Studying in Ireland through IISMA was a lot of firsts for me: first time going away from home for a long period of time, first time going overseas, and first time studying abroad. Aside from now having something to casually flaunt about during family reunions, there are many perks and rewards that come with it. They can be divided into three categories: education-wise, soft skills, and personal experiences.

Who doesn’t love learning while traveling? To answer that question, let us take a look at the latest English Department UGM’s program Academic and Cultural Exchange UGM-NUS 2019.

Menyadari akan pentingnya adanya sebuah konferensi mahasiswa sebagai forum untuk diseminasi ide atau gagasan, diskusi karya ilmiah, serta perlunya meningkatkan minat dan gairah mahasiswa untuk melakukan penelitian yang mempunyai luaran karya ilmiah, maka Prodi Sastra Inggris, Fakultas Ilmu Budaya, Universitas Gadjah Mada untuk pertama kalinya akan menggelar sebuah konferensi mahasiswa yang tidak hanya diselenggarakan untuk mahasiswa internal Prodi Sastra Inggris UGM tetapi juga terbuka untuk diikuti oleh seluruh mahasiswa Prodi Inggris dari universitas lain di seluruh Indonesia. Konferensi mahasiswa program sarjana (S1) ini dimaksudkan untuk memperkenalkan mahasiswa S1 terhadap forum-forum ilmiah sedari dini sehingga mahasiswa akan mempunyai kepercayaan diri untuk berpartisipasi aktif dalam forum ilmiah.
