In support of the University's efforts to achieve international recognition as a World Class University, by increasing participation in presenting research findings at international forums, the Research and Community Service Institute of Universitas Trunojoyo Madura (LPPM UTM) is once again hosting an international seminar. The 2nd Trunojoyo Madura International Conference (TMIC) will be held with the theme "Solving Real World Problems with Creativity and Collaboration Based on Science, Technology, and Humanity," at the Dafam Pacific Caesar Hotel Surabaya, on July 25, 2024.

The event was officially opened by the Vice Rector for Student Affairs, Mr. Surokim, S.Sos., M.Si. In addition to participants from campuses in East Java, invitations were extended to representatives from both regional and provincial government authorities. In his speech, Mr. Surokim emphasized that this event would become a hallmark of UTM.

"May it continue and mark the distinction of a World Class University," said Surokim.

Unlike the previous year's TMIC implementation, the 2nd TMIC this time is divided into three main scientific fields: BTMIC (Biology Trunojoyo Madura International Conference), ICEST (International Conference on Engineering, Science, and Technology), and ICSSE (International Conference on Social Science and Economics). The event is organized to occur simultaneously but in different panels.

The keynote speakers for ICEST are Dr. Daniel L. Busch from La Trobe University, Australia, and Prof. Wahyudi Agustiono, Ph.D., moderated by Mr. Yusuf, ST., M.Sc. Meanwhile, the keynote speakers for ICSSE are Prof. Reevany Bustami, Ph.D., from Universiti Sains Malaysia, and Prof. Dr. Bambang Haryadi, SE., MSi., AK., CA., moderated by Mrs. Citra Nurhayati, SE., MA., AK., CA.

The second TMIC was attended by approximately 130 participants. There are 90 articles to be reviewed, which will subsequently be published as proceedings articles indexed in reputable international databases (SCOPUS and/or Web of Science).

This international seminar serves to open and expand interactions and networks among the academic community involved, whether participating online or in person, and enhances UTM's reputation on an international scale.
