The Open Campus celebration and the 18th Anniversary celebration of Universitas Indo Global Mandiri (IGM) in 2026 officially began today, Wednesday (June 17).
The event, which runs through Saturday (June 20), is designed to serve as a hub for creativity and a platform to showcase the university’s academic excellence to the general public.
The symbolic opening was conducted by Universitas IGM Vice Rector III, Dr. Hj Tien Yustini, who commended the hard work of the entire organizing committee in ensuring the success of this annual event. “We hope this momentum will serve as an important stepping stone to strengthen the relationship between the university, prospective students, and the community,” she said.
Over the next four days, the campus will be bustling with a variety of educational activities, ranging from workshops and sharing sessions to academic seminars. Not only that, but intense competitions will also be held to identify young talents through creative dance contests, e-sports tournaments, marching drill competitions, trivia contests, debates, and a short film festival.
In addition to offering competitions and educational programs, the organizing committee is also treating visitors to a food court area set up around the event venue. Dozens of food and beverage stalls have been set up with prices designed to be very affordable for students and the general public attending the event. The food court is expected to liven up the festive atmosphere while supporting local businesses in the campus community.
The Event Chair, Ahmad Widad Muntazhor, S.H., M.H., emphasized that this event serves as a representative platform for students to channel their non-academic potential. “This event is a real-world stage where classroom theory blends with boundless creativity in the field,” he stated.
He added that this blend of education, competition, and culinary entertainment was deliberately designed to provide a memorable experience for every visitor. “We want to ensure that anyone who comes here gains new insights while enjoying affordable entertainment,” he concluded. (andhiko ta)
