A Delegation of Mathematics Students from the FMIPA UNEJ, Participated in the 2025 SATRIA DATA Competition.

Mathematics students from the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, University of Jember (UNEJ) participated in the 2025 Statistika Ria dan Festival Sains Data (SATRIA DATA) National Statistics Competition (NSC) in the Master’s Room of the Mathematics Department, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, University of Jakarta (15/9). Six students participated, and they had to solve extensive statistical problems and analyze data carefully to provide appropriate solutions. During the competition, they were accompanied by Mathematics Department lecturers Firda Fadri, S.Si., M.Si., and Nadia Kholifia, S.Si. M.Si. SATRIA DATA participants had to solve problems on probability theory, statistical theory/mathematical statistics, and categorical data analysis. “The preliminary round was conducted online with a CBT model plus supervision via the zoom application using participants’ mobile phones,” explained Firda.

After the NSC, the BDC competition field group was given mentoring to achieve good data accuracy. Given three opportunities to upload data, and compete closely with groups at other universities, it is expected to be able to process data with high accuracy. Mathematics students also participated in SATRIA DATA 2025 in other fields, namely the Statistics Essay Competition (SEC), Statistics Infographic Competition (SIC), and Big Data Competition (BDC). This year SATRIA DATA was organized by the Belmawa Directorate, Kemdiktisaintek in collaboration with the Islamic University of Indonesia. Continue reading

Guest Lecture on Statistics and Data Science in Business Competition Analysis by KPPU Commissioner Dr. Eugenia Mardanugraha

The importance of implementing a quantitative approach, including statistics and econometrics, in identifying and evaluating the behavior of business actors that have the potential to violate the principles of fair competition. Revealed by Dr. Eugenia Mardanugraha, S.Si., M.E. Commissioner of Komisi Pengawas Persaingan Usaha (KPPU) who is also a Lecturer at the Faculty of Economics and Business, University of Indonesia. In the guest lecture “Statistics and Data Science in Business Competition Analysis” held by the Data Science Research Group and MOCO, Department of Mathematics, FMIPA UNEJ (7/7). Dr. Eugenia also explained that Law No. 5 of 1999 is the basis for KPPU to prevent monopolistic practices, cartels, and unfair market control. The guest lecture was held offline at the UNEJ Entrepreneurship Building and online on the UNEJ FMIPA Youtube channel.

Previously at the opening, the Dean of FMIPA UNEJ, Prof. Drs. Dafik, M.Sc., Ph.D. invited the participants to get to know KPPU and the role of statistics and data science in business competition. “It is an honor for FMIPA, Dr. Eugenia from KPPU is pleased to attend and give a guest lecture for lecturers, students, practitioners in reviewing the role of statistics and data science for business competition analysis,” he said. A similar thing was also conveyed by Dr. Kiswara Agung Santoso, S.Si. M.Kom.

FMIPA UNEJ Invites Prof. Edy Tri Baskoro from ITB, Discussing the Opening of a New Study Program

FMIPA Jember University will open several study programs, including an actuarial study program in the Mathematics Department. In the initial stage, Prof. Edy Tri Baskoro, M.Sc., Ph.D., from FMIPA ITB, discussed the establishment of an actuarial study program (14/6). The Dean of FMIPA UNEJ, Prof. Drs. Dafik, M.Sc., Ph.D., invited the task force team to establish a new study program for the Department of Mathematics to take advantage of this discussion. “The presence of Prof. Edy from ITB is a great opportunity to explore what needs to be prepared when opening a new study program, in this case actuarial,” he said. Present at the event were the Chair and Secretary of the Mathematics Department, as well as the preparation team for the establishment of a new study program in mathematics.

Prof. Edy said that the undergraduate actuarial study program at FMIPA ITB is a scientific discipline that applies mathematics and statistics to analyze and manage risk. “The areas analyzed include insurance, both life insurance and general insurance, pension funds, investment and banking,” he explained. It is also said that graduates of the actuarial undergraduate study program have career opportunities to become actuaries, investment managers, risk managers or can also be academics as lecturers or researchers. The first step is to classify the courses and teaching staff who will be involved in teaching in a study program that can be said to be new in Indonesia. Continue reading

Mathematics FMIPA UNEJ Student Delegation Participates in the 2024 Satria Data Competition

FMIPA UNEJ Mathematics students took part in the Statistika Ria dan Festival Sains Data (SATRIA DATA) competition in the National Statistics Competition (NSC) at Mathematics Laboratory 1 FMIPA UNEJ (3/6). Followed by 11 students, they will solve broad statistical problems and analyze the data carefully so they can provide the right solution. Accompanied by Mathematics lecturer Firda Fadri, S.Si., M.Si, students must solve questions on probability theory, statistical theory/satematics statistics, and categorical data analysis. “Online preliminary round with a model like UTBK plus supervision via the zoom application,” explained Firda.

Apart from NSC, together with the team from FASILKOM, students also take part in SATRIA DATA in other fields, namely the Statistics Essay Competition (SEC), Statistics Infographic Competition (SIC), and Big Data Competition (BDC). Deputy Dean III FMIPA UNEJ, Dr. Edy Supriyanto, S.Si., M.Si., said that SATRIA DATA’s annual agenda will always be supported and provided with assistance from competent lecturers. “We will support SATRIA DATA from mentoring to supporting facilities so that our students excel at the national level,” he said. According to the schedule, the final or national-level implementation will be held at Telkom University, Bandung. Continue reading
