Through circular letter number B/3661/UN37.1.4/TU/2023, operational guidelines for research and community service activities in 2023 at FMIPA UNNES were announced. Based on the Guidelines for Research and Community Service issued by the Institute of Research and Community Service at Semarang State University, faculties are no longer allowed to develop their own guidelines, because according to the Regulation of the Minister of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia Number 203/PMK.05/2020, the implementation of research and community service must comply with guidelines established based on the decision of the Budget User (KPA). Therefore, the Research and Community Service using FMIPA’s DPA funds in 2023 will refer to the guidelines issued by the LPPM UNNES. Furthermore, in accordance with the Rector’s circular letter number B/1814/UN37/PG/2023 regarding the opening of research and community service funding for faculties and postgraduates in 2023, the following schemes are offered:
| Scheme | Funds (Millions) |
| 1. Independent Research | Sourced from Researchers |
| 2. Junior Lecturer Research | 7 to 10 |
| 3. Basic Research | 10 to 20 |
| 4. Community Service for Lecturers | 5 to 8 |
| 5. Research for Student Organizations | 3 to 6 |
Note: In addition to the funding range in the table above, research and community service activities refer to the Handbook issued by LPPM UNNES 2023.
