The assessment was held over two days, from September 2 to 3, 2026, as an important part of the accreditation process and the continuous quality improvement of the Development Economics Study Program.
For the field assessment, LAMEMBA appointed two expert assessors:
Prof. Dr. Nasikh, S.E., M.P., M.Pd. – Universitas Negeri Malang

The assessment began with an opening session attended by the leadership of the Study Program Management Unit (UPPS), internal quality assurance teams, and relevant representatives of FEB UNTAN. The agenda continued with the verification of supporting documents and clarification sessions concerning the Self-Evaluation Report (DED) and Quantitative Data (DKPS) submitted by the Study Program as part of the accreditation process.
The field assessment was conducted comprehensively and participatively through a series of discussions and confirmation sessions involving various key stakeholders. The assessors conducted separate interviews and discussions with UPPS leadership, faculty members, students, alumni, and graduate users/employers. The involvement of these stakeholders provided important insights into the Study Program’s performance, governance, learning processes, graduate outcomes, and contributions to the needs of society and the world of work.
On the second day, the assessment continued with an inspection of academic facilities and infrastructure across the FEB UNTAN campus. The assessment team observed facilities supporting academic activities, learning environments, faculty offices, and other supporting infrastructure that contribute to the implementation of the Three Pillars of Higher Education (Tridharma Perguruan Tinggi) and the delivery of educational activities within the Development Economics Study Program.
The two-day field assessment concluded with a feedback session from the assessment team, the signing of the Field Assessment Minutes of Meeting, and an official closing ceremony attended by the leadership of the UPPS and Universitas Tanjungpura.
