    UNIKOM Holds Ramadan 1447 H Gathering and Charity for Orphans, Promoting Social Awareness in Collaboration with Three Orphanages

    BANDUNG, UNIKOM – To fill the holy month of Ramadan with activities rich in spiritual values and social compassion, Universitas Komputer Indonesia (UNIKOM), through Majelis Ta’lim Ashfiyatunnisa, organized the Ramadan 1447 H Religious Lecture series, combined with the distribution of charity to orphans from three orphanage foundations. The event took place on March 9, 11, and 13, 2026, at the 17th-floor Auditorium of the UNIKOM Smart Building.

    In attendance were UNIKOM Rector, Prof. Dr. Ir. Eddy Soeryanto Soegoto, M.T., along with the Vice Rectors and Deans of UNIKOM, accompanied by the Chairperson of the Foundation for Science and Technology and advisor of Majelis Ta’lim Ashfiyatunnisa, Dra. Hj. Ani Astuti, S.E., as well as members of Majelis Ta’lim Ashfiyatunnisa board who played an active role in organizing the religious study session and charity event.

    In addition to the regular religious study sessions, the charity event for orphans is part of UNIKOM’s commitment to fostering a spirit of sharing and strengthening religious values within the campus community. The series of activities included religious study sessions, religious lectures, communal prayers, the distribution of charity, and concluded with iftar together in an atmosphere filled with warmth and togetherness.

    On the first day, Monday, March 9, 2026, the charity was distributed to children from the Nurani Anak Negeri Foundation, located in Kopo, Bandung City. Next, on Wednesday, March 11, 2026, the sharing activities continued with children from Panti Sosial Asuhan Anak (PSAA), located in Sarijadi, Bandung City. Meanwhile, on Friday, March 13, 2026, UNIKOM once again shared with children from the Salamiyah Foundation in Bandung City. In total, 100 children from these three foundations participated in the entire series of Ramadan activities organized by UNIKOM.

    UNIKOM Rector, Prof. Eddy, warmly welcomed the children from the orphanages who attended and expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to share happiness during Ramadan. Prof. Eddy stated that the event was intended to foster a sense of togetherness while bringing blessings to the entire UNIKOM academic community.

    Furthermore, Prof. Eddy stated that the presence of the orphaned children on campus brought a special joy to the UNIKOM family. He hoped that the bonds of friendship formed through this event would continue every Ramadan and benefit all parties involved. According to him, the prayers and the presence of the orphans on campus are expected to bring blessings to UNIKOM, both in this world and in the hereafter.

    Vice Rector II for Resources, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Agus Riyanto, S.T., M.T., CSBA., in his remarks, encouraged the children to view the month of Ramadan as an opportunity to improve themselves, enhance discipline, and cultivate a more structured lifestyle through the practice of fasting. He also explained that entering the last ten days of Ramadan is a time of great virtue and an opportunity to further improve the quality of worship.

    Dr. Agus added that the Ramadan religious study sessions organized by UNIKOM are intended to become an annual activity. Through these activities, it is expected that a closer bond will be fostered between the UNIKOM academic community and the public, particularly children from orphanages. He also expressed hope that the children present would be motivated to continue their education through college, and perhaps one day pursue their studies at UNIKOM.

    During the event held on Wednesday, March 11, 2026, the series of religious study sessions began with the recitation of Surah Yasin led by Ahmad Marfu, followed by a religious lecture and prayer delivered by Aenurofiq, S.Ag. The atmosphere of the session was solemn and filled with a sense of family, attended by the orphanage children as well as the UNIKOM academic community.

    At the closing event held on Friday, March 13, 2026, in addition to the religious lecture and the distribution of charity, the recitation of Surah Yasin was led by Ustadz M. Zein Fitri, S.Ag., M.Ag., followed by a religious lecture and prayer delivered by Ustadz Dodih Suhardih, S.Ag., M.H.

