The socialization of the Draft Strategic Plan for 2025-2029 is crucial as the Strategic Plan for 2020-2024 is entering its final year. The 2025-2029 draft will also serve as the foundation for preparing annual work plans and budgets starting in 2025. The years 2025-2029 will be pivotal for UNDIP as it enters the phase of maturing into a World-Class University (WCU).
In his address, UNDIP Rector Prof. Dr. Suharnomo, S.E., M.Si. emphasized each faculty member’s unique strengths and reminded everyone of the university’s role in preparing students for the workforce.
“Each faculty has its strengths, and they are not to be compared. Hopefully, these strengths will be reflected in the targets we set,” said Prof. Suharnomo.
During the socialization, the Vice Rectors presented drafts of the targets to be achieved in their respective areas. Additionally, guidance on strengthening academic fields and general policies supporting UNDIP during the WCU Maturation Phase of 2025-2029 was provided by the Chair of the Academic Senate, Prof. Ir.
