"This program has inspired me to keep learning, embrace new challenges, and continue pursuing opportunities to contribute through research and innovation. I am truly grateful for this unforgettable experience, and it will always remain an important milestone in my journey."

"My research project was recognized by FIKOM, supported me to go abroad all the way to Japan for an oral presentation, such a great opportunity with supportive environment. Wouldn’t have made it without challenging myself on to International Exposure. Pretty sure We’re actually quite competitive enough. Resources is all there in the Lab or FIKOM building, you just need to look and make use of it fully."

"Studying in Japan has always been one of my dreams, and joining the exchange program as a research student at Kyushu Institute of Technology made it come true. In Prof. Kazuhiro Takemoto’s lab I gained a lot of new knowledge, research experience, and insights into Japanese academic culture. The program also helped me grow personally, become more open minded, and meet amazing friends from different countries. It was such a fun and memorable experience overall. I had so much fun while I was there"

"During this program, i was given the chance to experience a whole new studying environment, where i get to establish international connections by networking with the students abroad, whilst conducting my research under the lab of Tanaka Kazuaki's robotic lab in Kyushu Institute of Technology, Japan. Outside of studies, i get the chance to explore the places in Japan and also go out with the friends i've made during my time in Japan to form a closer bond and create unforgettable memories with them together. It was truly a priceless and memorable experience for me, and i wish i could go back and experience all the moments again."

"Through this program, I gained a highly valuable experience and learned a great deal about how to adapt and survive in Japan. The student exchange program was not merely about traveling, but about fulfilling my responsibilities as a FIKOM student by conducting research in a laboratory at Kyushu Institute of Technology (KYUTECH) through discussions with my supervisor (Saitoh Sensei) and laboratory members. This experience enhanced my academic knowledge, research skills, presentation abilities, and communication skills. In addition, I developed cross-cultural understanding not only from Japan but also through interactions with international students from various countries such as Thailand, Malaysia, China, and others. This experience continues to motivate me to grow, contribute, and bring positive impact to myself and those around me."

"During this program, I gained a lot of experiences. From culture shock, research culture, diversity, living as a Muslim in a non-Muslim country, trying new foods and lifestyles, and many more that I cannot express. I hope that after participating in this activity, the experiences I have gained will serve as valuable lessons for my future. My advice to you is that you must and should participate in this program. You will gain experiences you will never forget. I would give it a score of 11/10."