    Through the Ramadan religious lecture session and charity for orphan, UNIKOM not only provides a spiritual space for the academic community but also strengthens the university’s commitment to fostering social responsibility and sharing joy with the community during the holy month of Ramadan. It is hoped that this initiative will continue as a tradition of kindness, bringing benefits and blessings to all involved. (Directorate of Hms & Pro)

  • Strengthening the Three Pillars of Higher Education, DP3M UNIKOM Holds an Internal Research Grant Contract Signing

    Strengthening the Three Pillars of Higher Education, DP3M UNIKOM Holds an Internal Research Grant Contract Signing

    BANDUNG, UNIKOM — On Monday, March 9, 2026, the Directorate of Research and Community Service (DP3M) of Universitas Komputer Indonesia (UNIKOM) held an Internal Research Grant Contract Signing Ceremony for the 2025–2026 academic year. Held in the Seminar Room of UNIKOM Campus I, this event was one of the university’s strategic agendas in encouraging the improvement of the quality and productivity of lecturers’ research as part of the implementation of the Tri Dharma Perguruan Tinggi (Three Pillars of Higher Education).

    The Director of DP3M UNIKOM, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Irawan Afrianto, S.T., M.T., explained that the internal research grant program is a routine activity organized by UNIKOM to encourage lecturers to be more active and productive in conducting research. “Research is an important part of the Tri Dharma Perguruan Tinggi and is also one of the aspects of lecturer performance assessment. Through this internal research grant, UNIKOM provides facilities for lecturers to carry out research in both basic and applied research,”he said.

    Furthermore, Dr. Irawan added that the results of the research are expected to produce various academic outputs and innovations, such as scientific publications in indexed national and international journals, book publications, and intellectual property rights (IPR) from the research products produced.

    The UNIKOM internal research grant program is carried out over eight months with several stages of activities. These stages begin with the submission of research proposals, the signing of grant contracts, monitoring and evaluation (monev) in the middle of the research implementation, reporting of research results, to a research results seminar known as Seminar Hasil Penelitian (SEHATI), the Research Results Seminar. Through this seminar, the research results of lecturers can be disseminated to the academic community and the wider public.

    For the 2025-2026 research grant period, DP3M UNIKOM received 39 research proposals from lecturers. After going through an evaluation process by reviewers, 29 proposals were approved for funding, consisting of 18 basic research proposals and 11 applied research proposals.

    Dr. Irawan hopes that this program will not only enhance the research culture at UNIKOM but also have a broader impact on society. “The hope is that this internal research grant will encourage lecturers to be more active in conducting research, improve their SINTA scores through scientific publications, and produce works that benefit society. Additionally, the research outcomes can support faculty performance evaluations through reporting in the BKD system and other academic activities,” he concluded.

    Through this program, UNIKOM remains committed to strengthening a productive, innovative, and sustainable research ecosystem, while expanding the university’s contribution to the development of science and the resolution of various issues in society. (Directorate of Hms & Pro)

  • Towards Professional and Certified Human Resources Directorate of General Administration Unikom holds BNSP Competency Test for Educational Staff

    Towards Professional and Certified Human Resources Directorate of General Administration Unikom holds BNSP Competency Test for Educational Staff

    BANDUNG, UNIKOM – Saturday, February 28, 2026, the National Professional Certification Agency (BNSP) held a face-to-face competency test for 39 educational staff members of the Universitas Komputer Indonesia (UNIKOM). Facilitated by UNIKOM’s General Administration Directorate Of General Administration UNIKOM, the exam was divided into two schemes: the Human Resource Management (HRM) scheme for program study secretariat staff, deans, and the rectorate, and a special finance scheme for  Directorate Finance staff. Prior to participating in this certification, which aims to strengthen campus governance, all participants received online training on February 21, 2026, to ensure optimal readiness.

    Held on the 10th floor of the UNIKOM Smart Building, the competency test was attended by UNIKOM administrative secretariat staff and Finance Directorate staff who underwent a series of assessments based on national work competency standards. During the process, participants were tested not only on their theoretical understanding but also on their practical ability to carry out administrative tasks in accordance with the standards set in the national professional certification system.

    The competency test was conducted by professional assessors with experience in their fields, namely Dr. Suyanto, S.E., S.Pd.I., M.M., M.Ak., Ak., CA., Idham Maulana Oktora, S.M., M.M., Dr. Sri Lestari Prasilowati, M.A., and Meli Andriyani, S.E., M.M. The presence of these assessors ensured that the assessment process was carried out objectively, professionally, and in accordance with the competency certification standards set by BNSP.

    Before taking the competency test, the secretariat staff in the field of resources and finance first attended the BNSP certification preparation training held on February 21, 2026. The training aimed to provide participants with an understanding and practical skills related to human resource administration, social security management, payroll administration, and the implementation of human resource management policies.

