From the Head of Study Program
Welcome to the Geological Engineering Study Program of Trisakti University.
Assalaamualaykum warohmatulloohi wabarokaatuh.
All praise and gratitude, we pray to the presence of Allah SWT, who has bestowed His grace so that Geological Engineering Study Program can still stand for 37 years.
Geological Engineering Study Program, is a StudyProgram founded by the Oil Company Consortium in 1980, which has a noble purpose, namely to nationalize the experts of the Oil Company at that time. The founder were Ir. Mochamad Thamrin, the late Ir. A. Pulunggono and Ir. Bambang Sutarso. For 37 years of standing, there have been many periods, up and down, experienced by the Geological Engineering Study Program. The number of students which is an important factor for a study program, has experienced a very critical point in the year 1997 that only got 7 students who are interested to enroll in the Study Program.
Alhamdulillah, recently Geological Engineering Study Program has a sufficient number of active students, which is almost 700 students. Every effort has been made to develop the Geological Engineering Study Program. In the field of education and teaching, continuous efforts to prepare and present the right curriculum and are needed in accordance with its era and at this time has been using the Indonesian National Qualification Framework Curriculum (KKNI).
Lecturers are also pursued entirely to have Doctoral Degree (S3), by giving the Task of Learning to the Lecturers. Services to Students and Lecturers are also optimized by providing the best facilities, through the renovation of all classrooms, laboratory, faculty rooms and public facilities; as well as renewed almost all of the laboratory equipment owned. Cooperation with stakeholders has also been activated, both nationally and internationally, whose benefits are also returned to Tridharma Higher Education activities. In the field of cooperation, the Study Program successfully own a set of computers for Geophysical Laboratory, from PERTAMINA and PGN; while cooperation with foreign parties, Akita University Japan, Study Program successfully has a set of microscopes for microfossils which is worth almost 5 billion rupiah. Grant software from PT Micromine and PT Schlumberger, worth tens to hundreds of billions of rupiah. Students' activities are also facilitated through the Geological Engineering Student Association (HMTG), the Student Section of the Indonesian Geologist Association (SM IAGI) and the American Association of Petroleum Geology Student Chapter (AAPGSC) Trisakti, which has achievements at international level.
Alumni of Geology Engineering Program have many positions that have a decisive position for the progress of this beloved country, in the fields of energy, infrastructure and other fields. Among others: the Governor of DKI Jakarta period 2014-2017, Ir. Basuki
Tjahaya Purnama; President Director of PT Timah (open), Ir. Reza Pahlevi; CEO of PT Saka Energi Indonesia, Ir. Tumbur Parlindungan and many more. Donations from Alumni to Prodi have also been conducted as laboratory equipments, guest lectures and cooperation among foreign institutions such as Akita University, Japan (Dr. Santi Dwi Pratiwi, ST, M.Sc., Rendy, ST., M.Sc).
For the next program, Geology Engineering Program will prioritize improvement in the field of research that can produce reliable publications in accredited journals both nationally and internationally, in order to enhance our Tridharma activities. So this welcome, hopefully what has been strived and aspired to get blessing from Him and provide benefits for the people.
