Prof. Rendy explained that as students, we must have the basic capital as students of knowledge. Students must have reason and intelligence and have skills. As students, we must have a strong desire and not get bored quickly, besides being able to spend time and concentrate on studying.
“In addition to having the basic capital, students must also develop themselves. There are three keys to self-development, namely being able to go through a long process, not stopping to study, and being able to communicate well with lecturers, “explained Prof. Randy.
In studying, communication is important, students must be able to communicate well with all lecturers, especially their supervisors. Students must also be ready to commit to further study.
Prof. Rendy said that in studying there are ethics that must be carried out by students. Students should not show arrogance towards the knowledge gained, can imitate and be an example of good behavior and always respect others.
Prof. Rendy hopes that by continuing his studies to a further level, the knowledge gained can be useful for others. Good luck to Telkom University postgraduate students 2021/2022.