    UNIKOM Vice Rector II for Resources, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Agus Riyanto, S.T., M.T., CSBA., in his speech expressed his hope that all participants would be able to take the competency test well and obtain optimal results. Dr. Agus also emphasized that the competency test was part of efforts to improve the quality of human resources within the university. “I hope that all participants can take part in this competency test as well as possible and get the best results,” he concluded.

    Meanwhile, in an interview, UNIKOM Director of General Administration, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Adeh Ratna Komala, S.E., M.Si., CERA., said that this activity was part of the institution’s commitment to encouraging capacity building and professionalism among employees. She explained that competency development is important so that employees can make a real contribution to the performance of their respective work units. The certification obtained through this competency test also has strategic value because it is nationally recognized through BNSP. “The hope is that there will be an increase in employee competency so that they can make a better contribution to various products and services in their work units. This is part of the employee development process that UNIKOM focuses on. Both lecturers and employees are encouraged to continuously improve their competencies. The certificates obtained will be from BNSP, which is registered and recognized nationally, so that the competencies of UNIKOM employees are not only recognized internally but also professionally recognized at the national level,” she said.

    Furthermore, Dr. Adeh explained that the implementation of this certification is a follow-up to the direction of the Rector of UNIKOM, Prof. 3 Prof. HC. Dr. Ir. Eddy Soeryanto Soegoto, M.T., as part of efforts to improve the quality of human resources. This program is also expected to motivate employees to continue to update their skills and knowledge in line with the development of organizational needs.

    The Directorate of General Administration itself routinely carries out various employee capacity building activities, such as service workshops, administrative competency improvement, and other professional development training. However, the implementation of competency tests with BNSP certification is a new step because the certificates obtained have official national recognition.

    Through this series of training and BNSP competency tests, UNIKOM continues to reaffirm its commitment to creating a competent, competitive work environment that supports the achievement of the institution’s vision as a leading university in the fields of technology, information, and management.

  • Supporting the Transformation of Digital Tax Administration UNIKOM Tax Center Holds Socialization on Filling out Coretax Tax Returns

    Supporting the Transformation of Digital Tax Administration UNIKOM Tax Center Holds Socialization on Filling out Coretax Tax Returns

    BANDUNG, UNIKOM – Support for tax management in an institution is reflected through efforts to increase tax literacy, technical assistance, and the use of a digital-based tax administration system. On Tuesday, February 24, 2026, the Indonesian Computer University (UNIKOM) through the UNIKOM Tax Center, in collaboration with the UNIKOM Finance Directorate, held an Information Session and Assistance on Filling Out Annual Personal Income Tax Returns (SPT PPh OP) through the Coretax system for the UNIKOM academic community. The activity was conducted online via Zoom and was attended by lecturers and educational staff at UNIKOM.

    This program is part of the UNIKOM Tax Center’s efforts to improve tax literacy and compliance in higher education institutions, while also supporting a sustainable tax education program in collaboration with the West Java I Regional Office of the Directorate General of Taxes (DJP). On this occasion, participants gained an understanding of the preparation of annual tax returns and hands-on practice in filling out personal tax returns through the Coretax system, which is the latest digital platform in tax administration.

    Vice Rector II for Resources, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Agus Riyanto, S.T., M.T., CSBA., in his speech said that digital transformation in the tax administration system through Coretax is an important step taken by the government to create a more transparent, integrated, and efficient tax reporting system. “As a technology-based university, UNIKOM strongly supports the implementation of this system, so that this socialization activity becomes an important means for the academic community to understand the process of filling out Annual Personal Tax Returns correctly and in accordance with regulations,” he said.

    Furthermore, Dr. Agus hoped that through this activity, lecturers and staff could adapt to the Coretax system, ensure the accuracy of data in tax reporting, and increase awareness and compliance in fulfilling tax obligations as a form of real contribution to national development.

    Meanwhile, Deputy Chair of the UNIKOM Tax Center Prof. Dr. Siti Kurnia Rahayu, S.E., M.Ak., Ak., CA., who in her capacity represented the Chair of the Tax Center as well as Deputy Rector I for Academic and Student Affairs at UNIKOM, Prof. Dr. Hj. Umi Narimawati, Dra., S.E., M.Si., in her speech said that the socialization and assistance in filling out the Annual Personal Tax Return through the Coretax system is part of the UNIKOM Tax Center’s commitment to strengthening its role as a tax education center that consistently provides literacy and assistance to the academic community. This activity is also a collaboration between the Tax Center and the UNIKOM Finance Directorate under the coordination of the Vice Rector II, with the aim of helping lecturers and staff understand the tax reporting process more easily, accurately, and on time.

