IP UMY’s MATAF Held Critical Discussions with Political Observers

Yogyakarta (15/9) – New students are both the next generation of the country and the next generation of reformers who will help higher education meet its academic goals in the future. A new student at a college or university is like a blank sheet of paper that needs to be filled out correctly. So, during the 2022 UMY Government Science Ta’aruf (Mataf) Period, IP UMY held a critical discussion with the theme “Menumbuhkan Kesadaran Intelektual Dalam Keberagaman Sosial Guna Mencipatakan Aktualisasi Diri Mahasiswa Pembaharu.”

The event started with a speech by Dr. Tunjung Sulaksono, S.IP., M.Sc., Head of the UMY Government Science Study Program. Then, well-known people like Constitutional Law Expert and Political Observer Dr. Refly Harun, S.H., M.H., LL. M. and Activist and Academician Syahrul Ramadhan Yusuf, S.SoS., M. Ag., M. Pd. led a discussion session. As a starting point, Muhammad Eko Atmojo, S.IP., M.IP, Secretary of the UMY Government Science Study Program, and David Efendi, S.IP., MA, UMY Government Science Lecturer, moderated this discussion. This talk happened in person on September 14 at the E.6 Amphitheater on the 5th floor of the KH Building. Ibrahim UMY.

After the COVID-19 pandemic, this is the first face-to-face mataf. This conversation added to the meaning of the orientation period for the start of the Government Science Study Program by bringing up interesting topics and getting new students to think critically. We hope that this discussion will inspire new students and make them more intellectually aware so that they can be at their best when it comes to self-actualization as they go through school. (ARP)

Yogyakarta (13/9) – Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta (UMY) through the International Program of Government Affairs and Administration (IGOV) held a group discussion forum on the topic of Government Development and Digital Economy to Realize Village SDGs at Alana Malioboro, Tuesday (13/9/2022). Sub-districts in Sleman, Bantul, and Kulonprogo participated in this activity which also involved the Ministry of Villages, Disadvantaged Regions, and Transmigration.

Dr. Supriadi, Director of Investment Services for Disadvantaged Regions and Transmigration at the Ministry of Villages for Development of Disadvantaged Regions and Transmigration, said that his party appreciated UMY’s active steps in helping government programs to develop villages. According to him, collaboration must be carried out because the government cannot immediately move alone without the help of other parties.

“This is a good collaboration with UMY that what we do is followed up by both the campus and the community. We both have roles and functions as well as advantages and authority. The Ministry of Village has policies, and universities like UMY have technology and research. Going forward, we encourage collaborative programs between the Ministry of Villages, Villages, Local Governments, Universities, and the Private Sector. A good synergy can emerge and it is hoped that it will bring benefits to the village,” he said.

In the discussion, according to Supriadi, several things emerged which were underlined, especially in the development of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes), which so far are still constrained. There needs to be commitment and partisanship from the village head whose hope can emerge soon after various deliberations like today

“Commitment and partisanship are discussions to develop BUMDes as well as human resource development. This is the subject of discussion and continues to be maximized. For example, the alignment of the village head gives BUMDes the flexibility to professionally manage the scale of the economic zone. Commitment is also how to use village funds for BUMDes. Through this village meeting, this commitment emerged from the village apparatus,” he continued.

On the other hand, BUMDes are asked to be more creative in finding potential as well as forming an industry that can support the village. According to Supriadi, regarding managed land, it is not a problem because BUMDes do not necessarily become the owner.

“The land rights remain from the village or the sultanate but the right to manage it lies with the BUMDes. This is not a problem. For example, planting vegetables, chicken coops, and so on, there is a period and not long. The most important thing is innovation and creativity. There is industrialization, the development of natural resources, whether tourism villages or commodities and creative and creative activities with digitalization as well as human resources,” he concluded.

Meanwhile, the Director of the UMY IGOV Program, Sakir Ridho Wijaya, added that the discussion forum activity involving village heads in DIY was UMY’s real effort to participate in unraveling the problems that occurred. It is hoped that the collaboration with the campus can have a positive impact on village management for the prosperity of the community.

“We collaborate with researchers from the UMY Government Science study program according to the needs of our partners, in this case, the village. We are helping to establish BUMDes, MSMEs, and even tourist villages in the sub-districts,” he said.

Three Things New Students Should Do Before start learning in college

Yogyakarta (2/9) – Prospective students begin the shift from high school students to college citizens once the semester begins. Prospective students’ transition also comprises academic, mental, friendly environment, and living environment adaption, especially for those who plan to reside in a boarding home near the university. The transition from high school to college involves both physical and mental preparation to ensure that studies and adaptations go well. Here are some things that students should do before going to college.

1. Learn how to handle your money
Prospective students who will live independently or with their parents must learn to manage their daily finances on their own. When you start college, there are numerous activities available to help you develop your academic competence and skills. If you are unable to discover free options for pupils, consider which activities demand a priority budget.

2.Manage Your Time
If you want to pursue freelance employment while studying for the first semester, make sure you have solid time management and energy management skills. Because it takes time and effort to adjust to lectures, both academically and socially. So, if it’s not critical for you or your family, reconsider accepting a part-time job while working in the first semester.

3. Learn about on-campus student health services.
Various colleges have clinics, hospitals, and counseling services to accommodate students’ physical and emotional health needs. Some are integrated with the medical school and psychology faculty, while others exist on campus as separate units. (ARP)
