Hello! I’m Michele Malvina from Binus University Alam Sutera, Student Of Computer Science (SOCS). This is my very first post, and here I’m going to tell you about what happened during FEP, HTTP and how I feel about it.

FEP

Freshmen Enrichment Program is a series of orientation activities aimed at helping new Binusian in adapting to the system, regulations, and how to learn in the world of university.

FEP is divided into 3 parts, which are General Orientation, Academic Orientation and Campus Life Orientation.

There are several batches during General Orientation (GO), and I’m from the first batch (AAS08). During GO, there are some Buddy Coordinators (BC) that are willing to help us to know more about Binus University’s environment, the regulations and registration, the organization skills, etc.

There are Organization Skills in Binus University such as Himpunan Mahasiswa Jurusan (HMJ) , Unit Kegiatan Mahasiswa (UKM) and Komunitas.

HMJ (Student Association) is an organization that was formed based on common disciplines, contained in a study program within the scope of a particular faculty. Ex : HIMTI, HIMMAT, HIMDKV, HIMDI, etc.

UKM is a student organization that was formed to develop their interests, talents and specific expertise for the members in it. Ex : Keluarga Mahasiswa ( keagamaan ), BNNC, Binus English Club, BNAC, BVoice, Stamanara, etc.

Community such as BinusTV, TFI, CSC, BSSC, etc.

I, myself has already registred to join KMBD ( Keluarga Mahasiswa Buddhis Dhammavaddhana ) and HIMTI ( Himpunan Mahasiswa Teknik Informatika ).

The second orientation, which is Academic Orientation (AO) was held two weeks before uni starts. In AO, we were taught about our own curriculum of department, study skills, basic materials like algorithm & programming, to know and get closer with our lecturers and academic supervisors, etc.

Campus Life Orientation (CLO) is during our first semester. This is to help us adapt to the campus schedule and environment.

In my opinion, FEP really helps me adapt to my new environment, to know all about the regulations and registration, meeting new friends, and to learn the basic materials of Computer Science. I’d like to thank all the Buddy Coordinators, lecturers, academic supervisors, classmates and others for everything and makes FEP so fun and interesting and I’m very comfortable in it.

HTTP 2015 SHINE

For those who aren’t  Computer Science’s student, you probably are puzzled by what is HTTP and SHINE are.

HTTP is HIMTI Togetherness And Top Performance, which is a welcoming event only for Binusian SOCS 2019 that was specially organized by HIMTI.

HTTP 2015’s theme is SHINE that stands for Strengthening Harmony & Inspiring New Experiences.

This event cost a single person Rp 150.000, but it’s totally worth it. The event starts at 9.am and ends at around 6.pm. Joining the HTTP gives you some benefits such as Pengenalan Bahasa C ( PBC ), HIMTI exclusive pin, merchandise, HIMTI KIT 2015, lunch, E-certificate and transportation ( bus ) to where this event was held.

HTTP also presents special performance, band, dance, visualization, guest star, talk show, apps showcase, and many more. Sounds interesting right? For those that miss this event, you’ll surely regret it.

Thank you for reading my first post! I hope you like it. <3
