The regional selection for the 2026 National Olympiad of Mathematics and Natural Sciences for Higher Education (ONMIPA-PT) was held at the Mathematics Laboratory 1, Department of Mathematics, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, University of Jember (UNEJ) (May 5-6). “Twenty UNEJ students, consisting of 13 from the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, 6 from the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, and 1 from the Faculty of Medicine, participated in the OMIPA-PT regional selection to secure a ticket to the national level at UNAIR Surabaya in June 2026,” said Prof. Dr. Edy Supriyanto, S.Si., M.Si. The Vice Dean III of FMIPA UNEJ, who was in attendance, provided direct support.

Nindha Ayu Berlianti, S.Pd., S.Si., M.Si., one of the mentors for the ONMIPA-PT UNEJ delegation, stated that the participants participating in the regional selection were selected from the university-level selection process several weeks ago. “This year, we conducted the university-level selection process first, then provided coaching to the 20 students who passed to participate in the regional selection process,” she explained. The successful participants then received intensive coaching at the C-RiSSH UNEJ Building. “Before the regional selection process, system testing and tryouts were conducted. This year’s competition is different from previous years, as we use the SEB application, access keys for both mathematics and physics, and we have our own proctors,” she continued.
