Program Studi Meteorologi

Praise be to God Almighty, on Friday, March 12, 2021, the final session of the April 2021 graduation period has been held. Because the Covid-19 pandemic has not ended, on this occasion the Meteorology Study Program held an Open Session in the form of a “Meteorology Scientific Webinar” in Order of the April 2021 Graduation Open Session.

The main series of the webinar is divided into 2 sessions, namely the presentation of the final project results from 3 trial participants for 10 minutes/participant and the presentation of the posters of the final project results which are divided into four rooms for 45 minutes. The following is an open session material packaged in the simplest possible language in the form of a poster presentation video (link below).

The graduates who held the Open Session were:

The following is the documentation of the “Meteorology Scientific Webinar” event in the context of the April 2021 Graduation Open Session for the Meteorology Study Program.

Congratulations to the April 2021 Graduates of Meteorology Study Program. Hopefully the knowledge gained during the lecture period can provide benefits to the wider community.

On July 4th 2019, one of lecturer in meteorology study program successfully defended his doctoral dissertation. The Meteorology Study Program congratulates Dr. Edi Riawan, MT. who has completed FITB Earth Science Study Program Doctoral Degree. Dr. Riawan finished his doctoral research related to hydrometeorological hazard. His dissertation entitled “Pengaruh Distribusi Curah Hujan Yang Tidak Merata Secara Ruang dan Waktu Terhadap Debit Sungai Ciliwung”.

On April 24th to 26th, two meteorology students (Rafiq Naufal Shidiq and Muhammad Arif Setyo Aji) and one geological engineering student (Ahmad Mujaddid) participated in the Geoscience Industrial Week 2019 (GIW 2019) organized by University of Malaya, Malaysia. The students, called themselves as The SIRES Team, wrote a science paper and participated in a poster competition, which is one of competitions held in GIW 2019: Quake It Off, Geo Escape, Poster, Photography, Invent at Zero, and Eco City: Design Your Future. The GIW 2019 not only held competitions, but also convened seminar sessions, workshops, and panel discussions. Although most discussions were related to geology and solid geophysics, the meteorology students were able to follow and obtained some insights since meteorology is a part of geoscience.

One discussion that is quite relevant to meteorology is the challenge of future energy use, which was held at a panel discussion entitled The Future of Geoscience for Sustainable Development. It discussed about renewable and non-renewable energy and its relationship with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) launched by the United Nations. In the discussion, the panelists explained that the use of renewable energy could not yet replace 100% of non-renewable energy due to the high demand and fulfillment of energy supply in the near future. Therefore, the production of fossil fuel-based energy is still being carried out. However, the use of renewable energy must also be developed simultaneously because it is more environmentally friendly and the potential for this energy is always available. According to one panelist who has worked in one of the biggest energy companies in Malaysia whose main product is fossil-based energy. His company has begun to develop renewable energy in the past 10 years, especially wind and solar energy. However, its development require a long process. This panel discussion made the students excited to look at the future optimistically from the scientific point of view that they are currently studying. The scientific field of meteorology has a significant relationship and potential to be able to contribute in providing solutions in the field of renewable energy

Finally, the students gained a lot of benefits the GIW 2019. They were given an opportunity to participate in competitions, to discuss, and to establish relationships with students from other countries in the field of geoscience. In addition, this event allows them to learn a little about the culture in the country they visited, especially related to academic system and campus life. This event hopefully will give them a lot of insights and opportunities to collaborate and to face global challenges in the field of meteorology and geoscience in future.
