The ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵ Center Quality Assurance (PPM) is ramping up its preparations for the accreditation visit for the Master of Finance on Sustainable Finance Program at the Faculty of Economics and Business (FEB), which is scheduled for March 16–19, 2025. 

A preparatory meeting was held on February 28, 2025, led by Acting Head of PPM, Suparto, Ph.D., and attended by key stakeholders, including Dr. Phil. Syafiq Hasyim, Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs, Dean of FEB, Prof. Dian Masyita, Head of the Master of Finance Program, Rizky Wisnoentoro, Ph.D., as well as faculty members and quality assurance teams.  

The meeting focused on ensuring that the program is fully prepared for the accreditation process. Suparto, PhD, emphasized the importance of learning from the accreditation experiences of the MA and PhD programs at FEB, advising the Master of Finance team to finalize all necessary documents and conduct a simulation of the visit. He also stressed the need for proper coordination with assessors, particularly in handling logistics such as accommodation and transportation. 

Dr. Syafiq Hasyim underscored the significance of this accreditation as a strategic step in strengthening ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵ’s academic standing. Given that the visit falls during Ramadan, he also urged the team to make adequate arrangements for the assessors' accommodations. 

Dean of FEB, Prof. Dian Masyita, highlighted that previous accreditation processes for the MA and PhD programs had been successfully conducted by adhering to the nine applicable accreditation standards and ensuring the faculty met the required qualifications. She noted that a technical simulation would be carried out to ensure a smooth visit. 

Meanwhile, Head of the Master of Finance Program, Rizky Wisnoentoro, Ph.D., reported that the accreditation document draft had been reviewed externally and met expectations. However, he pointed out a key challenge that he needs to work on such as the potential for the assessors may have differing perspectives on sustainable finance, a relatively new concept in Indonesia’s academic landscape. 

With rigorous preparations underway, ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵ aims for a successful accreditation visit that will not only enhance the Master of Finance Program but also contribute to the university’s broader academic reputation.
