In this ACA, the Bachelor and Master of Mechanical Engineering concentration of Mechatronics will conduct a class of 29 selected lecturers from ATMI with a D3 in Engineering background to follow a program of Bachelor-Master (BaMa). The BaMa program will be a single degree with English as the academic language. During the program students will be exposed to academic and non-academic activities. It is expected that after students follow the whole BaMa program, their competence will increase so that they will be ready to compete in the new landscape of competition such as free flow of human, workforce, services, investment, etc. in the region especially in the Asean Economic Community (AEC).
