A. Background

In regard to the high interest in the IISMA program throughout these past two years,
International Office Universitas Padjadjaran would provide the tools needed to help increase the
chances for students to be accepted into IISMA. This year won’t be an exception. From January
to February there will be a series of events that Facilitate the students to get more information
about IISMA, and ultimately guide them throughout the process.

Faculties’ International Unit will be going to each and every faculty in Unpad to give general

interest to participate in IISMA 2023 with the awardees who’d have succeeded in all the process
of IISMA 2022. The mentoring will be held in groups of 10 (tentative to the number of
applicants) and every group will have one mentor (awardee IISMA 2022). Minimal 3
