Furthermore, Prof. Soni Nopembri, S.Pd., M.Pd., Ph.D. said that the Master of Mathematics Education Study Program already has superior accreditation, and there is still something that needs to be improved and maintained its excellence. Yogyakarta State University learned a lot from Sebelas Maret University, especially in 2022, to learn about PTN BH, with our vision of excellence in education. With accreditation, we want to improve the institution, both tridarma and non-academic, cooperation, and improvement, especially for the Mathematics Study Program. The Mathematics Study Program has considerable interest; there are several scholarships from the Mathematics Study Program, which is one of the attractions in Mathematics Study Program, so in the future, it is expected to remain superior, as well as the Master of Mathematics Education Study Program, needed by the community. UNY, as a legal entity, continues to develop at the National and International levels; we encourage foreign and international students according to UNY's vision, namely for the world-class.

 

Prof. Dr. Mardiyana, M.Si., as an assessor in his presentation, said that we were assigned by Lamdik, we only clarified what was in LED, and we believe UNY is one of the good PTNs because it includes PTN BH and achievements owned by UNY. We thank the welcome from the Study Program and the University; this shows the commitment to quality assurance. Hopefully, we will report according to the conditions in the field and learn good practices at UNY. Sebelas Maret University often learns at UNY PPG quality management, cooperation, and doctoral mentoring, including dissertation testing, so it is hoped that it can bring educational progress together both from Makassar State University and have a future for Indonesia.

At UNY, Prof. Dr. Suradi, M.S. has personal experience as an external examiner of dissertations, and today, I was assigned by Lamdik to conduct a field assessment both in terms of several aspects and portraits; I learned a lot from UNY, what is best will be used for institutions, I believe the task force is following existing standards, but we want to see what is in the field and in the LED that is compiled. We have witnessed quantitative data and will verify it; we want to know much about Led.

 

In his closing remarks, Prof. Soni Nopembri, S.Pd., M.Pd., Ph.D, we from the FMIPA team will prepare related to the assessment, and we UNY are committed to ensuring quality, both academic and tridarma processes according to quality standards both government and global regulations, and what we need to improve, please be given input by the assessors and the team will move; hopefully, the assessors can run well.
