    Activities : Regional Conferences  
     
  Regional Conference (RC) is the upgraded function of the old Field-wise Seminar (FWS) organized in the first phase of the AUN/SEED-Net Project. To publicize research work done under the AUN/SEED-Net Project and to maximize the outreach of the AUN/SEED-Net network for stronger impacts, the Regional Conference involves more participants from broader communities including industry, community, non-Member Institutions, and other professional organizations. It is, therefore, not only a place where faculty members in Member Institutions and Japanese Supporting Universities review the progress of research carried out by AUN/SEED-Net students under the Collaborative Research Program and discuss related activities for further research collaboration, but also a venue to collect and disseminate the most updated technology and the research of regional issue and public interest in order to contribute to the community and to draw support from the industrial and the governmental sectors.

The Regional Conference in each of the nine fundamental engineering fields and the five interdisciplinary research areas has been organized annually by the Member Institutions on a rotational basis, with technical assistance from Japanese universities. However, at the early stage it may be arranged in a smaller scale as the Regional Workshop before being organized fully as the Regional Conference. The Regional Conferences/Workshops are supported mainly by the ASEAN Foundation, and partially by JICA, the Member Institutions, and other parties.
