In a remarkable achievement, Iin Afrianti Umar has been named the best graduate of the Faculty of Education for the second cohort at Universitas Islam Internasional Indonesia (UIII). With an outstanding GPA of 3.96 out of 4.00, Iin’s dedication and hard work have set a benchmark for academic excellence.
Balancing the dual roles of student and mother, Iin’s journey is a living example of resilience and determination. Her adeptness at managing her academic responsibilities alongside her duties as a mom has earned her widespread admiration from both peers and faculty.
In addition to her academic achievements, Iin was one of three students selected for a research student visit program at Deakin University in Australia. In May 2024, she had the opportunity to work closely with Deakin experts, gaining invaluable insights and guidance for her thesis.
Reflecting on her journey, Iin shared, “Balancing my studies and responsibilities as a mother was challenging, but it taught me the importance of time management and perseverance. Today is not the end, but a new beginning,” said Iin during the faculty’s judicium on August 27, 2024.
At the same event, Prof. Nina Nurmila, Dean of the Faculty of Education, congratulated all the graduating students from the faculty, encouraging them to never stop learning. “Just because you graduated today, does not mean that you stop learning. You should continue learning either through publishing more research articles or pursuing a PhD,” said the dean.
Congratulations to all graduating students, especially for Iin whose success story poses as a shining example of what can be achieved with perseverance and support. Her journey not only highlights the quality of education at UIII but also serves as an inspiration to fellow students balancing multiple roles.

Enhancing Quality Assurance Skills at UGM Training
Enhancing Quality Assurance Skills at UGM Training
August 13, 2024
Contributor: Moch Faisal Karim | Editor: Supriyono
Yogyakarta, August 10, 2024 – Four academics from Universitas Islam Internasional Indonesia (UIII) recently participated in an intensive training program on the Internal Quality Assurance System (SPMI) and Internal Quality Audit (AMI) at Yogyakarta’s Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM). The training, held from August 7th to 10th, 2024, aimed to enhance the skills of UIII’s faculty members in quality assurance.
The team included Moch Faisal Karim, PhD, from the Faculty of Social Sciences, Fajar Hirawan, PhD, from the Faculty of Economics and Business, Bambang Sumintono, PhD, from the Faculty of Education, and Faried Fachrudin Saenong, PhD, from the Faculty of Islamic Studies.
The four-day program was divided into two key segments. The initial two days were dedicated to understanding the SPMI framework and its practical implementation. The participants engaged in comprehensive discussions on national policies related to the quality assurance system (SPM Dikti), developed by the Directorate General of Higher Education, Research, and Technology of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology of the Republic of Indonesia, and examined the relationship between internal and external quality assurance systems. They also explored how the internal quality assurance system is integrated into UGM’s academic processes.
The latter half of the training focused on practical applications of AMI. AMI or Audit Mutu Internal, is a structured, independent, and recorded process designed to verify that the activities within an organization are performed according to established procedures and that the outcomes align with the standards needed to achieve the institution's objectives. The participants took part in role-playing exercises and simulated internal quality audits, gaining hands-on experience in planning, conducting, and reporting on quality audits within their respective faculties. The training concluded with presentations of audit reports and discussions on best practices for follow-up actions.
The training was part of UIII’s broader initiatives to elevate quality standards across its faculties and prepare for upcoming accreditation processes. Additionally, it aims to increase the number of certified internal auditors within the university, thereby strengthening internal quality assurance mechanisms. Organized by UGM, the training provided valuable insights and practical skills that will significantly enhance the quality of education and research at UIII.
