What is economics?
Economics is a social science that study how
people choose to use resources and how the
economy works. Economics includes the study of
labor, land, and investments, of money, income,
and production, and of taxes and government
expenditures. Therefore the aim of economics is
to gain better understanding about incentives
and how it can be used to improve welfare.

The Department of Economics is part of the
Faculty of Economics and Business, Universitas
Gadjah Mada (UGM), along with the Department
of Accounting and Department of Management.
UGM (http://ugm.ac.id/) is an Indonesian public
ivy league research university located in

The Faculty of Economics and Business
(http://feb.ugm.ac.id/) was founded on
September 19, 1955, where it was still part of the
Faculty of Law, Economics, Social and Politics. In
1958, the Faculty of Economics moved to the
area of Bulaksumur, occupying a part of Gadjah
Mada University Administration Center Building.
Then in January 1989, it moved to a new building
at Humaniora Street, Bulaksumur, and operates
there to this today. Seeking to meet its
international goals, the Faculty changed its name
to the Faculty of Economics and Business in
2007.
The Faculty of Economics and Business earns one
of the world prestigious accreditation The
Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of
Business (AACSB) after almost 7 years of
institutional development process. The Faculty of
Economics and Business becomes the first AACSB
earner in Indonesia.
The origin of the Department of Economics can
be traced since 1952 when it was still a division
under the Faculty of Law, Economics, Social and
Politics. In 1983 the Department of Economics
and Development Studies was established and
then changed to the Department of Economics in
2005.
The Department of Economics obtained an “A”
accreditation from the Board of National
Accreditation (BAN-PT).
Research collaboration
The Department of Economics provides wide
opportunity for research collaboration between
the lecturer and the students. Third and fourth
year undergraduate students may apply to
become research assistant at Research and
Training in Economics and Business (P2EB),
Macroeconomic Dashboard, Center for
Economics and Public Policy (PSEKP), or to
individual lecturers. Macroeconomic Dashboard
produced quarterly report on the Indonesian
economy where research assistants, which
include undergraduate students, are the
backbone of its production.
Student organization
HIMIESPA (http://himiespa.feb.ugm.ac.id) is the
student association for undergraduate students
at the Department of Economics. The association
held several annual activities such as Economics
Discussion and Study Forum (FSDE), CorruptionFree Economy (EBK), and various workshops.
Students of the Department of Economics may
also join the Students Executive Board (BEM),
Students Mountaineering Club, religious
organizations, and various other students body.
When I first came into the university, I actually
had low expectations about my study.
However, eventually I found the economics
professors here to be the best in the country
that I forgot about the faculty's shortcomings.
Now I'm itching to get the most out of my
study and learn from the best
Andreas Rahadyanto (B.Econ. IUP Class 2013)

Program Structure
Assessment Methods
Language
Teachings
Subjects in the regular undergraduate program in
economics are delivered using Bahasa Indonesia.
However, most of the lecturers prefer to use
English-language textbooks and presentations.
Therefore, make sure that you are comfortable in
using English in daily life.
The undergraduate program in economics take
staff quality seriously. There are 46 lecturers in
the Department of Economics, where 56% of
them hold Ph.D. degree, while many of the
master’s degree holders are currently taking
Ph.D. study. Most of the lecturers are graduates
from respected foreign universities, mostly from
the United States and Australia, and only 1 out of
5 (21.74%) graduated from within Indonesia.
International undergraduate program in
economics, however, uses English in delivering
the courses, in discussions with lecturers, and in
formal correspondence with faculty staffs.
SINTESIS: Efficient online system
The Faculty uses an online system called
SINTESIS. The system provides comprehensive
information for students, lecturers, and
administrative staffs of the Faculty. Information
about grades, syllabus, student profile, teaching
schedules, and other academic information can
be accessed via SINTESIS. Students, therefore,
are expected to check SINTESIS regularly to avoid
missing updates.
Credits system
The Department of Economics uses credit points
system (SKS), where for each SKS students are
expected to have 50 minutes of class hours per
week. A typical economics subject has 3 SKS,
which means that a student will have 2.5 hours
of class meeting within a week for 1 subject. For
the whole study, an economics student must
complete 144 SKS (111 SKS compulsory subjects
and 33 electives). The limit for SKS to be taken is
based on the GPA achievement.
11
In the last few years, the Department of
Economics introduced various “workshop”
classes where students are given practical/
applied economics. Therefore, students should
be able to gain more than theoretical economics.
Throughout the semester, 1 subject is delivered
in 14 meetings. The main assessment method is
the mid-term and final exam. However, lecturers
are encouraged to give assignments and student
presentation. Therefore, the final grade is a
weighted average of all grade components.
Following the reputation of the Department of
Economics, lecturers are expecting exceptional
performance of the students in the class.
Students should realize this expectation when
entering the class and study hard.
Exit assessment on a departing student is done
by writing and defending an undergraduate
thesis, and passing a comprehensive exam (Basic
Microeconomics, Basic Macroeconomics and
Basic Development Economics courses).
3 examiners, comprising 1 supervisor and 2 other
lecturers, conduct thesis defense and the
comprehensive exam. Students failing the
defense/exam may reapply for it again. Those
failing more than 3 times will be assigned to a
faculty member for counseling.
Students who have completed the
undergraduate economics program will be
awarded citations based on their cumulative GPA
and length of study:
? High distinction (cum laude): cumulative GPA
≥ 3.51 and completing their studies in the
maximum of 8 semesters
? Very satisfactory (Distinction): 2.76 ≤
cumulative GPA ≤ 3.50
? Satisfactory: 2.00 ≤ cumulative GPA ≤ 2.75
Library
There are two libraries (http://lib.feb.ugm.ac.id)
at the Faculty of Economics and Business, in
addition to the Department’s own library and
university’s libraries. Faculty libraries are
managed by 10 professional staffs and has links
to journal databases such as EBSCO, ProQuest,
ScienceDirect, JSTOR, IEEE Computer Society,
OPAC FEB Library, SpringerLink, ACS Publications,
and an online catalog (EBDL – Economics and
Business Digital Library). In total there are 11739
collections of textbooks and more than 7000
theses (undergraduate and graduate).
Other facilities
The Faculty provides language laboratory,
computer laboratory, student rooms, and every
classroom are equipped with LCD projector.

