The necessity for educational institutions to continually innovate and upgrade their systems stems from the fact that they are the foundation of a great nation. To address this problem, Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta (UMY) and Universitas Islam Riau (UIR) agreed to cooperate in the field of education. Similar histories as Islamic-based institutions may be found in both UMY and UIR. Thus, it will make both institutions cooperate well in the future.
