Currently, Campus 3 is still under construction and there is still one faculty (PGSD) that is active. The rest of the lecture activities are on Campus 1 and Campus 2. After that, a discussion was held in the Dean’s Room of the Faculty of Science. Suhardi emphasized to students that there is no need to be embarrassed if they really need it. They should remain enthusiastic in looking for scholarships and changing their lives in the future. In addition, the MBKM program is still being carried out for UNCP students but with a new scheme and is being adjusted to UNCP. This is input for the VDMI program going forward.
