BAMUIS BNI and FTUI Collaboration: Providing Access to Premier Higher Education Scholarships

On Thursday (12/12), the Faculty of Engineering, Universitas Indonesia (FTUI), established a collaboration with the Islamic Community Fund Agency (BAMUIS) of Bank Negara Indonesia (BNI) by signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for the Premier Higher Education Scholarship for Career-Ready Graduates program. The event was held at the Smart Meeting Room, FTUI Dean’s Office.

FTUI became the first public university to partner with BAMUIS BNI in this scholarship program. Previously, BAMUIS BNI focused solely on providing scholarships to Islamic preachers at state Islamic universities in Indonesia. This year, BAMUIS BNI expanded its scholarship reach to public universities, aiming to support the development of exceptional human resources ready to contribute across professional sectors.

The Premier Higher Education Scholarship for Career-Ready Graduates by BAMUIS BNI aims to assist FTUI students in need while encouraging academic excellence. The program provides a total scholarship fund of IDR 22,500,000 per semester to five FTUI students until they graduate as engineering undergraduates. The Batch 1 scholarship recipients are:

  • Dzalfa Rajaa Muhammad (Mechanical Engineering 2021)
  • Ahmad Suwandi M (Environmental Engineering 2023)
  • Ilham Ramadhan (Mechanical Engineering 2022)
  • Arya Arfab Akbar Maulana (Civil Engineering 2023)
  • Maharaka Fadhilah (Computer Engineering 2023)

In his remarks, Prof. Dr. Ir. Yanuar, M.Eng., M.Sc., Vice Dean for Education, Research, and Student Affairs, expressed his hopes:
“May the strong collaboration between BAMUIS BNI and the Faculty of Engineering Universitas Indonesia continue and inspire other stakeholders to collaborate to advance education and student welfare. We believe that with everyone’s support, this program will have a profoundly positive impact on the nation’s future generations.”

Similarly, Prof. Ir. Mahmud Sudibandriyo, MSc., Ph.D., Acting Dean of FTUI, appreciated BAMUIS BNI’s initiative to broaden its scholarship outreach.
“We deeply appreciate BAMUIS BNI’s decision to partner with FTUI as the first public university collaborator. This program demonstrates a strong commitment to preparing high-quality, competitive young talent ready to enter the professional world. We hope this collaboration continues sustainably and helps even more students through this program.”

Drs. H. Sudirman, MBA, Executive Director of BAMUIS BNI, highlighted the alignment of the partnership with Indonesia’s vision for 2045:
“This collaboration aligns with our shared vision to support the achievement of Indonesia Emas 2045. We need exceptional, competitive human resources ready to thrive globally on this journey toward our national goals. We hope the synergy between BAMUIS BNI and FTUI fosters the development of top talents who excel academically, maintain integrity, and are driven to build the nation.”

The Premier Higher Education Scholarship for Career-Ready Graduates by BAMUIS BNI is expected to support students in need at Universitas Indonesia, particularly in the Faculty of Engineering, in earning their undergraduate degrees. The program aims to prepare students for high-performing, competitive careers.
