Academic Reputation

Universitas Airlangga (UNAIR) has initiated a program called "Sustainable Education for All" aimed to improve the relevance and eligibility of graduates. It is reflected from four indicators, first graduates' salary, waiting period to be hired, graduates' work eligibility, and graduates' ability to create more jobs. It is an effort to improve the university's reputation among academics and graduate competence's relevance to the current industries. This program is supported by the implementation of Inter-Professional Education (IPE) and Outcome-Based Education (OBE).

Inter-Professional Education (IPE) is aimed to make students ready to work in a collaborative inter-professional environment. It has been implemented in the Faculty of Medicine since 2016. Most participants for IPE activities were achieved in 2019 with 870 students. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, 116 activities were still held in 2020, and in 2021, they are held online. The IPE activities have shown collaboration reinforcement among students in improving their knowledge and skills to achieve predetermined targets.

In terms of the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) approach, a learning strategy is developed based on projects and evidence. It is supported by the technological advancement as lectures are conducted through three ways of learning; online learning, hybrid learning and blended learning. Online learning is done synchronously and asynchronously. For the first semester of the 2020/2021 Academic Year, synchronous learning is held through 551 Virtual Classrooms used for 19,285 classes per week and 1 VC used for 83 webinars. The asynchronous learning is implemented through various methods, including the use of Learning Management System (LMS).

The teaching and learning activities utilizing technology are conducted through Learning Management System (LMS) and Massive Online Open Course (MOOC). LMS is accessible through the website: (AULA) and a mobile app: Airlangga Learning in Mobile App (). LMS makes it easier for lecturers and students to do teaching and learning activities because it has useful features such as material sharing, discussion forums, and evaluation. is about UNAIR learning materials accessible to the public. MOOC has provided 150 easily accessed learning materials in various topics.

Research Excellence

UNAIR also initiated a program called "Meaningful Research and Community Services" focused on providing meaningful efforts for the community through research and community services. Research excellence achieved in life science is the production of allergen extract, Bovine Hydroxyapatite (BHA), and Artemia culture. In health research, Universitas Airlangga excels in infectious diseases' research, including rotavirus, noroviruses (viral diarrhea), HIV, and antimicrobial infection. Amid the Covid-19 pandemic, UNAIR also takes parts in Sars-Cov-2 research by developing the Covid-19 vaccine called Vaksin Merah Putih. In social sciences, UNAIR actively answers social problems in society by providing counsel and conducting research-based community development activities.

Allergy problems inspired allergen extract production by the university. The prevalence of allergic diseases such as dust mite-caused asthma, pollen allergies, and food allergies is rising globally, especially in developed countries, due to genetic and environmental factors.? Therefore, Universitas Airlangga, in collaboration with Dr. Soetomo Hospital and PT Biofarma, has developed Allergen Extract Teaching Industry. It is an effort to realize local allergen production to improve public health quality and increase the state revenue. This facility received University Innovation Funding from Indonesian Ministry of Research, Technology and ÖйúAƬ in 2019.

Another innovation in the field of research is cow bone utilization as a source of hydroxyapatite or Bovine Hydroxyapatite (BHA). There is a great demand of hydroxyapatite and it is also potential and has a good prospect to be developed because the raw material is abundant in East Java. The BHA component is proven to be biodegradable and biocompatible, useful for bone graft and bone regeneration. The innovation has been patented and its teaching industry has been built. In 2021, BHA Teaching Industry is expected to start production under the management of PT Inovasi Bioproduk Indonesia (PT INOBI), a startup of UNAIR and a subsidiary of PT. Dharma Putra Airlangga as the Holding Company owned by Universitas Airlangga.

UNAIR has also made an innovation on Artemia, a group of crustaceans from phylum Arthopoda, also known as brine shrimp. Artemia is a type of natural feed that is indispensable in the business of shrimp and fish hatcheries. However, Indonesia still imports it and it is expensive. Based on information from Indonesian Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries, the imported Artemia cysts reach at least 40 tons. Universitas Airlangga's research aims at engineering Artemia cultivation which produces superior Artemia while at the same time improving the quality of salt in salt ponds. This research will produce two products, Artemia cysts and industrial salts. Artemia cysts are needed in fish/shrimp hatcheries as the main feed. There is a great demand for Artemia cysts from fish/shrimp hatcheries in Indonesia and it is still imported from several countries such as The USA, China, and European countries. With vast natural resources such as salt ponds, Indonesia must be directed to produce Artemia cysts and industrial salt to meet its market demand. These research results are expected to reduce and even stop fish/shrimp farmers' dependence on imported Artemia cyst products.

Some other university's innovations have been developed into teaching industry units and commercial academic products:

• Metabolit Stem Cell, anti-aging stem cell product
• Seaweed Capsule Shell, transparent capsule shell as drug delivery system
• Excelzyme-1, Excelzyme-2, and Excelzyme-3, environmental-friendly bioproducts used for biodeinking process, improving ruminant cattle productivity from the feed and improving the quality of organic fertilizer, respectively
• BIO KSB-1, microorganism used as industrial liquid waste management
• NONIKIT, hydroquinone detecting kit
• Dentolaser, effective antimicrobial therapy and cell biomodulation tool
• Various herbal medicine products, such as Meditea, Diabetkol, Pro-Slimpid and many other products

There are also innovations on Active Biomolecular Development based on New Chemical Entity, Bio-resource Technology with advanced functionality enzyme-based material, and research on microorganism biodiversity and its application for germplasm conservation.

All of those innovations are made for the benefit of the community. Thus, research can be developed in line with community service. The research is conducted in collaboration with the government, industry, and other institutions or universities.? As an effort towards impactful research development, for the last couple of years, Universitas Airlangga has collaborated with 19 universities from 9 countries through World University Association for Community Development (WUACD). UNAIR also expands its collaboration network by joining international communities such as ASEA-UNINET consortium and organizing LUMINAIRe with ATU-NET. Therefore, UNAIR will gain more opportunities to engage in research and community services with global impacts.
