In August, a total of 58 undergraduate students successfully completed their thesis defense as one of the requirements for graduation. This defense marks the final stage of the students' academic journey, where they present the results of their research before a panel of examiners.

In this final defense, the students' work was not limited to theses. Those who managed to publish their articles in reputable journals could use this as a graduation requirement, though they still had to present their work in a defense.

The success of these students' thesis defenses also reflects their academic achievements and contributions to the development of knowledge within the campus community. The thesis defense is a highly anticipated moment, serving as a stepping stone toward either a professional career or further academic pursuits.

The success of these 58 students is expected to inspire others in completing their studies.

The MOKAKU activities for the faculty and department took place on August 27, 2024. The Head of the Sociology Education Department enthusiastically delivered a welcoming speech, saying, "We are very excited to welcome the new generation of future leaders."

In addition to the welcoming speech from the department head, the MOKAKU event was also filled with a series of activities, such as introductions to faculty and academic staff, a virtual campus tour, and various discussion sessions designed to facilitate interactions between new students and their senior peers.

A total of 94 new students in Sociology Education enthusiastically participated in the MOKAKU activities. With the successful implementation of MOKAKU, the Department of Sociology Education hopes that the new students can adapt well and are ready to face the challenging learning process while contributing to advancing sociological studies in Indonesia.
