In the process, FEB UGM provides integrated assistance through the Global Relations and Mobility Office (GREAT) unit for students who register for the IISMA program. This assistance is felt by FEB UGM students, one of whom is Ancilla or, familiarly known as Sisi, a 2021 Management student who was accepted by the 2024 IISMA program to Lund University, Sweden. “FEB UGM is so supportive of students taking any program, one of which is IISMA. Everything was made very easy from the start of registration, so we were motivated to register without hesitation,” she said.
This achievement confirms FEB UGM’s commitment to fully supporting the student development process. FEB UGM assists students who receive the Indonesian Smart Indonesia Cardp-College (KIP-K) who want to register for IISMA by providing the Duolingo English Test facility for free. This year, 12 students received this assistance.
Vice Dean for Academic Affairs FEB UGM, Bayu Sutikno, S.E., M.S.M., Ph.D., expressed his pride in the achievements of the 26 students who successfully graduated as recipients of the 2024 IISMA Awardee. This achievement is not only a manifestation of the quality of the learning process at FEB UGM, but it also sends these 26 students to the best business schools in the world. It also serves as a global passport for students to forge themselves into global leaders in the future.
“Congratulations to the 26 students who received the 2024 IISMA Awardee. This achievement results from students’ hard work, parents’ prayers and various development programs carried out by GREAT together with the Career and Student Development Unit (CSDU) FEB UGM and colleagues managing the Undergraduate Study Program FEB UGM,” he said.
