Monday, August 22, 2022, the Faculty of Engineering, Diponegoro University, officially held 100% face-to-face lectures offline. This activity received a positive response from students because many wanted offline classes since they are considered more effective teaching and learning activities.
Moreover, the Faculty of Engineering has various courses, such as practicum and research, which will undoubtedly be much more effective if done offline. “Of course I feel very happy, especially since the first year of college I have never experienced lectures offline. My impression of offline lectures was very fun because I can carry out face-to-face discussions with friends and lecturers and also understand the material presented better,” said Ilmi Tri Zenith, a student of the Environmental Engineering Department.
Effective learning is the key to quality graduates. The Faculty of Engineering strives to provide learning in the best way to prepare students who are competent in their respective fields.

(5/7) Semarang – Tuesday, July 5, 2022, there were first and second Field Visits to places that were case studies in this summer course, including Tambak Lorok and Kampong Bustaman. The visit to Tambak Lorok raised the theme “Resiliency and Adaptation toward Flooding” because Tambak Lorok is a sub-district in North Semarang that is often affected by tidal flooding when the sea is at high tide. In this session, the participants, divided into four groups, conducted observations, interviews, and documentation of the environment and residents around Tambak Lorok. After the activity, each participant made a presentation. From the presentation, the most significant problems experienced by the residents of Tambak Lorok are tidal flooding and waste management. The floods are unpredictable, so residents have to raise their houses every year. However, there are still many of them who do not carry out such renovations due to the lack of existing income, and it has an impact on an unhealthy environment. There was a group that proposes a solution to build a Mangrove Cultivation Center as mitigation from tidal flooding. However, the area has many challenges and changes, but it isn’t easy to sustain due to urban activities.

The next destination in the second Field Visit was Bustaman Village which is famous for its goat curry because it is usually used to slaughter goats which will be processed into a curry. This village was developed by Hari Bustaman, who also sparked the Gebyuran culture about nine years ago and received an award from Raden Saleh. Residents who live in Bustaman Village have mixed ethnicities, including Chinese, Indian, and Arab. Bustaman village also has many MSMEs using biogas as the primary fuel in the production process of MSME products since 2006. Bustaman village is also famous for its hospitality because it always receives guests with a smile which is the village’s icon. However, the slaughtering activity in the village became a discussion among the participants about the impact on the health of the residents around the village.
