In order to assist students in their graduate thesis research and writing, particularly with regard to the substance of the research and writing, a thesis supervisor will be assigned individually for each student, taking into account the lecturer’s competence on the thesis topic. Students are intensively guided by 2 supervisors during the process. The thesis supervisor will be selected by the Head of the Study Program from permanent lecturers at the Department of Plant Protection, Faculty of Agriculture Universitas Gadjah Mada with a specialty in phytopathology, or permanent lecturers at Universitas Gadjah Mada. Students who wish to undertake thesis writing in a semester must first ensure that they must input Thesis in their Study Plan for the related semester and has passed or currently taking “Graduate Seminar” in the same semester s/he wishes to write a thesis.

On Wednesday, July 24, 2024, the Master of Phytopathology study program held a guest lecture with Yonadita Pramesti, Field Application Specialist from Genetic Science as the speaker.
In this class, we learn about RNA sequencing including its workflow, factors to consider when designing research on RNA sequencing, and applications of RNA sequencing in various fields. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is a technology used to understand the transcriptome of an organism, which is a complete collection of RNA transcripts produced by the genome under certain conditions.
On Thursday, July 11, 2024, students and lecturers of the Master of Phytopathology carried out activities together with the Rukun Lestari Young Farmers Group in Semuten Hamlet, Jatimulyo Village, Dlingo District, Bantul Regency, Yogyakarta.
In this activity, students, lecturers, and farmer groups cultivated shallots from True Shallot Seed (TSS) to produce healthy shallots using seeds that are free from pathogens, so that they can increase the quantity and quality of shallot products.
On April 29-30th 2024, Dr. Stephen Harper as project leader of ACIAR Project: Crop health and nutrient management of shallot-chilli-rice cropping systems in coastal Indonesia, had a visit to Indonesia for research meeting progress and field visit in Yogyakarta. Students in Master of Phytopathology are actively engaged in International research collaboration. The next day, Stephen, Lecturer, and Students involved visited UGM and BRIN research farm UGM dan BRIN.
This visit is a routine activity to ensure the progress of collaborative research process runs with good coordination between the parties involved.
