The RPL participants came from the faculty of animal science of some universities namely UGM, UNS, Universitas Brawijaya, Universitas Kanjuruhan, Universitas Halu Oleo, UNPAD, and private institutions.
“Currently, the livestock industry has developed rapidly which involves other professions. In the production process, engineering is needed and this is where supporting gaps occur. With this engineering profession program, it is hoped that it can help overcome this gap,” the Dean of FAS UGM said, Prof. Dr. Ir. Ali Agus, DAA., DEA., IPU, when giving a remark at the reception ceremony of RPL participants.
Chairperson of Engineer Study Program, Prof. Dr. Ir.
