    Prof Eddy Soeryanto Soegoto Targets UNIKOM for World-Class University Ranking

    BANDUNG, UNIKOM – In achieving success in the world of higher education today. Universities are required to achieve World Class University status which not only includes high academic quality, but also a commitment to making a positive contribution to the global community through education, research and innovation. WCU is the main destination for students and researchers who want to develop in an environment full of challenges and international opportunities. Like Universitas Komputer Indonesia (UNIKOM), which is currently raising its World Class University (WCU) Ranking.

    With more than 10,000 students, Universitas Ilmu Komputer Indonesia (UNIKOM) strives to rank high in the world-class university rankings. Currently, UNIKOM is ranked 169th in Southeast Asia, but no lower than 901st in Asia. UNIKOM intends to be below 100% in Southeast Asia this year.

    UNIKOM itself is a university that was established in August 2000 and has grown rapidly to become one of the private universities in Bandung. Now entering its 24th year and will turn 25 on August 8. Until now UNIKOM has seven faculties and 32 study programs. The faculties are: Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science, Faculty of Economics and Business, Faculty of Law, Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, Faculty of Design, Faculty of Humanities, and Postgraduate Faculty.

    UNIKOM Rector Prof. Dr. Ir. H. Eddy Sueryanto Soegoto MT said, to achieve this campus ranking target, cooperation from all stakeholders is needed. For this reason, UNIKOM is currently making efforts to make improvements both internally and externally. “After receiving the superior predicate, Unikom must move forward to the next level by improving internal and external quality. To achieve this, Unikom collaborates a lot with universities in the world. We learn a lot from them,” said Eddy through his interview quoted in the Friday edition of Pikiran Rakyat on January 17, 2025.

    Furthermore, Eddy said that UNIKOM does not only want to produce graduates who are ready to work in the industrial world, but also have the skills to become entrepreneurs. Therefore, since 2007, entrepreneurship courses have been required in all study programs, both Bachelor and Master. “This course must be taken by all students because UNIKOM wants to expand employment opportunities for its graduates, because based on my own experience, UNIKOM was also founded with an entrepreneurial spirit.” said Eddy, who is also the Chairman of the Association of Indonesian Private Universities (Aptisi) West Java.

    In the 2025 academic year, UNIKOM will add three study programs, namely: Doctor of Information Systems, Master of Communication Science, and Bachelor Program (S-1) Television and Film. The quota for new student admissions is currently set at around 3,000 to 5,000 students.

    “UNIKOM opened three new programs because it sees great potential, especially in terms of employment. Especially for the television and film study program, because UNIKOM has a commercial television channel, namely UTV. In addition, UNIKOM also has a radio, namely Hits UNIKOM Radio,” said Eddy.

    Eddy explained, after passing the pandemic period, he again made regulations so that lecturers and students conduct face-to-face lectures to be more effective. In addition, face-to-face lectures are also one way to improve teaching quality. The end result, of course, is an increase in campus quality. (Directorate of Hms & Pro)

  • Islamic Study Of Mt Ashfiyatun Nisa UNIKOM

    Islamic Study Of Mt Ashfiyatun Nisa UNIKOM

    BANDUNG, UNIKOM – The UNIKOM academic community is one of the universities that not only motivates and facilitates the rational intelligence or cognition of its lecturers and employees but also facilitates the spiritual intelligence of its lecturers and employees through tahsin, which is a process of improving how to read the Qur’an better, in accordance with tajweed and makhroj, this study is a forum for UNIKOM lecturers and employees who need additional knowledge and who want to improve their relationship with the Book of Allah. In addition to tahsin, there are also recitations to increase religious knowledge ranging from worship, akidah, Akhlaq, fiqh and so on. One example is the Taklim Assembly Study which has an important role in the life of a Muslim. The taklim assembly study is a periodic meeting held to explore Islamic religious knowledge. This activity has a very important meaning for Muslims. Through studies, understanding of the Qur’an, hadith, and other Islamic teachings deepens. This will strengthen one’s faith and piety. The knowledge gained will become a guideline in living our daily lives, so that our actions are more in line with Islamic teachings.

    Majelis Ta’lim Ashfiyatun Nisa Universitas Komputer Indonesia held an online Islamic Study, with Ustadz Sofyan Yahya, S.Ag., C.Mtq which was held on Friday January 3, 2025 with the theme “Tahsin and the Meaning of Q.S Al-Qamar” while on Friday January 10, 2025 a Study was held with Ustadz Dedi Hariadi who raised the theme. “Honoring and Glorifying the Month of Rajab”.

    The event was officially opened through remarks from the Advisor of Majelis Ta’lim Ashfiyatun Nisa UNIKOM, Assoc Prof, Dr. Hj. Dewi Kurniasih, S.IP., M.Si. She expressed her deepest gratitude to the Science & Technology Foundation and the Rector of UNIKOM for their continuous support in the smooth running of the UNIKOM Ashfiyatun Nisa Ta’lim Assembly program. “Hopefully this routine study activity every Friday can provide sustainable benefits for all of us, and become a means to deepen the religious knowledge we have,” she said hopefully.

    “Tahsin and Meaning of Q.S Al-Qamar”

    Surah Al-Qamar, which is the 54th surah in the Qur’an, contains many important lessons about Allah’s power and warnings for mankind. Beginning with the story of the miraculous division of the moon that occurred as a sign of Allah’s power, this surah describes how the moon split into two parts in front of the Prophet Muhammad’s people who doubted his prophethood. This event is a clear proof of Allah’s unlimited power, as well as warning mankind about the consequences of rejecting the revelation and signs of Allah. In addition, this surah also explains the punishment that befell the previous people who denied the messengers, such as the people of Noah, ‘Ad, Tsamud, and Fir’aun, as a lesson for the people who lived after them.

    Ustadz Sofyan explained that “Surah Al-Qamar teaches us to always contemplate the signs of Allah’s greatness around us. Although many miracles have been given to mankind, many still choose to reject and deny the truth of revelation. In this surah, Allah warns that the same punishment that befell the previous nations could also befall the deniers of today if they do not realize Allah’s power. Therefore, this surah invites us not only to see natural phenomena, such as the split moon, as a miracle, but also as a warning to always be grateful and believe in Allah, “he said. 

    Ustadz Sofyan also explained that Surah Al-Qamar reminds us that sincere faith and acceptance of His revelation is the key to avoiding the bad consequences that befall those who deny Him.

     “Honoring and Glorifying the Month of Rajab

    The month of Rajab is one of the most honored months in Islam. This month falls in the seventh month of the Hijri calendar and has a number of interesting features and history.

    In Ustadz Dedi’s study, he reminded that in this month of Rajab “We must abstain from sin because if we commit a lot of sin, the sustenance that Allah gives, the peace of heart and the peace of mind will all disappear. As explained by Ibn Qayyim Aljauziah that “One of the punishments that Allah gives to the one who sins is that he is prevented from obeying”. This is a punishment for those who sin, therefore in every moment of obedience, he feels lazy, weak, because that is the feeling that exists in people who commit many sins”. Ustadz Dedi said.

    At the end of closing his material, Ustadz Dedi reminded us that the strength of the heart determines our obedience to Allah SWT. He also advised that we must always be isiqomah to always obey Allah because obedience to worship is in the strength of the heart not physical strength. After the presentation of the material, the study participants conducted a question and answer session and after that the participants did a prayer together led by Ustadz Dedi Hariadi.
