[Unpad Media Channel] Universitas Padjadjaran opens the International Undergraduate Program (IUP) from April 29th to June 1st, 2024. Unlike the other Undergraduate programs, admission to IUP is purely based on academic reports and English proficiency.
“IUP is an Unpad admission that does not require UTBK scores. It is a chance for those who do not participate in UTB or their orientation is for the independent exam, can enroll to the international class,” said the Chair of SMUP Office Ir. Anas, PhD.
Anas explained that 14 study programs is open this year, namely Accounting (Double Degree), Management(Double Degree), Islamic Economics, Economics (Double Degree), Digital Business (Double Degree), Fisheries Science (Double Degree, Marine Sciences (Double Degree), Dentistry, Pharmacy, Law, International Relation, Business Administration, Communication Science, and Medicine.
Every study program already cooperates with university partners abroad. Students can have an opportunity to go overseas to participate in student exchange for one semester or one year. Students from IUP still can have the chance to get college scholarships.
Aside from getting study abroad experience, IUP of Unpad also offers students an opportunity to experience the international academic atmosphere. Students can also participate in the international community until they prepare themselves early to enter the global market.
“Thus, there will be no barrier for socializing and communicating with international people,” stated Anas.
This year, the student capacity for IUP is 40 students for each study program. Particularly for study programs of Dentistry, the student capacity is open to 30 students. This program uses English as the language of instruction, and the curriculum is based on the curriculum of the partner universities.
Anas said that the IUP assessment is based on academic reports and English proficiency, as proven by TOEFL/TOEP/ELT/TKBI or IELTS certificates from the institutions recognized by Unpad. The assessment of academic reports will be focused on 10 courses.
The announcement of IUP’s admission will be announced on June 8th. Anas said that the announcement of IUP will be opened earlier than the UTBK announcement. “So, there is a certainty and prospective students can start preparing for classes earlier,” he concluded.
