITS supports international cooperation in renewable energy research from three countries, namely Indonesia, Malaysia and the UK in the ITS Rectorate. ITS is appointed as the host by the Global Challenge Research Fund (GCRF) through Queen Mary University of London (QMUL), United Kingdom. This event is attended by Prof. Alan Drew from QMUL as the project leader of GCRF.

PDPM as the Implementation of ITS Social Responsibility
In essence, every person, group and organization has a social responsibility. This responsibility is in the form of ethics and the ability to do good to the environment based on the rules, values and needs of the community. The implementation of ITS social responsibility is through a community empowerment program launched by the Center for Study of Regional Potential and Community Service (PDPM). PDPM was formed to conduct research, training, and assistance in various aspects of development that are directly related to the community. At least, there are four major agendas of PDPM including, research as well as community service, service, training, and mentoring.
ITS Students Invites Surrounding Communities to Celebrates Worlds Water Day
Water is one of the most vital aspects of human life. Therefore, students of the Department of Environmental Engineering of ITS present an event entitled “Paling Berseri” which involved communities participation in it. The event, which was realized in order to celebrate World Water Day, was successfully held at the Kampung Pacar Keling, Surabaya. This event aims to raise public awareness of water conservation.
ITS Lecturers Organize a Training of Waste Management to Communities
The increase in population is followed by an increase in the amount of waste that is harmful to the environment. If not treated properly, the waste can trigger disasters for nature and human life. For this reason, ITS lecturers who are members of the Community Service (Abmas) activity, organize training activities on waste management to reduce the amount of Surabaya waste that has not been processed. Since the waste management in Surabaya is still limited to collection and ends up piling up in the Final Disposal Site (TPA). Therefore, there is should be an improvement of waste management process from transportation to processing the waste.
