Adila Arya Kusumastuti, Daffa Mudia Athifah, and Destya Vinka Wahyu Rosa Adinda, all from the Diploma Program (D-3) in Informatics Engineering, knew their triumph after FE UNU Yogyakarta announced the winners through their official Instagram account @bpc_unuyo on Wednesday (22/12/2021). The Team submitted a business plan on “The Effectiveness of Digital Web-based Guest Book in Managing Invitees” that was inspired by the shortcomings of the conventional paper-based guest book that is less effective, has a higher possibility to break, loss of data, and slow guest management process.

“Because the website development process aligns with our program, Informatics Engineering. Therefore, we want to develop this idea, and because of the pandemic, all activities could be slowed down if using a conventional guest book,” Daffa stated on Thursday (30/12/2021).

With the innovation, the Team could ease the invitees to attend an event. They do not need to write their name, signature, or address and only need to scan the barcode of their invitations. Daffa stated that the Team also employed UI/UX design to decorate the digital guest book and added interesting features for the book.

“We are interested in participating in this competition because previously in 2nd semester we won a business plan competition. Then when we learned about the competition, we took the opportunity and registered. Alhamdulillah, we brought home another 1st place,” Daffa stated.

When asked about the Team’s challenges during the preparation, Daffa stated that distance became their main issue because they could not meet and only discuss using video call application. Daffa added that they are all from different cities and only met during the final round. Besides the distance, the Team also needs to juggle their preparation with the Final Semester Exam concurrently. Thus, with their achievement, Daffa hoped that they could inspire other UNS students and develop their innovation to be used by the community in general. Humas UNS

Although the legal and formal collaboration has just been signed, the three faculties have collaborated for a longer period. The three faculties had sent their students for student exchange and joint lectures to support the MBKM Program.

Another collaboration established by FP UNS to support the MBKM Program is the partnership it signed with the Research Institute for Citrus and Sub-Tropical Fruits (Balitjestro) on Wednesday (24/11/2021). The signing ceremony for this partnership was held in Balitjestro Kota Batu, East Java. Prof. Samanhudi and Dr. Ir. Harwanto, M.Si, as the Chairman of Balitjestro, signed the document simultaneously.

As reported by fp.uns.ac.id, Prof. Samanhudi stated that the signing ceremony of the partnership agreement between FP UNS and Balitjestro is a formal legal agreement because both institutions have collaborated in research that involves FP UNS faculty members and students.

The collaborations are expected to help FP UNS in implementing the MBKM Program successfully. Humas UNS
