Kemenristekdikti Offers Credit Transfer Scholarship Program

Students of the Faculty of Economics and Business Receive an Offer of a Credit Transfer Scholarship Program from the Director of Learning and Student Affairs of the Ministry of Research, Technology and Higher Education.

The results of the meeting of the dean of the Faculty of Economics and Business Universitas Airlangga (Prof. Dr. Dian Agustia) with the Director of Learning and Student Affairs of the Ministry of Research, Technology and Higher Education (Dr. Ir. Paristiyanti Nurwardani, MP) that accounting students from the Faculty of Economics and Business received an offer of a credit transfer scholarship program from the Director of Learning and Kemenristekdikti students. Paristiyanti said that so far, the accounting department has never participated in a credit transfer program even though it was entered as one of the professions that had done this Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) for free flow of services since 2014.

Still according to Paristiyanti, accounting students are allotted 5 people throughout Indonesia to take part in the full scholarship program, for students in semester 4/6. The facilities that will be obtained by students are: living costs and program costs for 4 months. Therefore, accounting study programs who wish to participate in this program must immediately prepare a curriculum that will be submitted to universities in Korea. Later, there will be a joint curriculum that recognizes each other so that the courses taken while in Korea can be credited for transfer to universities in Indonesia.

In the near future Prof.Dr. Dian Agustia will socialize the recruitment process to students through the Study Program Coordinator of the Accounting Department, Faculty of Economics and Business, Airlangga University. (zen)
