Alumni Testimonials

In July 2019, I enrolled in the USU Master Degree of Forestry Study Program because it was linear with my educational background, which was the Bachelor Degree of Forestry Study Program. Reuniting with the lecturers I had known since my undergraduate studies made me feel comfortable. The lecturers, who held doctoral degrees, some of whom had even become professors, really motivated me to further explore forestry science.

 

We, the students, were invited on a study tour to Malaysia to learn about good forest management in that country. We visited botanical gardens, urban forests, and discussed and established collaboration with the Faculty of Forestry at Universiti Putra Malaysia. The friendly welcome from the teaching staff there provided a very pleasant experience.

 

At the end of 2019 to 2020, the world faced the Covid-19 pandemic. However, thesis preparation activities were still guided by lecturers of the USU Master Degree of Forestry Study Program through Zoom Meetings and field visits. Finally, I successfully completed my studies and graduated in November 2022.

 

Thank you to the lecturers of the USU Master Degree of Forestry Study Program who always share their knowledge, even in the midst of a pandemic. Long live the USU Master's Program in Forestry! May God always give His grace to Mr. and Mrs. lecturers and all staff of the USU Master Degree of Forestry Study Program. Please keep giving your service to the nation and state. Salam Lestari!
