Computational physics chemistry is a branch of chemistry which in its application uses the results of theoretical chemistry. It is then translated into a computer program to be able to calculate the properties of molecules and their changes. Computational chemistry can also simulate large systems such as liquids, gases, liquid crystals, and solids, then apply these programs to real chemical systems. The purpose of this research is to conduct a bibliometric analysis using computational physics chemistry as a case study by combining mapping analysis using VOSviewer software. The bibliometric and descriptive quantitative approach were applied in this research. The data obtained is a search result based on the keyword “computational physics chemistry” in Google Scholar. From the search results, 1000 articles published were found ranging from 2016-2021. The results show that computational physic chemistry research with term study was identified as the most studied in the 2016–2021 period. In conclusion, this study shows the importance of conducting a bibliometric analysis, especially in the field of computational physics chemistry. It is expected that this research can be a reference for future research in conducting and determining research themes.

The launch of the Digital Business Bachelor’s Degree Program reflects UNIKOM’s commitment as a Digital Entrepreneurial University to offering educational programs that adapt to technological advancements and the rapidly evolving needs of the digital industry. This program is also designed to produce professionals who not only understand modern business concepts but also master the use of digital technology and artificial intelligence (AI) to create innovative business solutions.
During an interview, UNIKOM Vice Rector III for Research, Innovation, and Accreditation who also serves as Dean of the Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Ir. Herman S. Soegoto, MBA, stated that the launch of the Bachelor of Digital Business program is a crucial step in addressing the need for skilled professionals in the era of digital transformation. “Alhamdulillah, UNIKOM’s Bachelor’s Degree Program in Digital Business has received approval from the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, and Technology. This is a very important step for us. We recognize that current developments in the business world are inseparable from the use of digital technology. Digital transformation has reshaped nearly every industrial sector, leading to a growing demand for human resources who possess competencies in both business and digital technology,” he said.
He further added, “On the other hand, the availability of human resources who master both management and digital technology in an integrated manner remains very limited. Therefore, UNIKOM is launching the Digital Business Bachelor’s Degree Program as an effort to address this need and prepare graduates who are ready to face the developments in the digital industry,” he added. Furthermore, Assoc. Prof. Herman explained that the Bachelor’s Degree Program in Digital Business is designed to produce graduates who possess a balance of business and digital technology competencies. According to him, the primary objective of this program is to produce professionals capable of adapting to industry developments while driving innovation in the digital economy era.
As part of the Campus AI Ready ecosystem, students in the Digital Business Bachelor’s Program will gain a learning experience supported by the implementation of artificial intelligence technology in the learning process. This support is reinforced through UNIKOM’s strategic collaboration with Google via the UNIKOM x Google Learning Center Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, located in the lobby of UNIKOM’s Smart Building and serving as Indonesia’s first AI lab, thereby providing students with access to a variety of cutting-edge digital technologies and platforms relevant to industry needs.
As the administering institution, UNIKOM is also committed to implementing the Digital Business Bachelor’s Degree Program in accordance with National Higher Education Standards and applicable laws and regulations, including reporting on the program’s implementation to the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, and Technology as mandated by the Ministerial Decree. Furthermore, the launch of the Bachelor of Digital Business program is part of UNIKOM’s efforts to support the transformation of higher education in alignment with the developments of the industrial revolution and the national digital economy. By combining technological excellence, innovation, and entrepreneurship, UNIKOM is confident that this program will be one of the best choices for young people seeking careers in the digital business sector.
Registration for the first cohort of new students in UNIKOM’s Bachelor of Digital Business program has officially opened through UNIKOM’s New Student Admissions (PMB) process. Prospective students can register online via pmb.unikom.ac.id from July 11 to August 21, 2026, as stated in the promotional materials released by UNIKOM. Through the Digital Business Bachelor’s Degree Program, UNIKOM reaffirms its position as a university that is responsive to the times and consistently produces outstanding, innovative graduates who are ready to become the driving force behind Indonesia’s digital transformation.
