In order to prepare the next generation to be superior and efficient, the Faculty of Engineering, Universitas Brawijaya (FTUB) is holding Student Work Camp (KKM) XLV in 2025. This activity, which has been a tradition for 45 years, is a real implementation of the Tri Dharma of Higher Education, especially in service to public.

The service packaged in the XLV Student Work Camp (KKM) cannot be separated from the implementation of the Tri Dharma of Higher Education in society, which has been going on for 45 years.

It is hoped that KKM XLV can become a forum for students to develop soft skills, creativity and a social spirit. Through this activity, students not only learn theory in class, but are also invited to apply their knowledge directly in solving problems faced by society. Apart from that, KKM is also an opportunity to strengthen relations between FTUB and the surrounding community.

Apart from that, this activity is also expected to increase FTUB’s synergy with the Community and Regional Government, so that the role of Higher Education in development can become more real.

On this occasion, the group immediately inspected the location of the participant/committee base camp and the provision of infrastructure to support activities.

In his direction, Prof. Ir. Hadi Suyono, S.T., MT., Ph.D., IPU., ASEAN Eng., APEC Eng., reminded the committee of the readiness of supporting facilities for the activities which will take place from 3-6 February 2025.

“Prepare this activity well, please pay attention to the preparation of infrastructure, procurement of water needs and installation, toilets, tents, public kitchen and electricity supply as best as possible,” said the Dean.

The safety and comfort of participants and committee members during the activity must be prioritized, continued the Dean.

In this review, the Chief Executive of KKM XLV, Dr. Ir. Redi Bintarto, ST., M.Eng.Pract also provided an explanation and description regarding the KKM implementation plan and location readiness to all Faculty and Department Leaders.

This KKM activity, which is entering its 45th year, will last for 4 days from 3-6 February 2025 at Kucur Village, Kec. Dau Malang Regency. [lia]
