n UMS, we
know an
a g e n c y
named ACEC (Alumni
Career and Employment
Center) as a media of work
channelization for UMS
g r a d u a t e s . A C E C
certainly has a broad
networking to either state
or private companies,
corporations, or other
work places. Many job
vacancies have been
informed by ACEC to
UMS graduates. The
moment of graduation is a
beneficial moment to both
companies and college
graduates. Companies
look for best graduates to
become their employees,
while college graduates
look for jobs from many
companies.
However, we
will not discuss about
ACEC; but about the
g r a d u a t e s f r o m
M u h a m m a d i y a h
University of Surakarta in
the work world. Based on
the interview which have
been conducted with
ACEC UMS, most of the
graduates have worked as
P N S , B U M N ,
enterpreneur, and private
company. Graduates from
Teacher Training and
Education Faculty leaning
work as PNS, whereas,

work of their alumni,
either for state or private
worker, also supporting
and building them to be an
enterpreneur. Generally,
the graduates should fill
the form about their
identity for the data of
ACEC. It is to facilitate
ACEC to contact the
alumni, especially for the
unemployees. Then ACEC
will inform job vacancies
via the contact person.
Based on the data from
ACEC, the graduates of
UMS is about 3,240
people. However, only 16
% of them who able to be
contacted, it is because
they not fill their form
perfectly, especially for
their e-mailadress.
But in this case,
it doesn't mean that
graduates only depend on
ACEC to get informations
for job vacancies. It is
s h o w n
from majority
of UMS alumni
who get informations of
job vacancies from their
relation and media, both
printed or electronic
media. This phenomenon
is general for the reason of
get a suitable job quickly.
According to many
e x p e r i e n c e s , m a n y
u n e m p l o y e d g e t
i n f o r m a t i o n o f j o b
vacancies from relations.
It will be more efficient
than only waiting job
informationsfromACEC.
As we have
known, there are a lot of
scholars who become
unemployees. Why can be
like that? There are two
opinions about it. The first
opinion says that college

applied by UMS has
already appropriated with
the world of work. It is
based on declaration from
ACEC, “The result of
crossing study shows that
the curriculum of UMS
has agreed with the world
of work. In addition, both
from the business side and
alumnus that have been

worked also say that the
curriculum of UMS has
appropriated” said Mr.
Totok as the chief of
ACEC UMS. However,
graduates are not always
work on their own field -
it's only has a few
percentage. For example
it doesn't mean that the
almuni of Faculty of
Architechture only work
based on their field.
According to ACEC,
many of UMS graduates

gives attention for them
who has longing for
being a businessman,
such as giving financial
capital and guidance to
start their exertion. UMS
always gives support for
their students to be a
businessman untill they
are able to stand
independently. The
guidances consist
of strategy of
e x e r t i o n ,
marketing

s ,
mon

ent, etc.
The chief
of UMS stated his hope
to UMS students to be a
businessman because
nowadays just a litle of
the UMS alumni who
have business. Most of
them prefer to work for
some state or private
institutions. It is because,
when they are work for
an institution they will
get exact salary.
“Intelligent
person isn't looking for a
job, but they create a job
field.” It is true that a
businessman haven't
exact salary, but don't
forget if the profit will be
more when we have own
business. Starting a
business isn't as easy as
w e
folded back our hand,
but if we always try,
pray, and never give up,
Allah will give a success
as we have wished
before. Success needs
sacrifices. Everyone has
same chance for success,
it differences by their
a b i l i t y t o s e e t h e
opportunity and how
they can take their
chance.

