Tanoto Science Research Competition
HIMATIKA ITB has actively participated in Science Research
Competition, an event held annually and sponsored by
TANOTO Foundation. In this competition, HIMATIKA has
succeeded to introduce “wireless optimizing model”, a model
that can predict proper Wi-Fi modems location in our campus
so that students can get an optimal internet connection.
National Science Olympic
HIMATIKA ITB has actively sent their member to participate
in National Mathematics and Science Olympic for university
students in Indonesia. In 2012, our 3 members: Saaadah Sajjana

6. Member Development
HIMATIKA Investment Club (HIC)
