Magister in Fitopatologi

Vision

Becoming a reference institution for postgraduate education that develops plant disease, with a strengthening in an environmentally friendly approach and biotechnology to produce technology for managing plant pests and producing globally competitive graduates capable of supporting sustainable agriculture.

Mission

  1. Carrying out quality and highly competitive postgraduate education programs in the science of plant diseases that support plant protection.
  2. Develop basic and applied sciences in the field of plant disease based on biological resources through quality research.
  3. Promoting science and technology in the field of plant disease that supports plant protection to improve human welfare.

Purpose

The availability of human resources as educators and / or researchers who are able to develop their knowledge in the fields of etiology, systematic causes of plant diseases (fungi, bacteria, viruses, nematodes), pathogenesis and plant responses to pathogens, epidemiology of plant diseases, and control of plant diseases.

The availability of human resources as practitioners and / or technocrats policy makers who understand the concept of development and the principles of controlling plant diseases that are environmentally friendly and sustainable.

Achievement Goals and Strategies

The objectives of the study program are (a) produce graduates who are professional, quality, and relevant to the needs of the community, (b) produce plant (disease) protection technology based on biological, genetic and chemical resources in accordance with the latest scientific and technological developments, (c ) building human resources with a strong scientific basis of plant diseases based on environmental and biotechnological approaches, and excellent and superior facilities / infrastructure.

The strategy to achieve the goals and objectives above is (a) to develop curriculum tailored to the relevance of the development of knowledge and the needs of the labor market. This is done periodically at least every 5 years; (b) enhance a credible and accountable academic information and service system, and realize an education management system oriented to improving quality; (c) develop and carry out research activities and services to the community so that each year can be obtained by plant protection technology that can be promoted.

Study Program Competencies

The main competence of Phytopathology graduates is the ability to develop knowledge in the field of plant disease etiology, systematic causes of plant diseases (bacteria, fungi, nematodes, viruses), pathogenesis, epidemiology of plant diseases, and disease control. In addition to having these core competencies, Ph.D. Phatopathology graduates are also expected to be able to analyze the conditions of plant disease problems in the field and provide alternative solutions to problems.

Awarded Title

Students who have completed all stages of the study program are awarded the title of Master of Science or Master of Science.

Curriculum

Various courses are given to students of the master of science program in PS Phytopathology with the aim of providing basic knowledge, methods of analysis and their application. In the first semester the courses taken by students are compulsory subjects taken by PPs (PPS 550 English and STK 511 Statistical Analysis) and Phytopathology Study Program (PTN 510 Fitopathology). In the first semester students can also take one elective course and it is generally recommended to take elective courses in. In the second semester the courses taken by students are 3 compulsory courses of study programs (Seed Pathology, Plant Pathogenesis, and Research Methods and Scientific Writing) and 1 elective course within or outside the study program. In the third semester students take 3 compulsory courses of study programs (PTN 625 Epidemiology and Disease Management, PTN 628 Plant Biological Control, PPSTN 601 Colloquium) and 1 elective course in or outside the study program. Elective courses taken by students in semester 1 to 3 are subjects that are in line with student interests and can support the implementation of thesis research. In the third semester, students can apply for research by first proposing a research plan. Research activities can be started in the 3rd semester and continued in the 4th semester. With this time distribution, students are expected to be able to complete thesis research at the end of the 4th semester. The results of the study were then presented in the form of a seminar on results through coordination with the Postgraduate School. In addition, students are also required to publish their research results in scientific journals, as a condition for taking the final thesis.
