UNAIR NEWS – Towards the end of 2021, Universitas Airlangga held a meeting attended by administrative and supervisory officials. The end-of-year meeting was also attended by all division heads and sub-division heads of each faculty, as well as section heads and the sub-directorate of the management office.
UNAIR Rector, Prof. Dr. Mohammad Nasih, SE., MT., Ak, opened the meeting at the Ballroom Hyatt Regency Yogyakarta on Saturday, December 11, 2021. The Rector revealed that currently the transformation process in the education sector has undergone very significant changes. Therefore, his party encouraged all participants to support the administrative transformation process towards digitalization.
“We have to do a lot of transformations. What used to be 100 percent manual work has now become digitized with a possible composition of 50:50. It’s our job to support the process as well as possible,” said the Rector.
In addition to carrying out administrative transformation towards digitalization, the Rector also invited the participants to support research development activities on campus since currently, UNAIR is in the process of transforming into a research university.
“This means that activities related to development, research, and innovation are the dominating activities,” said the Professor of the Faculty of Economics and Business (FEB) UNAIR.
Our university, continued the Rector, is currently undergoing many changes. It has been transforming from an agent of learning to an agent of the development of science and technology or a research agent. “Let’s always adapt to changes,” he explained.
At the end of his speech, the Rector invited all participants to become valuable together and fully support the activities of the academic community. Thus, UNAIR’s goals to become a leading university in the world as well as a pioneer in the development of science and technology and humanities can come true.
On the same occasion, one of the participants expressed the importance of holding a year-end reflection meeting. “Year-end reflection meetings like this are very important to make us self-evaluate our work in the current year and, of course, to reorganize and plan a better direction to realize the goals of the organization, “said Head of Administration of the Faculty of Vocational Studies, Sri Suprabaningrum.
