Message from AUN Secretariat
On behalf of the ASEAN University Network (AUN), it is with great pleasure to congratulate AUN/SEED-Net to have accomplished so much over the year.
AUN/SEED-Net has contributed an immense amount of effort to create high qualifiedgraduatesbyutilizingtheirfullpotential.Thus,strengtheningthebondbetween different institutions enhancing academic network and technological capabilities throughout the year. It is important to note that without the provision of scholarships, academic assistances and grants by the Japanese government through Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) and Japanese supporting universities, it would not have been possible to attain network establishment and faculty development.
In accordance with the signing of the AUN/SEED-Net Cooperative Framework in phase III, advancement in technology has never been more important. It has assisted in the development of sustainable engineering education and research between institutions in ASEAN and Japan. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate the AUN/SEED-Net for their hard efforts and contributions in tackling regional common issues through the exchanging of knowledge and technological trends with member institutions. We hope to strengthen our partnership with Japan and look forward to entering the next phase alongside each other.
At the 2nd ASEAN+3 Education Ministers Meeting, held in Vientiane, Lao PDR on 12th September 2014, AUN/SEED-Net was viewed to be instrumental in the promotion of Human Resource Development and Mobility through the various projectsandinitiativesthatwereorganized.
It is with great pride to be part of this effort; AUN will stand ready to continue our supporting role in creating competitive members and sustainable development of higher education and look forward to ongoing collaborations with Japan.

Message from Director General, Human Development Department, JICA HQs
In 2001, the ASEAN University Network/ Southeast Asia Engineering Education Development Network (AUN/SEED-Net) was established as a platform for
upgrading higher engineering education in ASEAN. It was based on the rigid belief that innovativeandhighlyqualifiedhumanresourcesinengineeringfieldwereindispensablefor sustainable economic development of societies in ASEAN which had been hit by Asian currency crisis in the late 1990s.
As pioneer of regional cooperation serving for multiple countries, the AUN/SEED-Net experienced various kinds of trial and error at its initial stage. However, supported by active participation of ASEAN member institutions and consuming dedication of Japanese supporting universities, it has made remarkable achievements in forming the foundation of academic network through the past phases between 2001 and 2013. Now, the AUN/SEED-Net is deemed as one of the most prominent regional cooperation projects because of its high ideal, long history, and large-scale operations.
The mission of the Phase 3 started in March 2013 is “Expansion and Deepening of the network”. To this end, several initiatives were newly employed such as: Nine ASEAN member institutions and three Japanese supporting universities joined the network to involve prestigious institutions/universities more; “Multi-hosting system” was introduced to encourage competition among hosting institutions in senior ASEAN countries; and “University-Industry Collaboration” became one of the main targets to be achieved to enhance universities’ contribution to the society. The year 2013-2014 was particularly important period for putting these new initiatives back on track, and ended with success except for some challenges to be considered at the remaining project period. I do believe these efforts will be a stimulus to bring much more dynamic and extensive output than ever before.
The Year 2015 is time for ASEAN integration. JICA is fully committed to support the establishment of ASEAN community through enhancing physical, Institutional, and people-to-people connectivity.On top of generating highly qualified humanresourcesinengineeringfield,theAUN/SEED-Nethasfosteredthespiritofmutualcooperation among ASEAN member institutions and trust relationship between ASEAN member institutions and Japanese supporting universities. This means that the AUN/SEED-Net has played a very important role in enhancing people-to-people connectivity and will continue to.
Lastly, since the Phase 3willmark the halfway point for the five-year periodofcooperation in 2015, a mid-term review is scheduled for this year. At the review, in additiontonecessarymeasuresformoreeffectiveandefficientimplementationofthe Phase 3, the future vision of the AUN/SEED-Net will be discussed toward further contribution to ASEAN integration and stronger tie between ASEAN and Japan. I would like to ask for your active participation in the discussion as well as continued support to daily activities.

At KMITL, I had a great opportunity to work in a warm laboratory with my advisor, Asst. Prof. Dr. Panarat Chernthanomwong, who introducedmetotheWirelessCommunicationfield,thatIfoundgreatinterest.StayinginThailandwasabitdifficultatfirst,butthekind and enjoyable atmosphere from both international and Thai students had helped me to gradually adapt to this new environ-ment as well as to improve my English, both communication and writing skill. Besides, there were some special activities prepared by International College and Faculty of Engineering where all international students learned about Thai traditional activities and culture. It was a good time to make friends and enjoy with the social life in Thailand. One of the most memorable experiences was at “ASEAN Cultural Festival” in 2012 where I was invited to be a presenter ofLaoculturewithotherASEANstudents.Itwasmyfirsttimetostandonthestagewithmypartnertobeasked about Lao culture. I felt excited and happy.
After graduation in May 2013, my life has completedly changed. I came back to Lao PDR on 30th May 2013, and started to be an As-sistance Lecturer at National University of Laos (NUOL), Faculty of Engineering, Department of Computer Engineering and Information Technology.
From that day until now, I have carried on my research since graduate years, and been participating in various academic activities and program under the support of AUN/SEED-Net; for example, academic regional conference: RCCIE 2013 in Bangkok, where I was invited to be a speaker with my accepted research paper, and also coming RCCIE 2014 in Yogyakarta, and for mobility programs: I plan to participate, SRJP 2014 and SVAS 2014, which would allow me to revisit my co-advisor, Prof. Dr. Jun-Ichi Takada, and meet otherprofessorsandfriendsinthesamefield,workinginthewarmlaboratorywithprofessionaland friendly researcher-peers. Without the support of AUN/SEED-Net, I would not have been to where I am. This support has enriched my personal growth and academic life as an Assistance Lecturer at NUOL.

