Pharmacy Study Program Welcomes International Program Students

Assalamu’alaikum, Wr., Wb.,

In the academic year 2021/2022, an international program is officially opened in the pharmacy study program (PSP). Preparations for the opening of this international program have been started two years ago, starting with the opening of a class with English as instruction language. In addition to using English as the language of instruction in academic activities, this international program will provide greater opportunities for students to take part in global engagements programs with overseas institution partners of PSP as well as UII in general. Alhamdulillah, although it was just officially opened this year, the enthusiasm of prospective students who register for international programs is very encouraging so that the number of new students exceeds the targeted quota. With the opening of this international program, it is hoped that it will ease prospective students from overseas to continue their education in PSP UII. This is evidenced by the increasing number of overseas applicants which increased in the 2021/2022 academic year compared to the previous year. Hopefully, with this international program, the vision of PSP UII to increase global engagement will be easier to realize.

Welcome new international students at PSP UII!
