Saturday, July 20th 2024, Nadya Ayu Anindita, ST as a Geotechnical Engineer from PT Geoforce Indonesia was one of the speakers at the 2024 Engineering for Teenagers event held by Tripatra.

Tripatra, in collaboration with various parties, organizes an innovative program known as Engineering for Teenagers in the Jabodetabek area, especially aimed at junior high school/equivalent students. This program is designed to introduce and expand their understanding of the world of engineering in a creative and fun way. Participants are not only invited to learn theory, but are also directly involved in simple practices of applied science, which helps increase their interest in this field.

One of the main aspects of this program is introducing participants to the engineering profession and how their role influences everyday life. Through a fun and inspiring learning experience, participants can see firsthand how engineering knowledge can be applied in real situations to solve problems around them, including challenges related to climate change and renewable energy.

Apart from that, this program also seeks to break gender stereotypes in the engineering profession by showing participants that engineering is a field that is open to anyone, regardless of gender. Thus, they are encouraged to explore their interests without social or gender restrictions.

In this program, participants not only gain technical knowledge and skills, but also gain valuable lessons about teamwork, problem solving, and creativity. It is hoped that this experience will give them a solid foundation to explore more deeply the world of engineering and perhaps encourage some of them to pursue careers in this field in the future.

A few times ago, The Faculty of Civil Engineering, Gadjah Mada University held a CIVIL INNOVATION CHALLENGE event. This activity invites students from all over Indonesia to participate in providing their best ideas to solve a problem based on civil and environmental engineering knowledge.

The theme of the 2024 Civil Innovation Challenge is "Innovative Solutions in Overcoming Land Problems in the Pre-Construction Stage for Sustainable Capital City Development" 

PT Geoforce Indonesia is proud to be one of the sponsors of the Civil Innovation Challenge, an event that highlights creativity and innovation in the field of civil engineering. PT Geoforce Indonesia's commitment to education and professional development is reflected through its support for the event, which aims to provide a platform for students and young professionals to develop smart solutions to infrastructure challenges and it doesn't stop there, Mr Dandung Sri Harninto, S.T., M.T , IPU, ASEAN Eng as President Director of PT Geoforce Indonesia was also present as one of the jury members at this event.

Don't miss the opportunity to bring your campus to participate in the "Geoforce Goes to Campus" program. Because this is a golden opportunity to gain direct knowledge about geosynthetics and be able to interact with Geotechnical experts

“Rahasia Sukses Bangun Bisnis dan Karier”

STUDYING BUSINESS, pursuing a career is not from campus but it is much more effective than a Success Story for those who have done it. Mr. Dandung Sri Harninto (UGM FT alumnus) with the Geoforce Indonesia flag; which he founded and built from a Start-Up into an Upper Middle Size Enterprise

Mr. Dandung S Harninto will share this together.  

Mr. Dandung Sri Harnito's company is related to  Engineering Technology as well as heavy equipment in the Geosentics sector to strengthen soil resilience and the strength of soil materials. 

How did Mr. Dandung Sri Harninto from "Zero", from Start-Up and then Growth become a Significant National Player in the High Tech Geosentik Segment?  There will definitely be many spiritual journeys that we can enjoy from sharing stories and tips. 

This event was hosted by Mohamad Khaleed, Kagama Muda/President of BEM UGM in 2022. The 33rd Kagama Business Incubation event was packaged in a casual Kagama Talks chat with the title “Close Together with Kagama”

On this occasion Mr Dandung Sri Harninto delivered a presentation on INOVAtion GEOSYNTHETIC EARTH RETAINING WALLS "GREEN CONSTRUCTION" WITH LOCAL PRODUCTS

Retaining walls using local geosynthetics are a clear example of how technological innovation can be a powerful force for sustainability. In this presentation, we will discuss the design process, construction and benefits of using this technology in depth. Apart from that, the positive impact it will have on the surrounding environment and surrounding communities will also be explained.

The use of local geosynthetics is not just a technological innovation, but also a symbol of the spirit of pride in domestic products. Through collaboration between government, industry and society, this innovation can be an important milestone in moving the construction sector in a more sustainable and inclusive direction.
