and Social Affairs (ULSA),
Vietnam, represented by
Ms. Nguyen Lan Huong

formulated three years
ago. One of several
highlight programs
including 2+2 program
which allows Vietnamese students who have completed a 2 year-study program
in ULSA, Vietnam, to continue another 2 year-study program in PresUniv,
Indonesia. What is so special about 2+2 program in PresUniv? Jhanghiz
Syahrivar, the Head of Public Relations of the University, said, “Since our first
establishment, President University has aggressively attracted overseas students
to study in Indonesia. 2+2 program with other reputable universities around the
world allows even more overseas students to study in President University.
While there are many universities in Indonesia which encourage and send our
local bright students abroad, we simply do the opposite. And that is to attract
bright overseas students to study in Indonesia hence enabling our University and
our country to be one of favorite
study destinations in South East
Asia!”
The deliverance of 36
Vietnamese students by one of
reputable universities in Vietnam,
ULSA, was the true sign of trust
and acknowledgement from a
foreign University towards the
quality of President University,
Indonesia.
WELCOME OUR FOREGIN STUDENTS ARRIVING IN INDONESIA
PresUniv welcomes foreign students from China (54 students), Vietnam (36 students), South Korea (6 Students) and England
(1 student). We hope that the students will enjoy their studies as much as PresUniv will enjoy helping them to realize their
dreams and future careers.

Innovation Among University Students
Thursday, 15 th September 2011,
President University in collaboration with
S.D. Darmono, the founder and CEO of
PT. JABABEKA, tbk., conducted a
seminar entitled “INNOVATON” at the
auditorium of Charles Himawan,
President University,
C i k a r a n g . T h e
seminar started at 9
sharp in the
morning and was
hosted by A.B.M
Witono, the Head
of Business and
Administration of
President University.
During the seminar,
Darmono asserted
the importance of
i n n o v a t i o n i n
industrial sector.
Innovation was
essential to remain
excel with other
competitors during
the globalization era
regardless the type
and size of the
industry. When
doing some innovation, economic value
of the innovation had to be considered.
No matter how innovative a product or a
service was, if it did not possess any
economic value, then it would be
pointless.
Darmono as the founder of President
University encouraged all students to get
their hands “dirty” or to get hands on
experience before graduating from
the University. He said that some
theories learned in the classrooms
and good academic scores were not
enough to support learning
experiences, let alone to guarantee
success in life. Students must also
learn some practical skills which could
only be obtained by being an intern in
a company. Moreover, he said that
many companies within Jababeka
Industrial Estate were open for
President University’s students who
wished to gain working experience
and some pocket money. Darmono
remained all students of President
University that their rivals while seeking
for future employments were not
limited to local graduates only, but also
overseas students from reputable
universities in the world hence English
became compulsory.
During the question and answer
session, a student
asked whether
Indonesia as a new
emerging force
should revolutionize
i t s e c o n o m i c
sectors. Darmono
r e s p o n d e d b y
a s s e r t i n g t h a t
innovation was
indeed revolution!
By doing some
innovation in our
economic sectors in
terms of products,
services, procedures
and p rocesses,
p o l i c i e s , a n d
technologies, we had
h e l p e d
r e v o l u t i o n i z i n g
Indonesia as a
whole.
The inspiring seminar which lasted for 2
hours was attended by Prof. Dr. Ermaya
Suradinata, the Rector of President
University, along with several hundreds
of the University’s students.
A Thousand for ONE
President University (PresUniv) through
Green Planet Supporters (GPS) and
Dirventure (DV) in cooperation with
Toshiba and PT. Jababeka Tbk. organized
A Thousand for One (1000 trees planting)
on Thursday, September 8, 2011 at
PresUniv’s campus. The event was
attended by 150 participants as a form of
awareness of Student Executive Board of
President University (GPS and DV) to
environment. GPS and DV realize about
many existing industries in Jababeka
surrounding, ± 1500 industries, will cause
environmental problems. For those
reasons, GPS and DV want to protect
environment and educate the
communities about saving our
environment is obligation of all parties
without any exception. On this occasion
GPS and DV also want the younger
generation as successor to nation have a
sensitivity of importance green lifestyle,

The Enchanting Culture Night 2011
L a s t F r i d a y ,
9 th September 2011,
President University’s
students of batch 2011
enjoyed a unique
experience of Culture
Night at Information
T e c h n o l o g y a n d
Communication (ICT)
T r a i n i n g C e n t e r ,
Jababeka, Cikarang. The
Culture Night is an
annual event held by
President University to
expose the University’s
freshmen with various cultures from
many countries performed by their
fellow friends from Indonesia and
abroad. Attended by not less than 1,100
freshmen, not to mention sophomores,
making this year’s Culture Night the
biggest Culture Night ever held at
President University.
What was so unique about this year’s
Culture Night? As a start, this year’s
Culture Night was held at ICT instead
of President University’s main campus
for the reason that the committee of
the event felt the urge to bring about
a more unique experience in
comparison to last year’s event. The
location of ICT which was just few
hundred meters away from the
University’s main campus and student
housing top up with its private
location away from the residential
houses was very ideal to conduct
various loud band performances and
dances. To name some in this event:
Jainong Dance, Prekustik and Dinda
Catmusic. The ignition of fireworks
at the end of the event signified that
President University’s Culture Night
2011 officially end.
All in all, the Culture Night 2011 was
truly an amazing and memorable event
held this year by President University. It
served as mean to introduce and
