This time, the Faculty of Engineering Undip received good news. Two of its Study Programs have now obtained the “Excellent” predicate from LAM Teknik. The two Study Programs are the Doctoral Program of Mechanical Engineering and the Master Program of Civil Engineering. Those two Study Programs received the Excellent predicate after getting only the B predicate in the previous period. This accreditation achievement is quite a precious achievement for the Faculty of Engineering, considering that the mission of this faculty to become an excellent research campus in Indonesia only can be achieved by providing quality education with excellent standards.
The Indonesian Accreditation Agency for Higher Education in Engineering (LAM Teknik) itself is an independent accreditation agency run by the Institution of Engineers Indonesia (PII) and is tasked to execute the accreditation process for every engineering study programs in Indonesia. In this accreditation, the Doctoral Program of Mechanical Engineering managed to score 371 points, while the Master Program of Civil Engineering managed to score 375 points. With these points, the two study programs are eligible to obtain the Excellent predicate which is valid until 20 April 2028.
The Dean of the Faculty of Engineering, Prof. Ir. M. Agung Wibowo, M.M, M.Sc, Ph.D, was proud of this accreditation achievement. For him, the success of the Faculty of Engineering in managing good governance and the strong and reliable human resources management are the main keys to the success of those two Study Programs in obtaining the “Excellent” predicate. “For us, good governance is the backbone for our quality assurance. Good governance is the core, and behind it are the strong and reliable human resources,” he said regarding this success.
He hoped this achievement can improve the implementation of the threefold mission of higher education (tri dharma) in the Faculty of Engineering so that it could be even better. Besides that, the improvement of the governance as shown by the achievements in obtaining national and international standard certifications such as the national and international higher education accreditation and the ISO certification can be a trigger for every department and unit that is working under the Faculty of Engineering to improve and maintain this excellent quality.
