History

Mathematics Education Study Program is under the auspices of Faculty of Teacher Training and Education UIR. This study program began carrying out educational activities by accepting new students in 1984 (based on Decree of the Minister of P and K RI No. 085/0/1984 dated March 5, 1984 with the status of “Registered”. After carrying out educational activities for 6 years precisely in 1990, based on the proposal from FKIP UIR that the status of Mathematics Education Study Program of Faculty of Teacher Training and Education UIR is worthy of being raised from “Registered” to “Recognized” (based on the Decree of the Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia Number 0379/0/1990). At the beginning of its establishment, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education UIR Mathematics Education Study Program organized three levels of education namely: Bachelor Degree (S1), Diploma Three (D3), and Diploma Two (D2). In 1991, the government closed all D3 and D2 education levels under Institute of Teacher Training and Education & Faculty of Teacher Training and Education throughout Indonesia including D3 and D2 in the Mathematics Education Study Program of Faculty of Teacher Training and Education-UIR. So since then our study program no longer organizes education at both levels of education. In 1995 the government made changes in the stratification of educational programs in Indonesia, namely from the Status of Operational Permits, Registered, Recognized and Equalized to registered / Non-accredited Operational Permits and accredited. With this change, in 1998 the Mathematics Education Study Program of Faculty of Teacher Training and Education UIR proposed a change in status from recognized to accredited. Based on the proposal, the National Accreditation Board confirmed that the Mathematics Education Study Program was deemed worthy of being granted “Accredited” Status with a grade of C (Decree of the National Accreditation Board for Higher Education of the Ministry of National Education of the Republic of Indonesia with Number: 02600/BAN-PT/Ak-IV/UIFcd/XII/1998). Since then, the Mathematics Education Study Program of Faculty of Teacher Training and Education UIR no longer conducts the State Installment Examination. In 2005, the Mathematics Education Study Program of Faculty of Teacher Training and Education UIR proposed an increase in accreditation status and received a B grade (based on the Decree of BAN PT of the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Indonesia Number: 012/BAN-PT/Ak-IX/S1/VII/2005). In 2010, the accreditation status of the Mathematics Education Study Program of Faculty of Teacher Training and Education UIR was submitted again to BAN PT and received a C grade (based on BAN PT Decree Number: 030/BAN-PT/Ak-XIII/S1/XII/2010). In 2015, the accreditation status of the Mathematics Education Study Program of Faculty of Teacher Training and Education UIR was submitted again to BAN PT and received a B grade. Finally, in early 2021, the accreditation was submitted to BAN PT and still received a Good score.

Graduate Profile

Establishing Graduate Profiles involves defining the roles that graduates can assume within a specific field of expertise or occupation 1-3 years after completing the program. These profiles are established based on a study of labor market needs as identified by the government, industry, and business sectors, as well as the requirements for advancing knowledge and technology. Additionally, the establishment of graduate profiles was discussed during the Indonesian Mathematical Education Association (I-MES) seminar in December 2020. Based on that meeting, several graduate profiles for Mathematics Education were agreed upon. Consequently, the Mathematics Education program has defined its graduate profiles, as outlined in Table 1 below.
