Bandung – Chairman of the Foundation for National Education of the Republic of Indonesia, Prabowo Subianto, expressed his appreciation for the National University of the Republic of Indonesia (UKRI), which now has a Faculty of Mathematics and Physics.
This was conveyed by Prabowo when attending the graduation of UKRI’s bachelor’s degree at the Trans Convention Center, Bandung, West Java, on Thursday (29/2).
Prabowo said that the establishment of the faculty is a strategic step that is in line with the aspirations of UKRI’s development.
“I want to express my appreciation that from the beginning it was designed to help the nation, help the government to fill the sector (of education) that we felt needed assistance at that time,” said Prabowo.
“I received a report that this year the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences was opened. Mathematics and Physics programs will soon be opened, this is very strategic,” he continued.
Prabowo revealed that until now, Indonesia still needs many scientists in the field of exact sciences. In the future, Indonesia will need human resources who are not only innovative but also able to operate technology.
“Our future, the future of the nation will depend on the ability to master technology. Technology is not just a commodity, not just buying technology, but it must be able to master, create and operate that technology,” said Prabowo.
On that occasion, he also expressed his gratitude to Sufmi Dasco Ahmad as the Rector of UKRI. Prabowo is optimistic that UKRI will continue to grow.
“I want to express my highest appreciation, thank you today, especially to the Rector of UKRI, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad,” said Prabowo.
In addition to the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, UKRI currently has five other faculties, namely the Faculty of Industrial Engineering; Faculty of Social Sciences and Literature; Faculty of Computer Science and Information Systems; and Faculty of Economics. (SENOPATI)
