Prof. Dr. Rita Khathir, S.TP, M.Sc
Tentang Saya (About Me)
My name is Rita Khathir. I am a profesor in the field of post harvest technology at Department of Agricultural Engineering, Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Syiah Kuala since December 2024. I am the second daughter from Allayarham Mr. Drs. H. Rusli Ibrahim and Mrs. Dra. Hj. Armanusah Ali. After completing from a kinder garten FKIP UNSYIAH, my parents had sent me to Madrasah for 12 years including 6 years at MIN Tungkob (Islamic elementary school), 3 years at MTsN Tungkob (Islamic junior high scool) and another 3 years at MAN 1 Banda Aceh (Islamic senior high school). Following my Father's recommendation, I had studied Agricultural Engineering for 4 years and was accepted as junior lecturer in 2002 directly after 3 months graduation. In 2006, I received DAAD scholarship for doing a Master Program for Tropical and International Agriculture (TIA) at Faculty of Agriculture, Georg-August University Goettingen (GAUG)-Germany, under supervision of a great ones, Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Luecke. In 2008, I had pursued the doctoral degree at International PhD Program for Agricultural Sciences Georg-August University (IPAG) financed by Indonesian government at program DIKTI-LN-Batch-1, under supervision of Prof. Luecke and Prof. Pawelzick. In 2011, I had returned to my Universitas Syiah Kuala for teaching, research, and community service activities. My research focus is on thermal technology for postharvest especially simple user friendly technology for small scale farmers. I am married a civil engineering specialist, Mr. Khairul Syahmega. Under his support, I am developing some modifications on solar tunnel dryer type Hohenheim Aceh, hydraulic oil press, and fermentation cettle. I am teaching on several subjects such as drying technology, statistics, heat transfer, storage technology, processing technology, cooling techniques, appropriate technologies, and agriculture buildings. I have three princes, Najwa Khailifa, Durratu Syahmega and Zahiratu Syahmega. For my beloved persons, I will live longer with positive mind and hard effort, Insya Allah, and will transfer knowledge and skill for my society.
