The Regent of Magelang, Grengseng Pamuji, delivered an important message to new students of the UGM Faculty of Animal Science during the PIONIR Rancher 2025 event. On this occasion, Grengseng highlighted three key factors for career success: setting priorities, maintaining discipline, and networking.

“If I were asked to offer words of motivation, I would point to those three main things. Whether during our studies or after graduation, we must establish a clear set of priorities. Furthermore, we need discipline in every step we take, and, equally important, we must build a network that supports our career journey,” Grengseng told the new students on Wednesday (6/7). read more

Plastic waste is known to be hazardous due to its detrimental effects on the environment and human health. Plastic pollutes soil, water, and air, and can break down into microplastics that pose risks if they enter the body. Furthermore, burning plastic waste releases toxic substances that can trigger various health issues.

Demonstrating its concern regarding this issue, the Faculty of Animal Science at UGM has taken concrete action by eliminating the use of plastic during the 2025 New Student Campus Life Introduction (PIONIR) program, held from August 4 to 9, 2025. All meals provided during the event are prepared without single-use plastic packaging. read more
