Even so, this program recommends that students take courses completely different from the majors taken at their home university. “We at IISMA highly recommend taking a completely different subject.

You will also have many competencies that can be developed,” said Dian, finally explaining the goals and expectations of the IISMA program.

Universitas Islam Indonesia memiliki enam program beasiswa untuk membantu mahasiswa dalam pembiayaan kuliah. Kelengkapan berkas dan kualitas personal yang dideskripsikan dengan baik di motivation letter menjadi kunci.
Selain membantu meringankan biaya kuliah, meraih beasiswa penuh adalah kebanggaan tersendiri. Teatime kali ini, 25 Februari 2022, menghadirkan Fikri Haikal Ramadhan, mahasiswa International Program di Jurusan Ilmu Komunikasi Universitas Islam Indonesia, untuk mengupas tip dan trik memperoleh beasiswa penuh di UII. Haikal ini adalah salah satu penerima beasiswa Santri Unggulan. Acara bertajuk ‘Tips and Trick to be the Awardee of Santri Unggulan UII scholarship” ini dipandu oleh Arsila sebagai host.
Beasiswa ini adalah salah satu jenis beasiswa yang memberikan dukungan penuh. Beasiswa ini mendanai biaya kuliah dan biaya hidup, serta tempat tinggal. Beasiswa Santri Unggulan bertujuan memberikan bekal kepada kader-kader pemimpin umat di masa yang akan datang. Beasiswa ini juga berusaha menyiapkan santri yang siap konsep dan siap praktik. Santri PP UII (Pondok Pesantren UII) diharapkan mampu memantapkan dan memadukan antara agama, sains dan teknologi.
Haikal menyarankan untuk cermat dalam menyiapkan berkas untuk mendaftar beasiswa ini. Pastikan tidak ada satupun berkas yang kurang. Selain itu juga, penulisan esai dalam motivation letter. Haikal menyarankan agar dalam penulisan motivasi diri sedapat mungkin menunjukan karakter yang kuat untuk peningkatan kualitas diri. “Niat, intention. Bukan sekadar ingin kuliah gratis atau coba-coba. Tapi memang kita butuh dan kita improve,” jelas Haikal.

Perjalanan seorang mahasiswa yang broken home hingga mendapatkan beasiswa Unggulan Universitas Islam Indonesia (UII). Arul Sulaiman namanya. Percaya atau tidak, menurutnya, kekuatan sebuah ayat Al Qur’an mendongkraknya menjalani kehidupan yang sama sekali berbeda.
Dalam bincang santai Teatime, sebuah program obrolan santai sore yang diadakan rutin oleh international Program Ilmu Komunikasi UII, menghadirkan Arul Sulaiman. Teatime pada jumat 18 Februari 2022 ini bertajuk The Importance of the Personal Branding and Scholarship for Higher Education Student. Arul menceritakan kisah hidupnya dan bagaimana ia menjalani kuliahnya dengan Beasiswa Unggulan UII.
Arul tumbuh besar di tengah keluarga yang kurang harmoni. Orangtuanya berpisah saat ia usia kelas 1 Sekolah dasar. Hal itu membuatnya hidup dengan kondisi psikologis yang berantakan. “Aku nggak naik kelas dua kali. Saat itu aku kayak nggak terurus. Nggak pernah belajar, sering bolos sekolah,” ungkap Arul menceritakan kisahnya.
Di umur sekitar 10 tahun, Tuhan menunjukan keajaiban padanya. Arul begitu mengimani sebuah ayat dalam surat Al Baqarah 143 tentang sabar dan sholat sebagi penolong: Hai orang-orang yang beiman, jadikanlah sholat dan sabar sebagai penolongmu. Sesungguhnya, Allah bersama orang-orang yang sholat dan sabar. “Aku percaya itu. Saat itu aku aplikasikan semua itu. Di Al Baqarah ayat 143, aku ingat banget,” kenang Arul pada masa-masa kelamnya.
“aku aplikasikan itu. Aku sabar dan sholat. Dan aku jadi bisa berpikir apa yang seharusnya aku lakukan,” ungkap Arul. Mahasiswa yang sejak SMP memutuskan untuk tinggal sendiri ini terus menyibukan diri dengan berbagai kegiatan untuk berprestasi. “Aku harus survive. Aku ikut kegiatan yang bisa mengasah skill, ikut berbagai perlombaan baik tingkat kabupaten, hingga nasional bahkan internasional.”
“Hingga akhirnya aku mendapatkan beasiswa unggulan ini. aku harus menjadi lebih baik setiap hari,” ungkapan terakhir ini seolah menjadi jalan hidupnya sejak lama.
Kehidupan Kuliah Sebagai Mahasiswa
Mendapatkan beasiswa ini menjadi salah satu kebanggaan karena awardee harus melewati seleksi yang cukup ketat dengan hanya memilih 20 orang dari ribuan pelamar. “Beasiswa ini menjadi salah satu yang membuat aku, dengan latar belakang kehidupanku yang nggak naik dua kali, saya makin tertantang memperbaiki diri, makin baik di kemudian hari.”
Terlebih, dengan mendapatkan beasiswa unggulan ini mahasiswa dipersiapkan betul untuk menjadi mahasiswa yang berprestasi dan aktif. “KIta juga ada kelas persiapan khusus. Selain itu juga untuk bisa mempertahankan beasiswa, IPK tidak boleh kurang dari 3.7, dan juga harus aktif ikut PKM,” lanjut Arul. PKM adalah Program Kreatifitas Mahasiswa yang diadakan oleh Kemenristek Dikti.

