CHEMISTRY STUDY PROGRAMME CURRICULUM SOCIALIZATION

The Chemistry Study Program, FMIPA UNY, held a socialization of the MBKM curriculum for the lecturers of the Chemistry Education Department, FMIPA UNY on January 14, 2022 at 08.30 WIB - finished online via a zoom meeting. This activity was attended by a number of 30 lecturers. The purpose of socializing the MBKM curriculum is to harmonize perceptions about the concepts and learning patterns of student MBKM, especially for student Academic Supervisors (PA) who apply the MBKM curriculum.

In this socialization activity, the coordinator of the chemistry study program who also serves as the head of the chemistry education department, Dr. Retno Arianingrum, conveyed the basic concepts of the MBKM curriculum to lecturers. In his presentation, Dr. Retno Arianingrum said that the types of courses in the MBKM curriculum are divided into study programs (covering original study programs and study programs outside the university) and additional courses/free learning activities. There are 3 MBKM learning patterns offered and can be chosen freely by students, namely:

  1. 5-1-2 learning pattern (5 semesters of study in the original study program, 1 semester in another study program within UNY, and 2 semesters outside UNY)
  2. 6-1-1 learning pattern (6 semesters of study in the original study program, 1 semester in another study program within UNY, and 1 semester outside UNY)
  3. 6-0-2 study pattern (6 semesters of study in the original study program, 0 semesters in other study programs within UNY, and 2 semesters outside UNY)

This student learning pattern must be chosen by the student at the end of semester 2 with a note that it cannot be changed until the student graduates. As for the subjects of specialization in the chemistry study program, they are divided into material chemistry courses, biological chemistry, and environmentally friendly chemistry. Through this socialization activity, it is hoped that it can provide an overview of PA lecturers to monitor and monitor the progress of student studies so that they can graduate on time.
