HMPS Mathematics has held a Concentration Socialization
The Department of Education HM-PS successfully held a Concentration Socialization on Saturday, May 17, 2025 in the 1st Floor Theatrical Room, Faculty of Science and Technology. This event raised the theme "Design Your Future and Equip Yourself to Conquer the Real World" which inspired students to be better prepared in determining the direction of their studies. This socialization was intended to provide an overview, understanding, and enthusiasm to active students of the Mathematics Study Program at UIN Sunan Kalijaga in choosing a concentration that suits their interests and goals. Concentration or interest is an important stage where students begin to focus on studying a particular field of science. In the Mathematics Study Program, there are four concentrations offered: Analysis, Applied, Statistics, and Algebra. With this activity, it is hoped that students can be more confident in determining their concentration and be ready to face the real world with the right provisions.