Pandemic The pandemic has changed work patterns. There have been many new challenges. Like what? Monthly discussions held by the UII Communications Nadim try to raise it and find answers to these questions. Starting from changing online media strategies, and looking for various strategies and content tricks to win over readers, even amidst the Coronavirus siege.
This time, Nadim’s discussion invited a resource person named Muhammad Diast Reyhan Rafif to become a discussion partner for students at UII Communications. Diast is an alumnus of the 2017 batch of UII Communication Studies. His final research in his thesis examined Editorial Management in Reporting on the Cancellation of the National Football League Competition. Several media are used as research objects. Among them are detik.com, and okezone.com. Bolasport.com, Jawapos.com.
According to Diast, several online media are quite responsive and creative in dealing with reporting amid a pandemic. “Detik.com, for example, raised the human interest side during the pandemic. Regarding salary uncertainty amidst competition uncertainty, also player activities during the pandemic, including news of league I and league 2 uncertainties,” said Diast revealing one of his research results on Tuesday, 15 February 2022.
Another second, another dotcom media, and the rest. Bolasport, said Diast, provides football travel content, in the form of a timeline or memorable moments. That timeline is tracked year by year. Apart from that, bolasport also covers supporter activities during the pandemic. Even though it seems ordinary, you can see creative efforts meandering amidst the lack of events that could be sources of writing due to the cancellation of the National Football League competition.
Different Srategies from different medias
It’s no different, Okezone from the MNC group media has another strategy. “Okezone.com has soccertainment. It is a rubric that reports on player activities when the leagues haven’t started, for example, player support, federation support, health support when a player or coach is exposed to corona,” said Diast, who also served as Chair of the Communication Editor’s Journalism Club. this. According to Diast, this rubric talks a lot about international football because it still attracts a lot of interest from readers.
If Legal publishes a lot of international sports news because it is liked by many readers, Jawapos focuses more on national sports news. For example, the news raised is about the activities of coaching players outside the field. Or also the theme of the player transfer market because there are many players abroad. This includes not forgetting to also cover PSSI’s steps to run the league.
Ifa Zulkurnaini, the moderator of the discussion, also asked if there was further research that could be done in the context of sports journalism. Narayana, UII Communication Lecturer, who was also present as a participant in the discussion said that there was still something that could be researched about sports journalism. Not only what Diast did, in football, but other research could also be carried out on how other sports journalism media cover amid a pandemic, especially for sports other than football. “Football can still go on, but what about basketball, badminton, and others? How can sports journalists and the media cover and survive during a pandemic? Maybe that’s what can be continued,” said Nara trying to argue in the middle of the discussion.
