UIII Takes a Step Towards Global Engagement with New Digital Media Program

The Universitas Islam Internasional Indonesia (UIII) has officially launched its Digital Media and Innovation Program on March 1, 2023, in response to the needs assessment for universities to inform, engage and connect with global communities.

The program is specially designed for UIII students and media experts who are interested in developing the university's media platform for the website or social media. Its primary goal is to reach a wider audience while providing a platform for members to channel their skills and expertise.

After careful consideration of the program's initial framework and conceptualization, as well as a competitive recruitment process, UIII is pleased to announce the selection of Batch #1 participants.

These participants come from diverse backgrounds of expertise and nationalities. Given the significance of the program, it is hoped that it will continue to run long-term, and UIII encourages others to join the team in the next cohorts.