world job? Usually the
competition can be seen
from the amount of the
person who fill the empty
chair of civil servant. But,
accrording to the ACEC
data, research about
students' quality in the
world job still not visible
yet, because there are
many registrants who
compete as civil servant.
According to Totok as
ACEC manager said that
at this time we only can
compare between waiting
time to get job and the
salary the earn. “The most
visible is from that side”,
explainedhim.
ACEC has
conducted research

participated in
the survey,
there is only

the questioner asked
many questions about job
hunt. One of them is the
waiting time needed
before and after getting a
job? The answer from
participants are different,
depend on department
and what kind of job they
look for. The most
significant trend is one
from medical faculty
participants. they have
usually have a job before
they are graduated, and
their waiting time after
graduation until having
jobisonly about 3months.
The questionare
was also asking questions
about the job that they
look for and the subject
they have learned when
they studied in the college.
Appropriateness of the job
with the major of study
they learned was also
being asked in the
questionaire. From 517
participants who fill in
the questioners, 34%
answers that the relation
between job and the
subject that they have
learned in their collage are
very close, 18% of them
answer they are have close
relation, 14% of them
answer have no close
relation,16% of them
answer less closely, and
18% not answer. It shows
that actually the relation

very close. Hence,
ideally, the subject and
the job should be
a p p r o p r i a t e .
Unfortunately, there is
still a lot of occupants
who get a job which is
not in line with their
major study in the
college. Likewise, 38%
graduate of UMS work
in private companies,
16% work in BUMN
(civil servants), and 8%
asenterpreuners.
However, not
all
of graduates can work in
the accupation that
match their wish. The

of UMS get job, 30% have
not get work (they

Hi c a m p u s e r s , t o d a y
lifestyle will explain about
cycle and cycling for our
lifestyle rubric. Checkit out guys!
As we know that everyday some of
UMS students go to campus by bicycle. They
choose bicycle and cycling to go to campus. Such
a new lifestyle in UMS. Perhaps, it is not for a
whole students in UMS, but some of them have
began to cycling in order to reduce the pollution
and also to make parking spot more presentable
andcomfortable.
Dita Kurniati is a student of DEE UMS,
2012 has chosen bicycle as her transportation to
go to campus. It starts when she does not allowed
to bring motorcycle to campus, so her parents
give her bicycle. She really loves and enjoys
every scene when she was cycling. She said that
bicycle is more efficient and economical, because
we should not buy a fuel, we should not make a
drive license, and other. “Furthermore it's more
economical, cycling also make our body health, it
can reduce traffic accident, and also can reduce
the trafficjam”,admither.
It has been a year since she used
bicycle. She admits that the using bicycle to
campus is not popular yet. , it can be seen in the
parking spot, motorcycle is more dominant than
the cycle. Even the lecturer prefer to use the car or
motorcycle. It makes the parking spot and
campus looks full. On the other hand, sometimes
the bicyclist feels not appreciated as a road users.
Sometimes motorcycle users won't to yield, so it
makesthe cyclisthaveto be morecarefull.
Though bicycling have not been
popular hobbies or habits yet for UMS students,
but there is a slight increases students who use
bicycle. . She hopes that someday all of UMS
students can be
aware what the
goodness of of
using bicycle as a
m o d e o f
transportation. So,
they will use bicycle
and only use their
motorcycle when
they go to far. “ I
hope that there will
be an increasing bicyclist in UMS, so we can fix
the parking spot and make it more presentable
and comfortable. Moreover, we can be eco-
friendly.Let'sgocycling!”,closedDita.

Tired, tired, tired! One full day, I walk to hunt job, but the result is nothing. Why seek job for
fresh graduate with good value is so difficult? I have quality and good value, what else? My heart rages
and feels despair. Yeah, till now, I defeated by fresh graduate also. They have relation with one of
important person in the company where I applied for job. WHAT IS IT? My GPA is higher than their, I also
havemoreexperiencesthan others.
“ITISUNFAIR!”Ithrowall ofthings aroundme.
Suddenly, I look my room door open, and my father appears. He sees me. Without one word, he
hugs me. “Do not give up my champ, widen your heart to accept all disappointments. Listen to me, do not
ever shocked if many of you get job easily. Don't ever forget, everywhere, there is no rule without
exception.Itisgameinworkworld.”
My father stride out without give me further explanation. I confused. I try to dissolved my
father'sexplanation.
***
In the noon, the sun with its strength shines strongly. My resolve to sell this motorcycle is steady.
I need much money to open my own bussiness. I want to open “BOLA SINGKONG KEJU” bussiness. Ya, I
will open it with my own energy and my own financial capital. But, My motocycle not yet sold. I remember
myfather'smessage,DO NOTGIVEUP!It isthe wordswhichmakemespirit smolder.
Infar away, Ilooka dealer.Iwill try to sellit there.
“CanIsellmymotocyclehere?”
“I am sorry, your motocycle is too hard to sell again. I can
not buy it.”
***
I go home. My father welcomes me with sweet smile.
What'shappentoday?Myfather givesmean envelope.Iopenit.
Apparently, it is God's plan to not sell my motocycle that
was given by my father, because God knows that I love this
motocycleanddonot willing to sellit.
ThanksGod.Yourplanisalwaysunpredictable

