In his speech, the Rector congratulated the graduates who would enter a new chapter in their lives and did not forget to give advice to always remain dedicated in order to maintain the good name of Lambung Mangkurat University.
“Therefore, I would like to invite the graduates to first maintain the good name of ULM alma mater when they leave ULM as ULM alumni, secondly the dedication of graduates to the alma mater that we love and are proud of is a must so that ULM will continue to succeed in the future because of its alumni,” he said.
He also expects alumni contributions in increasing the achievement of ULM’s IKU, especially for alumni who want to continue their S2 studies at ULM. He even offered a solution for alumni, especially the best ULM graduates, to be interested in continuing their education at the postgraduate level at ULM.
“I also remind you who want to continue your Masters, especially for those who graduated cum laude, then do it immediately, because based on the Decree of the ULM Rector, for ULM alumni who graduated with cumlaude or honors, they are given the opportunity to study for free for 2 semesters and only pay 50% of tuition fees in semesters 3 and 4. For those who do not cum laude but continue their education directly to the Masters level at ULM, they are given a 35% discount on tuition fees,” said the Rector.
After the Rector’s speech, the event began with the reading of the graduates’ oath which was continued with the inauguration of all graduates carried out by the Deans of each faculty. The inauguration of these graduates took place solemnly and was accompanied by the happy faces of the families who accompanied them. Congratulations to the 121st ULM graduates. Good luck!
