Partner Support and Collaboration
This community service activity not only involved the academic community of the Faculty of Engineering but also engaged various partners and institutions.

Collaboration with community health centers, hospitals, schools, and the surrounding community demonstrates that the Unhas Faculty of Engineering is working together to foster genuine social compassion,” he explained.
The MARANNU Spirit
This initiative aligns with the Unhas Faculty of Engineering’s service ethos, which is grounded in the MARANNU principles (Respectful, Prudent & Wise, Responsive, Trustworthy, Comfortable, Neutral, and Excellent). This philosophy serves as the foundation for fostering a culture of continuous care and service to the community.
