Student and Alumni Affairs provides a few services to help students to be work-ready through a series of programs such as career seminars, CV reviews, interview practice, and job information sharing of internships and full-time employment.
In order to help students understand whether their career goals match their interests and personalities, students are also invited to join personality and job-fit assessments. All programs are offered to students without charge, and all program invitations are sent to students by university email and WA (WhatsApp) groups, therefore students should be active in checking their email and WA messages.
Internships are required for all students to learn from industry and society. It is also an experiential opportunity to apply academic knowledge gained in the classroom to a real-world situation. The Career Services office will assist students in identifying appropriate internship opportunities from industries in multiple fields. Faculty or lecturers also provide support in recommending students to corporate and community partners participating in their Industry Advisory Boards. Students are required to join a mandatory credit-based internship in conjunction with their academic timeline, but have the option to join a second, non-credit internship to enrich their work portfolios.
Graduates are always invited to alumni gatherings, social events, webinars, and other selected events which are open to the public. These activities are coordinated by the Alumni Association and Student and Alumni Affairs. Alumni participate in these programs to enhance their knowledge, expand their professional networks, and for personal enrichment. Alumni also have the opportunity to participate as presenters or speakers, especially to share their vocational experiences to benefit current students in their career preparation.
Sampoerna University offers various types of workshops, training and certification classes which are designed to help students to succeed academically and professionally. These programs are supported by professionals from industry, experienced alumni and professional trainers from different industries and backgrounds. They help students learn about life skills, soft skills and competences which are important in assisting students to succeed with their life goals, in academics, or in future life after graduation.
Aside from trainings on campus, we also invite students to participate in cocurricular activities conducted by external parties, such as seminars and training activities, conferences, as well as competitions. Students will be supported to join competitions and conferences at both the national and international level, and they also earn special acknowledgement and reward from the University for their achievements. All these programs encourage students to develop their skills and grow towards achieving success.
The Sampoerna University health clinic provides basic medical services at no charge to students. The clinic is located on the 19th floor, next to the Counseling Room. A doctor or medical staff person is available from Monday to Friday from 10.00-15.00.
Student Affairs also invites doctors from local hospitals to give Health Talk Sessions to inform students about living a healthy life and the importance of taking preventive measures for specific disease treatments which are important for young people.
All first-year students will learn about campus life through the New Student Orientation organized by the office of Student and Alumni Affairs (SAA). It is conducted just before each academic year starts and it will help students transition into college life. They will meet new friends in sessions designed to provide them with information while getting acquainted with members of the campus community.
Senior year students will lead these sessions and will become mentors who can help freshmen adapt to campus life. Students will also meet faculty members and staff who will orient students to academic programs and services. At the end of the orientation, students will get Student ID’s, Campus Access Cards, a Sampoerna University Jacket, Wi-fi Access, a University Email Address, and other resources related to facilities including library and student portal access.
Learn from world-class faculty, connect with a global network, and gain practical skills that prepare you for a successful career.