    In addition, Prof. Siti Kurnia also emphasized that basically many taxpayers have good intentions to comply, but often face technical obstacles in preparing documents and filling out tax returns, so that through this socialization accompanied by hands-on practice, it is hoped that it can increase understanding, fiscal literacy, and build a culture of sustainable tax compliance within UNIKOM.

    The series of activities continued with the presentation of the main material delivered by speakers from the Directorate General of Taxes, namely Senior Tax Advisor Rony Zakaria and Senior Tax Advisor Siska Maharani. In their presentation, the two speakers explained how to prepare and fill out the Annual Personal Tax Return and provided hands-on practice in filling out the tax return using the Coretax system, so that participants could understand the reporting stages in a more practical and applicable manner. The discussion session was interactive through a question and answer session, moderated by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Ely Suhayati, S.E., M.Si., Ak., CA., who also serves as Treasurer of the UNIKOM Tax Center. On this occasion, participants had the opportunity to consult directly regarding obstacles or problems that often arise in the tax reporting process.

    Through this tax socialization activity, UNIKOM reaffirmed its commitment to supporting increased understanding of taxation among academics and educational staff, while strengthening the role of the Tax Center as a center for taxation education and assistance. It is hoped that this activity will assist all UNIKOM academic staff in fulfilling their annual tax return reporting obligations in a timely, accurate, and compliant manner with the evolving digital-based tax administration system.

The Snailly Labs team from the Codelabs Division has been officially selected as a semifinalist in the Microsoft Imagine Cup 2026 global technology innovation competition organized by Microsoft. This prestigious competition brings together the best student teams from various countries who present solutions based on artificial intelligence (AI) to address global challenges.

    This year’s Imagine Cup features two competition tracks: “Launch Path” and “Scale Path,” designed to support startups and students according to their development stage. A total of 22 teams were selected as semifinalists for Imagine Cup 2026, consisting of 13 Scale Path teams, 9 Launch Path teams, and the Snailly Labs UNIKOM team was selected as one of the Launch Path semifinalists. In the next stage, all semifinalist teams will receive intensive mentoring, technical guidance, and direct access to industry experts and global venture professionals. The jury will then select the best teams to advance to the World Championship and compete on the international stage. In this semifinal stage, the pitching session is scheduled for April 7, 2026, while the announcement of the teams advancing to the next stage is planned for late spring to early summer 2026.

    Snailly Labs, a team from the UNIKOM Codelabs Division, presented an innovative adaptive content filtering solution that allows parents and educational institutions to determine digital content safety standards relevant to the development of children aged 5 to 14 years. Unlike conventional parental control systems, the developed solution prioritizes a contextual, transparent, and customizable AI-based approach tailored to the needs of each family and educational institution. With an inclusive design, multilingual support, and a human-in-the-loop approach, this platform allows parents and educational institutions to define digital content safety standards in a more relevant and participatory manner.

    The Snailly Labs UNIKOM team consists of students from various study programs at UNIKOM, namely Ariq Hikari Hidayat from the Informatics Engineering study program, Muhammad Favian Jiwani from the Informatics Engineering study program, Raditya Aryabudhi Ramadhan from the Informatics Engineering study program, and Regia Qolbu Rivita Atmowidjaja from the Information Systems study program, who collaborated in developing this technological innovation.

    Successfully reaching the semifinal stage is proof of UNIKOM students’ capacity to integrate research, technological innovation, and social awareness into one sustainable solution. This event not only provides global recognition but also opens access to a world-class technology ecosystem, including support from AI leaders, startup operators, and venture professionals. In addition, the team has the opportunity to refine their product for the market and prepare for the next stage of the competition.

    The Head of the Codelabs Division, Dian Dharmayanti, S.T., M.Kom., expressed her hope that the Snailly Labs team can optimize access to modern infrastructure and expert guidance so that this platform can truly become a new standard for inclusive digital content security. “Hopefully, this international experience will inspire the team to not only stop at the competition, but to continue transforming this research innovation into a real solution that protects children around the world in a sustainable manner,” she concluded. Through this achievement, UNIKOM once again reaffirms its commitment to nurturing young innovators who are not only technically proficient but also capable of delivering real solutions for the global community. The next phase of the World Championship is now the focus of Snailly Labs’ efforts to bring honor to Indonesia on the global technology stage. (Directorate of Hms & Pro).
