The Medicine Faculty at Universitas Dian Nuswantoro (Udinus) has been field assessed, particularly its Doctor Profession Education Department. The department was assessed by a group of assessors from the Institute of Higher Education Independent Accreditation for Health Science (LAM-PTKes). The assessment lasted for four days, from March 19 to 22, 2025.

The assessors were warmly welcomed by the Rector of Udinus, Prof. Pulung Nurtantio Andono, S.T., M.Kom., who was accompanied by the Head of the Dian Nuswantoro Foundation—Lakshiputri Arnindita, S.Sos., M.M., the Chairman of the Dian Nuswantoro Foundation—Tri Rustanti, S.E., M.M., and the Head of the Senate at Udinus, Prof. Dr. Ir.

During his opening speech, the rector explained that the assessment aimed to directly review the condition of the Medicine Faculty. It mainly reviewed the facilities, human resources, faculty members, teaching hospitals, and partners.

“This visit served as an important step in the accreditation process. Even though the Medicine Faculty is the newest faculty at Udinus, having only been operational for two years, we will do our best so the accreditation process can run well and get the best possible results,” the rector uttered.

During their visit, the assessors, led by Prof. Dr. Adi Koesoema Aman, Sp.PK(KH), was also present. On that occasion, Prof. Adi was accompanied by four other assessors, including Dr. dr.

He also highlighted the importance of preparing the teaching hospital, as it was essential and a part of the medical education standard.

“We will see the entire condition of the faculty and the teaching hospital. This is because in medical education, teaching hospitals hold a crucial role in sustaining students’ practical skills,” he revealed on Thursday, March 20, 2025, in the conference room on the first floor of the H building at Udinus.
