One of the achievements to be proud of is that 1 lecturer from the Faculty of Geography (Choirul Amin, S. Si., MM together with Drs. M. Musiyam, MTP) won a textbook grant. This information was obtained from the SIMLITABMAS RISTEKDIKTI website with letter number: 2940/E5.3/PB/X/2017 Date: 17 October 2017
The title of the textbook is “Introduction to Regional Planning: A Geographical Perspective”. The background for the preparation of the title of this book is that geography students as prospective regional experts need to be equipped with knowledge and understanding of regional planning. However, the literature on regional planning is still sparse and it can even be said that no one has used a geographic perspective. Therefore, the presence of this book has an important value to support student learning in the Regional Planning course at the Geography Faculty of UMS.
