On Monday, 21 November 2022, the Faculty of Public Health (FPH) at the Universitas Indonesia (UI) held a Round Table Discussion (RTD) activity for the Undergraduate and Masters Programs. This activity aims to provide information and obtain input from students, graduate users and graduates regarding the vision, mission, curriculum, competencies, and course delivery presented by the study program. This activity was carried out in Rooms G103 and G104 FPH UI and through the Zoom Meeting platform.
The event was attended by the Deputy Dean for Education, Research and Student Affairs, Dr. Ir. Asih Setiarini, M.Sc.; Academic Manager, Dr. Laila Fitria, S.K.M., M.K.M.; Head of the Department of Epidemiology, Prof. dr. Asri C. Adisasmita, M.P.H., M.Phil., Ph.D.; Secretary of the Department of Nutrition, Ir. Siti Arifah Pujonarti, M.P.H .; Head of Public Health Undergraduate Study Program, Dr. Robiana Modjo, S.K.M., M.Kes.; Head of the Environmental Health Undergraduate Study Program, Dr. Ema Hermawati, S.Si., M.K.M.; Head of the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Undergraduate Study Program, Mila Tejamaya, S.Sc., MOHS., Ph.D.; Head of the Master of Public Health Study Program, Dr. Budi Hartono, S.Si., M.K.M.; Head of Epidemiology Masters Study Program, Dr. dr. Helda, M. Kes.; Secretary of the Environmental Health Undergraduate Study Program, Dr. Al Asyary, S.K.M., M.P.H.; and lecturers from undergraduate and master study programs.
“There’s a lot that needs to be discussed through this RTD, especially about MBKM which is quite challenging to implement in health departments such as FPH. We will use this discussion as input so that the books can move forward and develop even better,” said Dr. Asih Setiarini in her speech.
The RTD activities were then divided into two, where the discussion of the undergraduate education program was guided by the Academic Manager, Dr. Laila Fitria, S.K.M., M.K.M., and the discussion on the master’s education program was guided by the Head of the Public Health Masters Study Program, Dr. Budi Hartono, S.Si., M.K.M. The discussion which was also attended by stakeholders such as students, alumni, and users (graduated users) is expected to produce meaningful and constructive outcomes not only for FPH UI but also for related stakeholders.
Previously, on November 15, 2022, FPH UI had also carried out the same activity format, namely RTD, but it was intended for the doctoral program. The discussions that were carried out also aimed to obtain useful outputs for the development of the doctoral program from students, alumni, and graduate users. (wrk)
