UNAIR NEWS – Faculty of Psychology (FPsi) Universitas Airlangga (UNAIR) successfully held a Digital Psychopreneurship Display on Monday and Tuesday, Dec 11-12, 2023, in the Excellent with Morality Hall of FPsi UNAIR. The event not only became a platform for students’ self-development in the field of psychopreneurship but also underscored close collaboration with reputable partners.

Improving student hard skills and soft skills

The main focus of the Airlangga Digital Psych Bootcamp event is to offer students an intensive experience to improve hard skills and soft skills in developing digital psychological assessment and intervention competencies. Through interactive lectures and internships in the business and industrial world (DUDI), students get opportunities to apply their psychological knowledge.

One of the main highlights is Airlangga Digital Psychopreneurship Bootcamp, which is specifically designed to improve students’ entrepreneurial competencies as well as the application of digital psychological assessment and intervention competencies in the context of psychopreneurship. Psychopreneurship, as the application of entrepreneurship principles to psychological services in the business and industrial sectors, is the main focus of student development.

One of the interesting parts of this event was an interview with representatives of the chronic disease patient support services team. They explain their products in collaboration with inspiring partners and offer unique services. The instant service allows users to consult online with a psychologist or counselor when opening the application.

Scheduled services give users the ability to choose a consultation schedule according to the availability of psychologists or counselors, providing greater flexibility for those with tight schedules. While unscheduled services allow users to make appointments outside the specified psychologist or counselor schedule.

This event provides students with the opportunity to broaden their horizons, hone practical skills, and develop an interest in the field of psychopreneurship. The spirit of student enthusiasm was visible in every session of the event, reflecting the complete success of the Digital Psychopreneurship Display event at the Faculty of Psychology, Universitas Airlangga.
