UAD Guidance and Counseling Study Program Holds Socialization on Accelerating Student Studies
Monday, on November 6 2023 AD to coincide with 22 Rabiul Ahir 1445 Hijriah, the Guidance and Counseling (BK) Study Program (BK) of the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education (FKIP) of Ahmad Dahlan University (UAD) held a Socialization for the Acceleration of Student Studies. This activity aims to be one of the efforts of the UAD FKIP BK Study Program to increase students’ on-time graduation rate.
Located in the Multipurpose Room on the Main Campus of Ahmad Dahlan University, this activity was carried out. Head of the BK FKIP UAD Study Program (Kaprodi), Irvan Budhi Handaka, M.Pd., opened this event smoothly and solemnly. In his speech, Irvan said that this activity was motivated by the phenomenon of the low on-time graduation rate for UAD FKIP BK Study Program students.
Therefore, the Study Program created a special team called the Final Task Unit (Tetas). This team will focus on managing students’ final assignments, so that students’ on-time graduation rates can increase. In fact, the study program targets that the student graduation rate is less than 4 years or less than 8 semesters.
Irvan, Head of the BK FKIP UAD Study Program, added that students also need lecture management, thesis supervision mechanisms, and tips for students so they can complete their final assignment smoothly and graduate on time.
Class of 2020 students who are currently in semester 7, attended as participants by listening carefully to the material from the resource person. The resource person for this activity was Dr. Wahyu Nanda Eka Saputra, M.Pd., Kons. as Lecturer in the BK FKIP UAD Study Program. He explained student tips and tricks in the thesis preparation process. Apart from that, Wahyu also added regarding the ethics of contacting supervisors, and time management for completing the thesis.
This activity ended with a group photo and giving resume assignments to students as a requirement for students to register for the thesis exam.