  • 3. 3rd 3 Edition Campus Newsletter Main Menu I n UMS, we know an a g e n c y named ACEC (Alumni Career and Employment Center) as a media of work channelization for UMS g r a d u a t e s . A C E C certainly has a broad networking to either state or private companies, corporations, or other work places. Many job vacancies have been informed by ACEC to UMS graduates. The moment of graduation is a beneficial moment to both companies and college graduates. Companies look for best graduates to become their employees, while college graduates look for jobs from many companies. However, we will not discuss about ACEC; but about the g r a d u a t e s f r o m M u h a m m a d i y a h University of Surakarta in the work world. Based on the interview which have been conducted with ACEC UMS, most of the graduates have worked as P N S , B U M N , enterpreneur, and private company. Graduates from Teacher Training and Education Faculty leaning work as PNS, whereas, f r o m F a c u l t y o f Engineering graduates w o r k i n p r i v a t e institution. A C E C U M S certainly has an important role in channelization Opportunities for UMS Graduates Job Reported: Rico/ LPM Campus
  • 4. Main Menu work of their alumni, either for state or private worker, also supporting and building them to be an enterpreneur. Generally, the graduates should fill the form about their identity for the data of ACEC. It is to facilitate ACEC to contact the alumni, especially for the unemployees. Then ACEC will inform job vacancies via the contact person. Based on the data from ACEC, the graduates of UMS is about 3,240 people. However, only 16 % of them who able to be contacted, it is because they not fill their form perfectly, especially for their e-mailadress. But in this case, it doesn't mean that graduates only depend on ACEC to get informations for job vacancies. It is s h o w n from majority of UMS alumni who get informations of job vacancies from their relation and media, both printed or electronic media. This phenomenon is general for the reason of get a suitable job quickly. According to many e x p e r i e n c e s , m a n y u n e m p l o y e d g e t i n f o r m a t i o n o f j o b vacancies from relations. It will be more efficient than only waiting job informationsfromACEC. As we have known, there are a lot of scholars who become unemployees. Why can be like that? There are two opinions about it. The first opinion says that college o n l y d e v e l o p t h e knowledge – from not u n d e r s t a n d t o b e und erstan d , t h e s e c o n d opinion says that college's graduates are not ready for work, but foraccustomed. T h e c u r r i c u l u m w h i c h applied by UMS has already appropriated with the world of work. It is based on declaration from ACEC, “The result of crossing study shows that the curriculum of UMS has agreed with the world of work. In addition, both from the business side and alumnus that have been 4 rd 3 Edition Campus Newsletter
  • 5. 5rd 3 Edition Campus Newsletter internet worked also say that the curriculum of UMS has appropriated” said Mr. Totok as the chief of ACEC UMS. However, graduates are not always work on their own field - it's only has a few percentage. For example it doesn't mean that the almuni of Faculty of Architechture only work based on their field. According to ACEC, many of UMS graduates w o r k i n a n i m a l husbandry and oil palm plantation. U M S a l s o gives attention for them who has longing for being a businessman, such as giving financial capital and guidance to start their exertion. UMS always gives support for their students to be a businessman untill they are able to stand independently. The guidances consist of strategy of e x e r t i o n , marketing analysi s , mon e y managem ent, etc. The chief of UMS stated his hope to UMS students to be a businessman because nowadays just a litle of the UMS alumni who have business. Most of them prefer to work for some state or private institutions. It is because, when they are work for an institution they will get exact salary. “Intelligent person isn't looking for a job, but they create a job field.” It is true that a businessman haven't exact salary, but don't forget if the profit will be more when we have own business. Starting a business isn't as easy as w e folded back our hand, but if we always try, pray, and never give up, Allah will give a success as we have wished before. Success needs sacrifices. Everyone has same chance for success, it differences by their a b i l i t y t o s e e t h e opportunity and how they can take their chance. Main Menu