Student and Alumni Profiles
Studying here has enlighten me to keep learning
and to travel the world. The learning process has
open doors to study, live, and work abroad. The
program gave me chance to be an exchange
student at Fukuoka Women’s University and at
Science Po University in Paris. I also join the
international internship at Siam Cement Group in
Bangkok, Thailand.
Personally, studying here is a life changing
experience that inspire me to see the boundless
world.
Caroline H. Manik (B.Econ. Class 2010)
Being a student at the Department of Economics
means being a part of the foremost in Indonesia.
Here, whatever your background is, you will be
upgraded both in academic and non-academic
way. During your spell, not only your analytical
skills, but also your social skills will be multiplied
exponentially.
The question is not whether you will be accepted
to be a part of us or not. The real question is: are
you ready to be upgraded?
Timotius H. Partohap (B.Econ. Alumni 2013),
M.Sc. in Economics candidate at University of St.
Andrews
A year studying abroad was a marvelous
experience for me, and definitely one of the
stories I would tell my children when I am old.
The diverse culture, and of course people I met
overseas were mind-boggling, even when you
came from the already culture-rich nation like
Indonesia. There, you will also feel the difference
between developing and developed countries,
especially in a country like Netherlands, and the
most modern city in Europe at Rotterdam. That
feeling will either fuel you to want stay there, or
to go back helping your country to grow. I chose
the later. Yet, certainly I would want another year
of studying abroad during Master or PhD
Program, and thanks to this experience, I can be
more prepared hopefully. Cheers!
UGM’s Department of Economics is a
manifestation of academic institution for the
betterment of Indonesia. The lecturers are
internationally qualified and the facilities are
more than adequate.
The combination of all above aspects, in addition
to the open communication between lecturers
and students, has enable me to taste experience
working at the Financial Service Authority, Bank
Indonesia Supervisory Board, and at the State
Palace (Presidential Office).

Results from alumni tracer study show that most
of the respondent (30%) needs 1-3 months to
obtain the first job and only 10% who needs to
wait for more than a year to get his/her first job.
The tracer study also managed to obtain
information on the type of the workplace. It was
found that the majority of the alumni from the
Department of Economics worked for the
government (49%) followed by domestic private
sector (26%).
Some employers such as Bank Indonesia even
have talent scouting program aiming top
graduates of the undergraduate program.
Graduates of the program opt for a wide variety
of careers, including private banking, the
government, Bank Indonesia, Financial Service
Authority, private companies, international NGO
(ADB, World Bank, SMERU), and many more.
The Faculty and the Department of Economics
cooperates with companies to provide
internships and work experience. Since 2008,
career counseling is also offered through SSC
(Student Service Corner). Personal development
service and academic counseling service
comprises of workshops on academic writing
skills, presentation skills, exam preparation, and
thesis defense.
Alumni from FEB are automatically joins in
KAFEGAMA (which is part of the greater UGM
alumni organization, KAGAMA) where the
organization held events such as alumni lecture
series, internship opportunities, scholarships,
and research funding.
Non-academic activities by KAFEGAMA includes
provision of endowment fund, construction of
new building, support for research facilities, and
expansion in the industrial network through the
Faculty Advisory Board.
It has been an amazing opportunity to study economics at UGM. The
lecturers, facilities, and student activities are all supportive to my
development. I have received several awards such as 1st prize on Financial
Inclusion Paper Competition and 3rd prize on UNESCO’s Worldwide Essay
Contest. All thanks to my economics education!

