ASIATODAY.ID, OBNINSK — Rosatom State Corporation and Indonesia’s National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN) have agreed to expand their long-standing partnership to develop Indonesia’s next generation of nuclear professionals, marking a new phase of bilateral cooperation in science, research, and human capital development.
The agreement was reaffirmed during a meeting between Rosatom Deputy Director General for Human Resources Tatiana Terentyeva and BRIN Deputy for Human Resources in Science and Technology Edy Giri Rachman Putra on the sidelines of Obninsk Tech Nuclear Education Week 2026 in Obninsk, Russia on June 27.
Under the expanded partnership, the two organizations will strengthen cooperation in postgraduate education, researcher mobility, technical training, and joint academic programs, while jointly preparing a comprehensive roadmap for Indonesia’s long-term nuclear human resource development.
Rosatom said the collaboration has already produced several initiatives, including master’s and doctoral programs for Indonesian students at Tomsk Polytechnic University, joint human resource development programs, scientific exchanges, and Indonesia’s participation in major international nuclear forums.
Tatiana Terentyeva said the partnership has evolved beyond academic exchanges and is entering a more strategic stage focused on long-term implementation.
“Having established mutual trust, we are ready to move toward deeper discussions on strengthening implementation and jointly developing a comprehensive roadmap for Indonesia’s nuclear human resource development,” she said.
BRIN said nuclear science and radiation technology remain among Indonesia’s strategic research priorities under the National Talent Management framework. The agency is expanding master’s and doctoral scholarship programs, researcher mobility, and international collaboration through support from Lembaga Pengelola Dana Pendidikan (LPDP) and partner institutions overseas.
Indonesia is also broadening cooperation with leading Russian universities, including Lomonosov Moscow State University, National Research Nuclear University MEPhI, and Saint Petersburg State University, while continuing technical training with Rosatom Technical Academy and Tomsk Polytechnic University.
The Indonesia–Rosatom partnership began in 2015 and has since expanded from education and professional training into broader collaboration covering research, academic mobility, institutional capacity building, and long-term talent development.
The latest agreement underscores both countries’ commitment to strengthening cooperation in nuclear science and technology through sustained investment in education, research, and the development of highly skilled human resources. (AT Network)
