 “Improving Responsibility, Confidence, and Solidarity to be a Critical Generation”

Before starting lectures, each university always introduces the culture and scope conditions to new students. Because higher education is very different from high school, good adaptation is needed. Prospective students are expected to not only know and know who and what their environment is but also who and what they really are and where they will go to in the future.

Based on the above, we from the Chemistry Department Student Association of Surabaya State University have a mission to help build a generation that is scientific, critical, creative, innovative, dynamic, independent, and dedicated, moral, develops the spirit of entrepreneurship and is able to work together in social life, nation and state. In this period we welcome new students with the Pre-Elementary Student Management Skills Exercise 2019 with the theme “Improving Responsibility, Confidence, and Solidarity to be a Critical Generation” With the aforementioned activities, the new students are expected to be able to find their identity, while still proud to be in the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Surabaya State University.Therefore, it is hoped that the participation of all parties is needed so that this activity can be carried out properly.

Hello chemistry majors ….

We would like to inform you about one of the work programs of the Department of Communication and Information of HMJ Kimia Unesa 2020 namely METANA.

HMJ Kimia Unesa held an activity to facilitate Chemistry Department students in meeting their needs. Chemistry students need academic and non-academic information. To meet the needs of these students, one of the activities held by HMJ Kimia is METANA (HMJ Kimia Unesa Annual Magazine).

Magazine is one of the mass communication media that tries to convey messages to the public in great detail because it has different characteristics from other print media. The characteristics of a magazine can be seen from the message content presented by a magazine.

METANA itself is an activity that runs in the field of journalism, photography and graphic design with the aim to provide information, inspiration, and distribution of work from chemistry students to chemistry students. The publication of METANA magazine was carried out during 1 management period in 2020 with 2 times of publishing, namely online publishing in the form of bulletins and 1 publishing offline in the form of physical magazines. The implementation of METANA activities begins with the formation of the Editorial Team with their respective assignments. After that, it was continued with interviews, news writing, editing to the process of selecting photos and illustrations, and selection of manuscripts for the works to be published in METANA magazine. After all the content has been collected, a layout and layout is made, until finally it is printed and distributed.

This activity was attended by 2 batches, namely class 2018 and 2019. Where from the 2 batches were divided into 10 classes, each class consisted of around 30 students and there was a tentor who was expert and ready to be invited to discuss about UAS material. There are 4 courses discussed with tentor, namely the subject of physical chemistry, analytical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and organic chemistry for students of the class of 2018. And physical chemistry,

The activity starts at 07.30 where before starting, participants are welcome to fill in attendance at google classroom and read modules that have been shared so that the discussion can run effectively. The discussion time with the tutor is 1 hour and then there is time for change of subject, followed by discussion of the next course and so on until the 3 courses that have been discussed.
