BSI Explore 2026 to Begin Soon, Involving Students in Village Service Programs

Universitas Bina Sarana Informatika (UBSI), a digital creative university, is set to launch its "BSI Explore 2026" program, a community service initiative designed to immerse students in rural development.

The program aims to provide selected students with hands-on experience in applying their academic knowledge to real-world community needs. Participants will be deployed to 38 partner villages located in Indonesia's 3T regions – areas designated as Disadvantaged, Outermost, and Frontier.

This program is designed systematically to provide selected students the opportunity to directly apply the knowledge and skills gained during their studies in the community.

During their one-month stay, students will operate in teams of five, collaborating on projects tailored to the specific requirements of each local community. Ade Suriyadi, the head of BSI Explore 2026, highlighted the program's role in fostering experiential learning, enabling students to gain practical skills and a deeper understanding of societal challenges beyond the classroom.

Each student team will receive guidance from a Field Supervisor (Dosen Pendamping Lapangan - DPL) to ensure the effective execution of their work plans and the delivery of beneficial outcomes for both the community and the students themselves. Suriyadi expressed hope that the initiative will enhance students' adaptability, teamwork, and problem-solving abilities in practical settings, while also reinforcing UBSI's commitment to contributing to community development and empowerment.

For one month, participants will be placed in teams in 38 partner villages to carry out planned work programs. Each team of five students will be under the guidance of one Field Supervisor to ensure the achievement of the program's goals and outcomes.
