The recent international cross-visit of the Iloilo State University of Fisheries Science and Technology (ISUFST) College of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences (CFAS) team to Thailand was truly transformative. It showcased the immense potential of global collaboration in elevating educational standards — a lesson relevant to any institution aiming for “more.” Our journey included 12 faculty and administrators from ISUFST and two executives from the Department of Science and Technology (DOST). For seven days this early June, 2024, we engaged with the Rajamangala University of Technology Thanyaburi (RMUTT), the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center (SEAFDEC-TD), Kasetsart University (two campuses), and the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT), emphasizing cross-institutional learning valuable to many, if not all schools.
