Testimoni Alumni:

 

?First, we were in Menara Asia, there was not canteen and we ate in ?warteg? with building workers. However, we were happy because at that time, there were only 12 students. Thus, we become more solid and closed, including with the lectures.?

?Our batch were also very solid. I and my friend, Beta, finished the college within 7 years. Both of us was almost drop-out from UPH, but eventually by the support from lectures such as Mrs. Mina and Mr. Hendra, we both can finish our thesis. The 7 years of college make me to become a very professional because I still remember every detail of the lessons and apply it to the field. So, for the fresh-graduate alumni and my juniors, keep your spirit on to achieve success.?

?Our batch were very solid back then. Our friendship was very closed and support each other. I felt the period of ?almost? drop out until eventually I can graduate from UPH. I thank God for my college year in UPH because I can get a very precious experience and support from lectures.?

?My first motivation was to get the highest GPA because I love civil engineering. Firstly, I didn?t have any idea of civil engineering, the only thing I know was the mathematic in it and I love math. I also see my uncle that already become a successful person in civil engineering field. Thus, it makes me interest in this major. The most important thing is don?t give up, if you fail, keep trying.?
