Held on the 6th-floor atrium of the Faculty of Design, UNIKOM Smart Building, “Majang Kawani” is a regular event held every semester as a platform for appreciating and showcasing the works of final-year students in both the bachelor’s and diploma programs. Additionally, the event serves as a space to demonstrate the quality and competitiveness of UNIKOM students’ works in the creative industry.
The Dean of the UNIKOM Faculty of Design, Prof. Dr. Ir. Lia Warlina, M.Si., in her opening remarks, expressed appreciation to the students for their achievements. “Congratulations to all students who have completed their final projects and produced works, whether in the form of designs or theses. As a design practitioner, the courage to present and showcase one’s work is of utmost importance. There is no need to fear shortcomings, because that is where the learning process and refinement take place. What matters most is how the work can continue to evolve, adapt, and provide benefits,” she said.
Furthermore, Prof. Lia stated, “I hope all the works on display can serve as inspiration, not only for fellow students but also for the wider community. May these works mark the beginning of a long journey toward success in the world of design,” concluded Prof. Lia.
Final Project Coordinator, Deni Albar, S.Sn., M.Ds., explained that the exhibition serves as proof of the Design Faculty students’ presence in both academic and industrial spheres. “Final project exhibitions like ‘Majang Kawani’ aim to demonstrate that the quality of our students’ work is on par with that of students from other institutions. This also serves as a reference for underclassmen to emulate the success of the final project participants,” said Deni.
In this edition, the exhibition featured 28 participants, comprising 5 students in the thesis category and the rest in the final project category. The final projects on display were divided into several categories, including visual identity, production or advertising design, social campaigns, and information media. Deni added that the trend in project categories remains dominated by information media, although the promotion and advertising categories also show increasing interest from students.
Meanwhile, Faisal Alzaid Nugraha, a student representative from UNIKOM’s Visual Communication Design program who also exhibited his work, stated, “Through this Majang Kawani event, I received a great deal of feedback from my academic advisors. On this occasion, I presented a promotional product for the ‘Ceu Kokom’ meatball stall, focusing on the issue of commercial persuasion in promotional media,” he explained. At the end of his statement, Faisal also expressed his hope to underclassmen who will be working on their theses or final projects to stay motivated, persevere, and continue creating without limits to produce their best work.
Through “Majang Kawani,” the UNIKOM Faculty of Design reaffirms its commitment to producing outstanding, creative, and adaptable graduates who address challenges through the visual solutions needed for industrial development, while simultaneously strengthening UNIKOM position as a productive educational institution in generating innovative works.

BANDUNG, UNIKOM — Amid the rapid surge of technology in the era of modern warfare, defense dynamics are no longer reliant solely on physical strength, but increasingly on innovation and mastery of advanced technologies. Accelerated developments in fields such as Artificial Intelligence, drone systems, and cyber technology have transformed the battlefield into one that is more complex, fast-paced, and data-driven. Universitas Komputer Indonesia (UNIKOM), in collaboration with the Indonesian Army Field Artillery Center (PUSSENARMED), established a partnership through an official meeting and the signing of a Cooperation Agreement (PKS) on Thursday, April 2, 2026.
The event took place at the Grand Meeting Room, 15th Floor of the UNIKOM Smart Building. UNIKOM Rector, Prof. 3 Prof. HC. Dr. Ir. Eddy Soeryanto Soegoto, M.T., was present alongside the university’s Vice Rectors, Deans, Director of INFRANET UNIKOM, and Head of the Cooperation Division. The PUSSENARMED delegation was led by Major General TNI Budi Eko Mulyono, S.Sos., M.Han., CHRMP., along with his team. The occasion marked an important milestone in strengthening collaboration between higher education institutions and national defense entities, particularly in advancing science, technology, and the development of competitive human resources in an increasingly complex global landscape.
Rector UNIKOM, Prof. 3 Prof. HC. Dr. Ir. Eddy Soeryanto Soegoto, M.T., emphasized in his remarks the importance of synergy between the academic world and the defense sector in addressing the challenges of the digital era. Prof. Eddy stated, “On this occasion, we are honored to receive a visit from ARMED, namely Major General Budi and his delegation. UNIKOM itself has directorates and divisions related to robotics, rockets, digital & ICT, and Artificial Intelligence. We will collaborate on these to develop increasingly advanced systems,” said Prof. Eddy.
Furthermore, Prof. Eddy also emphasized that this collaboration is expected to provide added value in the development of human resources as well as national defense technology innovation. “We want to share and assist so that ARMED can create new technologies applicable to weapon systems, while bringing honor to the name of the Indonesian nation,” added Prof. Eddy.
Meanwhile, Commander of PUSSENARMED, Major General TNI Budi Eko Mulyono, underscored the urgency of this collaboration in supporting the modernization of national defense systems. “Through this cooperation with UNIKOM, we aim to facilitate the transfer of technological capabilities into our environment to support defense operations. The collaboration will follow the framework of the Tri Dharma of Higher Education, including research, educational exchange, and community service,” he explained.
He also noted that the initiative is driven by the need for technological transformation within the military from manual systems toward more advanced and integrated modern systems. During the meeting, several strategic points were discussed, including the transition from conventional to digital-based defense technologies that are more effective and precise, the increasing reliance of modern warfare on technologies such as drones, missiles, and automated systems, collaborative development of adaptive technologies aligned with the evolving complexity of warfare, joint research in Artificial Intelligence and robotics-based weapon systems, and UNIKOM’s role as a strategic partner in facilitating research, development, and real-world implementation within PUSSENARMED.
The event continued with the formal signing of the Cooperation Agreement as a commitment to this strategic partnership, followed by an interactive discussion session. The PUSSENARMED delegation also visited the UNIKOM x Google Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, “AI Learning Center,” to observe firsthand the technological innovations being developed.
