The University of Manchester is a merger of Victoria University of Manchester and the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST).
“He has done a lot of research in several countries, both in Europe and Asia, and I hope UNEJ, in this case FMIPA, can join in his research,” continued Prof. Bambang. A similar thing was also conveyed by the Dean of FMIPA UNEJ, Prof. Drs. Dafik, M.Sc., Ph.D., who welcomed the arrival of Prof. Krishna to encourage FMIPA lecturers to do joint research. “Prof. Krishna has a very good track record, as can be seen from his Scopus, so I invite lecturers to join in his research,” invited Prof. Dafik, who is also an alumnus of UMIST.
In his presentation, Prof. Krishna told about several research projects that have been conducted in several parts of the world. “I have done many things on several continents to conduct research with university researchers there,” he said. It was said that there were also several long studies with several countries, such as Japan and China. The Professor Emeritus of the University of Manchester gave opportunities to researchers from each country to join him.
“Some of my research may intersect with researchers here, so there will be opportunities, for example, with one of the lecturers of FMIPA Su’udi, Ph.D.,” he continued. Several lecturers of FMIPA UNEJ who were present told about several of their research experiences that could provide opportunities to join Prof. Krishna. His activities at FMIPA will continue tomorrow with a guest lecture event at the Chemistry Department of FMIPA UNEJ with the theme “Current Trends in Sensors Research and Development.”.