Living in Yogyakarta
Welcome to Jogja!
Named as one of the most livable cities in
Indonesia in 2014, Yogyakarta continued to
mesmerize domestic and foreign visitors. The city
is known as the City of Culture due to the
preserved cultural heritage embodied not only in
various historical buildings, but also in the
people. No wonder that Yogyakarta is one of the
favorite tourist destination after Bali.
You will also need some money to follow
interests beyond your academic studies. If you
have no plans to go out for cinema or cultural
event performances, Jogja itself has many
“hidden” interesting cultures and social aspects
to be observed
Find more about Yogyakarta here:

? http://oia.ugm.ac.id/v3.0/single/en/39/
Numerous education institutions in the city also
makes the city as the icon of education in
Indonesia with Universitas Gadjah Mada lies at
the center of it. As in many cities where
education is at its heart, learning atmosphere is
optimal for study.
Living Cost
A single student living in Jogja would need
approximately USD172/month to meet basic
living expenses such as boarding; (USD27, single
room), food (USD95), daily fares, transportation
(USD50), medical cover, and other necessities. It
should be stressed, however, that these figures
are all approximate and how much you actually
spend will depend a lot on your personal lifestyle. Some people may be able to live
moderately; others might find it hard to maintain
their usual standard of living.

Note: all of above admission test are for regular undergraduate program in economics except for the IUP
admission test that is aimed to select international undergraduate students in economics
There are 2 main pathways for students to sit the
admissions tests: 1) the joint admission test
where UGM and other universities design and
manage the placement test, and; 2) the
independent admission test by UGM.
The joint and competitive admissions tests are
based on written exams (for IUP admission there
is also interview and group discussion session).
The number of new students via this system is
60% of all new regular students in the
Department of Economics.
While for the talent scouting admission test, the
Directorate of Higher Education invites high
school students to register for national selection
based on the 3rd and 4th semester grade. Each
high school student is entitled to register for 2
study programs at 2 public universities. This
entry system only provides 40% of all new
students in the Department of Economics,
Universitas Gadjah Mada.

Is studying economics hard?
Serious study of any science, including
economics, is hard. What makes economics looks
slightly harder than other social sciences is
because of the higher degree of mathematics
involved.
I’m majoring in Science (IPA) in my
highschool. Why should I enrol in
economics?
Economics required a relatively higher degree of
mathematics compared to other social sciences.
Your mathematical skills obtained in highschool
will be useful when studying economics. It is also
more interesting than pure science because
economics involves humans!
I’m majoring in Social Science (IPS) in my
highschool. Why should I enrol in
economics?
Despite heavy in mathematics, economics is still
a branch in social science because it involves
human, society, and organization (such as the
government) in its analysis. Your social science
skills that you get in highschool will be
elaborated more in university-level economics!
How about academic performance?
In 2013 80.50% of our graduating students
obtained GPA > 3.00 (above B).
What makes economics different with
accounting or management?
Economics studied about the economy as a
whole, such as the economy of Indonesia, rather
than a specific business matter as in accounting
or management. In economics we learn and try
to find ways to eradicate poverty and inequality,
something that almost never existed when you
studied accounting or management. In
economics we also learn quantitative methods
that are often used in the context of business
and accounting.
How competitive is it to enrol the
program?
It is moderately competitive. In 2013 the
percentage of accepted students to the number
of applicants is 2.94%.
Can I have a topic outside 5 field of
specialization for my undergraduate
thesis?
Of course you can. The 5 field of specialization is
just a guide of what you can do for your research.
How many students per class?
The maximum capacity is 60 students per class,
but the average is just around 30 students per
class.
Is there any health service in UGM?
How about Internet access?
The Internet is widely available throughout the
Faculty and can be accessed via 40 Wi-Fi access
points.
Yes, we have GMC (Gadjah Mada Medical Center)
that provides health and non-health counseling
services.
