Worl Class University

In 2009, Yogyakarta State University launch a new program International Level of Education or we called World Class University ( WCU ). This program have purpose to introducing Yogyakarta State of University into global education. To starting this program, a university sides increasing level of activities, increasing knowledge professors and students, and increasing facilities of college. To realizing this program, a university sides start in some faculty and ones of them is mathematics. In this program, a university sides create a new class. In this class, all transformation lessons are using English language. But, when we look in curriculum, they are as same as with non international class. They just pointed in IT education and knowledge in International rooms.

According to Mr. Marsigit’s stories, an leaders of WCU program, to doing this program needed expensive founds. Beside that, it is must be supported by good professors experiences, and have international certificates. To get this criteria this university not so easier because just little professor have all criteria. So, to successes this program, Mr. Marsigit’s and President of Yogyakarta State University, Mr. Rochmat’s sent professor to short course in others country. This is purpose to increasing professors skills when teach, including increasing their knowledge about global education. Beside that, a launching World Class University has advantage for professor to publish their science papers and journals in international level.

I think, a student of Yogyakarta State University, this new program is so wonderful. I am so proud and full support about this program because it can make this university names were known by everyone. But, to successes this program not so easier because there are so many equipments must be prepared. We are as a student must support them with study hard and get greats GPA. In this case, the global education can see that Yogyakarta State University can stand right and success creating genius people for bright future. I hope this program just only held in mathematics faculty, but in all of faculties. So,it can makes Yogyakarta State University was known by everyone and so finding by everyone.
