Almost all universities in England were present at this Expo. He hopes that through this activity students will get opportunities and information directly from university delegates from England.

This activity is also an important part of Udayana University's journey towards internationalization and becoming a World Class University. 

"Hosting the UK Education & Academic Networking activity is also one of our ways to make Udayana University gain more recognition internationally, especially in the UK," said the Rector.

England is also the home of the world's top universities and several of them were present at this activity. Through this activity, the party wants to provide more opportunities for the younger generation, especially those in Bali, to study in England. Apart from that, this activity can also strengthen cooperation between Unud and universities in England, where the potential and opportunities exist in this activity and we need to build networks and relationships that will help realize these opportunities.