  • 6. 6 rd 3 Edition Campus Newsletter Hot Topic Job is one of g o a l s f o r e v e r y students after graduation. Likewise, students of U n i v e r s i t y o f M u h a m m a d i y a h S u r a k a r t a ( U M S ) , however, the quality of U M S ' g r a d u a t e s t o compete in the world of workisbeing questioned? Quality is very important requirement to enter the world of work. Meanwhile, the quality of UMS students are not visible yet in job hunt outside. If we compare with other universities, of course UMS not able yet to equalwith them. U M S h a s a n institution named ACEC (Alumni Career and Employment Center). A C E C i s g i v i n g i n f o r m a t i o n t o t h e students who are looking for a job. ACEC already has relation with several companies, like Danamon Bank, BRI, BTPN, Palma and many more. These companies conduct recruitment routinly every year. Well, how t h e r e a l c o m p e t i t i o n U M S graduates i n t h e r e a l Reported: Rannisa/ LPM Campus
  • 7. 7rd 3 Edition Campus Newsletter Hot Topic world job? Usually the competition can be seen from the amount of the person who fill the empty chair of civil servant. But, accrording to the ACEC data, research about students' quality in the world job still not visible yet, because there are many registrants who compete as civil servant. According to Totok as ACEC manager said that at this time we only can compare between waiting time to get job and the salary the earn. “The most visible is from that side”, explainedhim. ACEC has conducted research t h r ou g h on l i n e questioner in 2010. Out of 3247 UMS graduates who participated in the survey, there is only about 16% or 5 1 7 s t u d e n t s who fill t h e questi oner . the questioner asked many questions about job hunt. One of them is the waiting time needed before and after getting a job? The answer from participants are different, depend on department and what kind of job they look for. The most significant trend is one from medical faculty participants. they have usually have a job before they are graduated, and their waiting time after graduation until having jobisonly about 3months. The questionare was also asking questions about the job that they look for and the subject they have learned when they studied in the college. Appropriateness of the job with the major of study they learned was also being asked in the questionaire. From 517 participants who fill in the questioners, 34% answers that the relation between job and the subject that they have learned in their collage are very close, 18% of them answer they are have close relation, 14% of them answer have no close relation,16% of them answer less closely, and 18% not answer. It shows that actually the relation between job and the subject that they have learned in the college are
  • 8. 8 rd 3 Edition Campus Newsletter Hot Topic internet very close. Hence, ideally, the subject and the job should be a p p r o p r i a t e . Unfortunately, there is still a lot of occupants who get a job which is not in line with their major study in the college. Likewise, 38% graduate of UMS work in private companies, 16% work in BUMN (civil servants), and 8% asenterpreuners. However, not all of graduates can work in the accupation that match their wish. The data shows there are 60% from 517 students of UMS get job, 30% have not get work (they continue their study, marry, or waiting for a j o b ) , a n d 1 0 % i s unemployed. ACEC also conducts preventive action to decrease unemployment like softskills training, job training aboard, and practice in UKM, yet this has not significantly d e c r e a s e t h e unemployment. “We will conduct one of our preventive actions on th Tuesday, 19 , 2013 we will hold seminar to prepare training job aboard, precisely in Japan”, explained Totok asmanager ofACEC.
