Muhammadiyah University of Malang (UMM) held its 112th graduation ceremony this February. Among the graduates, there emerged a student with a plethora of achievements. She is Ike Trisdayanti, a graduate of the Aquaculture Program Study, who successfully earned the title of outstanding graduate. It is undeniable that during her studies, Ike achieved various awards and championships. One of her notable achievements was winning a gold medal in the poster category and a bronze medal in the presentation category at the National Student Scientific Week (Pimnas) in 2023.
"At Pimnas 2023, two of my titles qualified for Pimnas and won medals. That victory also allowed me to graduate without a thesis and finally be able to graduate successfully," explained the Aquaculture major graduate.
Both of her research projects discussed the same aspect, which is the prevention of shrimp diseases with bacteriophages. This includes preventing AHPND (Acute Hepatopancreatic Necrosis Disease), which attacks shrimps, causing digestive organs such as the midgut, hepatopancreas, and stomach to become pale and empty.

According to Ike, studying at UMM opened many doors for her. She could easily channel her potential, such as through involvement in various student activity units (UKM), department associations, and others.

This graduate, with a GPA of 3.98, shared that her academic journey was not easy. She had to pursue and sacrifice many things during that time. She had to juggle research, laboratory assistance, and organizational activities. She emphasized that setting priorities was crucial.

Thank you, UMM, for helping me achieve my dreams and aspirations," she added, concluding. (Tri/Wil/Fajr)
