Local innovations rooted in concern for the environment and society have proven capable of creating a global impact.

To support the welfare of students, the Faculty of Economics and Business Universitas Gadjah Mada (FEB UGM) through the Career and Student Development Unit (CSDU) again runs the Mood Booster program during the Semester Final Examination (UAS) even semester of the academic year 2025/2026.

The government will launch an economic incentive policy package on June 5, 2025, to boost economic activity and purchasing power.

From hobby to impactful business, that’s the inspiring story of Tatsbita Ratqa Amany, an Economics student from FEB UGM class of 2022, who managed to turn her love for handicrafts into Day of Art, a creative platform that has now held hundreds of workshops, collaborated with hundreds of brands, and reached dozens of cities in Indonesia.

Amid increasingly stringent U.S.

UGM economist Wisnu Setiadi Nugroho, S.E., M.Sc., Ph.D., said the poverty rate in Indonesia has decreased.

The Faculty of Economics and Business, Universitas Gadjah Mada (FEB UGM), is once again offering free breakfast to students during the mid-semester examinations (UTS) of the second semester in the 2024/2025 academic year.

The Indonesian government’s Free Nutritious Meal Program (MGB) has sparked both support and criticism.

Looking for a cozy spot to enjoy a cup of coffee while studying? Want to hang out with friends? Or simply craving delicious snacks? FEB UGM students have introduced three vibrant cafés on campus—Naroo, Soakin, and MilkyMoo—offering exceptional flavors and a study-friendly ambiance.

With modern concepts, comfortable environments, and diverse menus, these cafés not only provide a unique culinary experience but also embody sustainability and creativity in entrepreneurship.

Poverty and economic inequality remain major challenges in Indonesia’s development.