Experience studying at USM, Malaysia
First of all I would like to introduce myself, my name is KRY Nallis. Currently, I am a head of Geo-resources and Geotechnical Engineering department at Institute of Technology of Cambodia (ITC). I am very glad to be given a chance to share my experience of doing my Master degree and PhD at Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM).
In 2007, I was awarded for Master Degree Program scholarship under AUN/SEED-Net Program to study at USM,MalaysiainthefieldofMaterialsEngineering.AftercompletionofmyMasterDegree,Iwasawardedagainfor Ph.D scholarship to study at USM under the support of AUN/SEED-Net Program. During my study at USM, Ilearnednotonlyengineeringfieldbutalsothecultureofthiscountry,theirworkingstyleandIwasexposedin the country where the people have different ethnicity but they can live together peacefully. Malaysian people are very friendly and helpful. For me, I would say that doing Master degree and Ph.D. were not easy, there were many challenges in my study life over there but I was happy as I am not alone. I was surrounded by all the knowledgeable people from different countries who are willing to share and help each other. Doing my master degree and Ph.D at USM were a great chance for me to gain more knowledge, to get my degrees, to conduct the research, to explore this country and especially to know more people from different countries
in the world with the same and different field of study.Together with them, I experienced many things such as how to adapt myself with the people with different culture, food and religion and how to enjoy with them. It was such a great experience that I would never know if I was not givenachancetostudyabroad.AtfirstwhenIjustarrivedto USM, I felt lonely and homesick, I think almost all the students who had experience studying abroad would feel the same as me. But after I got to know more people and I started my research, I felt happy to stay there that is why I decided to further my study to Ph.D.
During the scholarship period, I also visited Tokyo Institute of Technology (TIT) under the attachment study program for Ph.D. scholar called Short-Term Study in Japan (SSJP). That was the time that I experienced not only different culture, food and religion but also the weather. I also learned a lotofthingsbesidesengineeringfieldwhenIwasinJapan.Ilearnedabouttheir good attitude toward others, their punctuality and their working style.
Finally, I would like to extend my sincere thanks and appreciation to AUN/SEED-Net for giving me a chance to further my study to Master’s degree and Ph.D. Without the support from this program, I would not haveachanceto learnbothhardskills (Engineeringfield)andsoftskills (Management and leadership skills) which I am applying them in my current job as a head department.

Capacity Development for University – Industry Collaboration
In one of AUN/SEED-Net’s many initiatives to enhance University-Industry Collaboration at Member Institutions (MI), 2 intensive training programs are held with different targets in mind. Firstly, the Intensive Course on Management ofTechnology (MOT) aims to foster young academic staff atMIs to become highly-qualifiedresearchers with the intention of contributing to industry by providing participants with the basic understanding ofthreefundamentaltopicsofMOT:IntellectualPropertyRights,Marketing,andManagingInnovation.ThefirstAUN/SEED-Net Intensive MOT course was conducted at JICA Tokyo International Centre, Tokyo, Japan, from 18 – 31 August 2013, with the kind support of Shibaura Institute of Technology.
Later on in JFY 2013, the second type of training was conducted, namely, Intensive Training on Promotion for University - Industry Linkage on 4 – 16 November 2013. This training program was conducted with the cooperation of Toyohashi University of Technology (TUT) in Toyohashi, Japan, and is open to the faculty staff who are responsible to promote U-I linkage activities in their respective MIs. As a pilot stage of the program in 2013, the training was open to MIs in four countries: Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. Through a series of practical case studies, discussion and exchanging viewpoints regarding actual implementation of U-I linkage activities at TUT, the participants strengthened their capacity to develop and improve the conditions for U-I linkage in his or her own MI.
Not only did they visit laboratories and discuss with TUT professors in order to learn how to formulate effective andefficientU-I linkageactivities,butmost importantly,theparticipantshadtheopportunitytovisitsomelocal companies who have collaborative research activities with TUT as case studies. During the training, the participantsalsoattendedtheOpenForumorganizedbyInternationalCooperationCenterforEngineeringEducation Development (ICCEED), TUT, where they had the opportunity to introduce the R&D capabilities of their respective MIs and present the possibilities of U-I linkage to invited Japanese companies.

Capacity Development for University – Industry Collaboration
As the AUN/SEED-Net’s U-I coordinator for Kasetsart University, attending the intensive training course on the Promotion of University-Industry (U-I) Linkages at Toyohashi University of Technology (TUT) during 4-16 November 2013 was a great experience, in both academic and social respects. The schedule involved various types of activities, including factory tours, university laboratory visits, and several enlightening lectures. In particular, I enjoyed the lectures about strategies on how to initiate and deepen U-I linkages from both the university’s point of view and industry’s requirements. I was very impressed to witness the successful U-I collaborations that professors from TUT have established with various industrial sectors. I could sense the hard effort, enthusiasm and perseverance shown by both sides to achieve their mutual research objectives.
Moreover, I made new friends and professional networks from Japan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, and Thailand. Some discussions I had with other participants during thetrainingsessionswereextremelybeneficial.Theseresulted in several new ideas which I could subsequently implement at my university. Finally, I would like to thank AUN/SEED-Net for giving me this opportunity to participate in their training course, TUT’s professors for demonstrating their impressive research work, and Japanese companies for making their factories available for our visits.
