UGM’s math students have once again achieved remarkable success at the national level. UGM’s math students brought home five medals at the Doctor Data 2023 event organized by the Statistics Student Association of Diponegoro University. UGM’s pride delegation managed to secure 2 gold medals and 3 bronze medals.
In the National Statistics Olympiad category, the team of Gian Luky Saputra and Daud Muhammad Azhari clinched the gold medals, while the team of Cindy Ermawati and Saprina Saputri secured the bronze medals. In the National Statistics Essay category, Mohammad Firdaus and Fitriana Arlyn Rahayu team earned gold medals, and the team of Bryan Florentino Leo and Immanuella Rere Kusuma Wardhani received bronze medals. Additionally, in the National Statistics Infographics category, Luthfi Syafi Abdillah received a bronze medal.
Arlyn expressed, “During the competition preparations, especially for creating essays, it took quite a long time, and the process was quite lengthy. The topic selection, discussions with various parties, and consultations, both with our professors and alumni from the Department of Mathematics, played a significant role.”
“Let’s elevate the status of data to be more than just numbers. Let’s turn data into a story that leaves a lasting impact, enlightens our perspectives, and leads to the truth,” Arlyn concluded.
Hopefully, this success will inspire students from the Department of Mathematics, FMIPA UGM, to be more enthusiastic about participating in competitions and enhancing their skills and abilities.
