BEM FTI UPN Veteran Yogyakarta Holds Seminar and PKM Proposal Review 2019

    After successfully winning one (1) gold medal at PIMNAS 2019 in Bali, UPN Veteran Yogyakarta is committed to continuously improving its achievements in the Student Creativity Program (PKM) competition. The seminar and PKM proposal review event held on September 7 and 14, 2019, organized by the Student Alliance (BEM) of the Faculty of Industrial Engineering at UPN Veteran Yogyakarta, is one of the efforts to increase enthusiasm among Industrial Engineering students towards PKM.

    The seminar, themed 'Exploring Potential and Achieving Success Through the Student Creativity Program,' was attended by 180 students in the first week and 50 students in the second week. The first week’s event, held on September 7, 2019, featured Mr. Setyawan Wahyu Pratomo, S.T., M.Eng., who presented an introduction to PKM and its various fields. During this week, the Gonjang Ganjing team, the PIMNAS 2019 contingent from the Faculty of Industrial Engineering at UPN Veteran Yogyakarta, and the Geobuild Team, which secured PKM funding, were also invited to share their experiences and inspire students.

    In the second week (September 14), the seminar continued with discussions on tips and tricks for succeeding in PKM, guidance experiences, and the motivation to participate in PKM. The speakers for the second week included Mr. Tri Wibawa, S.T., M.T., and Ms. Ismianti, S.T., M.Sc. This seminar was followed by a proposal review session, where participants who had already prepared proposals received feedback.

    Through this seminar and proposal review event, it is hoped that student enthusiasm for PKM will increase, the number of funded proposals will rise, and UPN will continue to win medals in the upcoming PIMNAS competition.
