UGM Phytopathology Master’s student named Nurina Al Mira took part in the 2022 Student Exhange Program between Universitas Gadjah Mada and Yamagata University by Jasso Scholarship. Japan Student Services Organization (JASSO) offers scholarship for qualified international students who are accepted by a Japanese university under a student exchange agreement or other student exchange arrangement on a short-term basis for one year. This program is a program that supports students who carry it out to carry out research while undergoing this program.
On October 23rd, 2023, we were honored to host a guest lecture by Melina A. Markkanen from University of Helsinki, Finland. This is also a part of Bioinformatic and Plant Disease Diagnosis class in our magister program.
In this class, we discuss about Bioinformatics and AMR (Anti-Microbial Resistance) Metagenomics. Her insights opened new doors into the fascinating world of genomics and its role in addressing the critical issue of antimicrobial resistance.
On Sunday, September 17, 2023, a gathering activity to welcome new student namely Hello New Students event for odd class 2023 was held by Master in Phytopathology Study Program. This event was carried out by student association, Ikatan Mahasiswa Fitopatologi (IMF), for every new admission of the year. This year, it was performed in the canteen hall of the Faculty of Agriculture UGM. Lectures and students from various year intake, 2021 – 2023, cheerfully participated the gathering. This activity aims to welcome new students to Master in Phytopathology study program and increase the sense of kinship among family members of the study program.
Master in Phytopathology Guest Lecture activity was held on Tuesday, August 29, 2023, in the Venture Room (AGLC-6th Floor) of the Faculty of Agriculture at 09.00-10.30 WIB. The presentation of Guest Lecture material on the topic ‘Inducing Disease Resistance by Abiotic Stress’ was delivered by Prof. Tatsuo Sato, the Director of the Center for International Field Agriculture Research and Education, College of Agriculture, Ibaraki University.
This event was carried out using a hybrid system, namely offline and online, via the Zoom meeting platform which was open to the public and attended by postgraduate students from the UGM Department of Pests and Plant Diseases, lecturers, and alumni. Guest lectures aim to expand students’ knowledge through direct experience carried out by resource persons. Guest lecture activities are very beneficial for students, lecturers, and the general public because they gain new insight into research carried out by researchers in their home countries so that they can serve as inspiration or examples for controlling plant diseases. Apart from that, guest lecture activities can also create relationships or collaboration between UGM and Ibaraki University.
