FEB UNY received a visit from the accreditation taskforce team of the Faculty of Economics and Business (FEB) of Tadulako University (Untad), Palu. The Vice Dean for Planning, Finance, General, and Resources Affairs of FEB UNY, along with a number of officials and the FEB UNY Management Department taskforce team, received the guests led by the Head of the Untad FEB Management Department, Dr. Maskuri Sutomo, M.Si. This visit is a preparation for FEB Untad to face the accreditation process.

Maskuri explained the purpose of his team's visit, which consisted of the department secretary, head of Diploma Marketing Department,  and the accreditation taskforce team. "We want to know the steps taken by UNY in achieving FIBAA accreditation and also explore the possibility of cooperation in various matters, such as visiting professors or joint research," he explained.

Maskuri added that FEB Untad has done several things needed to support accreditation. "We have conducted international conferences, even for students. In addition, internationalization is also pursued through joint research agreements with foreign campuses. We are also still working towards excellence in LAMEMBA accreditation," he added.

FEB UNY Management Taskforce Team, Penny Rahmawaty, M.Si, said that FEB UNY chose FIBAA (Foundation for International Business Administration Accreditation) accreditation due to several considerations. "The quality assurance team of UNY suggested that we take FIBAA accreditation because it uses European education standards. FIBAA uses a Self-evaluation report filled in by the study program. Then there is a joint share filled by the faculty and university. Thanks to the hard work of all parties, FEB UNY succeeded in achieving FIBAA accreditation on March 2023, even without notes," explained Penny. (tian-fdhl)
