The 2024 FORTEI-International Conference on Electrical Engineering (FORTEI-ICEE) was held at Udayana University

Jimbaran - Udayana University (Unud) through the Electrical Engineering Study Program, Faculty of Engineering, is hosting the 2024 FORTEI-International Conference on Electrical Engineering (FORTEI-ICEE). This activity, which was opened by the Rector of Udayana University, took place in the Lecture Building Meeting Room, Jimbaran Campus, Thursday (24/10/2024). This year's conference has the theme "Empowering Innovations: Navigating the Future of Semiconductor Industry".

Committee Chair Dr. Gede Sukadarmika, ST., M.Sc in his report said that FORTEI- ICEE 2024 received proposals from various fields, including electronics, power and energy systems, control system engineering, telecommunications, and signal processing. Each proposal undergoes a peer review process before being accepted for presentation. The conference received 100 proposals, with only 55 selected for presentation. In addition to paper presentations, the program features keynote speakers, dinners, and social events.

Regarding the conference theme, the party will also present three main speakers who will explain their vision and research findings in the plenary session, namely Prof. Tuo-Hung Hou from Taiwan Semiconductor Research Institute, Prof. Trio Adiono from the Indonesia Chip Design Collaborative Center, and Dr. Ir. Ali Murtopo Simbolon from the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs. 

Through this opportunity, Dr. Gede Sukadarmika also thanked the main speakers for their support for this conference. He also expressed his gratitude to all FORTEI-ICEE 2024 participants for choosing this event as a forum to publish their research findings.

Chairman of IEEE Indonesia Section Prof. Ir.
