On 8-12 March 2015, the Industrial Engineering department of UPH sent 2 teams to compete in the 15th LKTI (Lomba Keilmuan Teknik Industri), an academic event held by the industrial engineering student body of Universitas Indonesia. This year LKTI had the theme “Increasing the Competitiveness of Gas Based Industry to Support Energy Security through Strategic Management”.

 

Earlier this year, the two teams from UPH passed through the preliminary stage and managed to enter the top 25. The competition consisted of three stages. The first stage evaluated the competence of the contestants in the field of industrial engineering. In the second stage, a simulation game was presented and the contestants competed to achieve the best score in the simulation.

 

After the first two stages, the score of each team was accumulated and the 5 best teams were chosen to compete in the final stage. The first team from UPH sat in 5th place at this point and earned the right to compete in the final stage, while the second team from UPH managed to obtain 16th place and was eliminated. The third stage was then held in the form of presentations. The teams were given time to formulate their solutions and recommendations regarding the gas industry in Indonesia.

 

The winner was announced on the afternoon after the presentation. Praise the Lord for His Grace, the first team from UPH was able to earn in the third place, while first and second place were taken by the teams from the Institute of Technology 10 November and Universitas Kristen Petra, respectively.
