In contrast, another came from the Agricultural Extension and Communication study program.
The average GPA of graduates from the Department of Agricultural Socioeconomics who graduated in this period reached 3.64, with an average study period of 4 years and six months. One achievement that we should appreciate is that of Mufti Ardhi Perwiraddin, who emerged as the Best Graduate of the Department of Agricultural Socioeconomics with a GPA of 3.76.
Mufti Ardhi Perwiraddin conveyed his impressions and hopes, “Education is the power of life, and life teaches us how unique we are; for me, the Department of Agricultural Socioeconomics is a comfortable home for learning, growing, and developing. Lecturers with their uniqueness, fast administrative services, as well as colleagues who are diligent and smart. Participating in competition activities, KKN, MBKM, and other learning facilities will be a beautiful, meaningful, and unforgettable experience. Hopefully, the agricultural socio-economic department will become a more beautiful home, beautiful, valuable, and capable of creating future generations that are useful for agricultural development. For friends of the younger generation, remain enthusiastic and active in seeking knowledge because human status will be higher with knowledge. The spirit of fighting, hopefully, will become more kind, active, enterprising, and strong and make both parents proud. Thanks for everything, and good luck.”
As part of our hopes for the future, we hope that future graduates can continue contributing to sustainable development through the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by utilizing the knowledge and experience they gained while at university. Congratulations to all graduates; we hope success always accompanies your future steps.
