Dr. Edy Supriyanto, S.Si., M.Si., Vice Dean of FMIPA UNEJ for Student Affairs and Alumni, officially closed the Pembinaan dan Pengembangan Mahasiswa Baru (PPMB) FMIPA 2024 activities (5/10). A series of events providing material on PKM, ONMIPA material, PPK ORMAWA achievement material, PKM guidance material, and UKM expo at FMIPA have been carried out. “For the past three weeks, every Saturday PPMB has been carried out to increase knowledge and organizational insight for new students,” said Vice Dean III of FMIPA. It was said that PPMB would be the beginning for students to achieve high achievements in academic and non-academic fields.
Many national-level competitions have been won by FMIPA students at the national level through PKM, ONMIPA, PPK ORMAWA, and UKM. “Your seniors have been able to show national achievements with the provision of PPMB material; in the future it is time for new students, and we are ready to accompany them,” he hoped. Deputy Dean III of FMIPA also mentioned the Dean’s message to be able to realize FMIPA student graduates achieving 3.5 to the power of 4. FMIPA students take their thesis exams in 3.5 years, get a GPA of 3.5, a waiting period of 3.5 months, and a first salary of 3.5 million.
In the third week, new students received UKM material in FMIPA. Each UKM presented activities and achievements that had been achieved. “Each ORMAWA and UKM FMIPA was given the opportunity to attract new students to join,” said Inayah Maulidiya Indar Parawansa, President of BEMF MIPA. Several UKM, including PALAPA, attracted interest by creating mini camps and flying foxes around the FMIPA building. PPMB 2024 participants were enthusiastic about the programs offered by UKM and ORMAWA FMIPA.
Closing with the inauguration and outbound, each class of PPMB FMIPA 2024 showed off, competed, and had fun. Dance, vocal arts, operettas, and drama were presented. The joy seemed to cover up the tiredness, and the and the togetherness and solidarity of each class attracted the sympathy of the participants and the PPMB 2024 committee. The competition was lively, and the committee also prepared prizes for encouragement. Furthermore, in the next two meetings, new students will receive material about HMJ for each department at FMIPA UNEJ.
