The theme \u201cKu Bahagia\u201d<\/strong>, which can be understood in English as \u201cI\u2019m Happy\u201d<\/strong>, carries a message that FMIPA is not merely a place to learn, teach, conduct research, and work, but also a space to grow, create, compete, collaborate, and find happiness together<\/strong>. The phrase draws on the familiar Indonesian pop-culture expression \u201cKu Bahagia,\u201d popularized by Indonesian singer-songwriter Melly Goeslaw<\/strong>, giving the theme a cheerful and relatable cultural touch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

September MIPA was not merely a festive celebration, but also provided a platform to showcase the various potentials and achievements of FMIPA. In addition to a student entrepreneurship exhibition, the event featured research and community engagement innovation exhibitions from each academic cluster within FMIPA<\/strong>. The exhibitions presented a range of research outputs, innovations, and community engagement initiatives developed by the academic community as part of FMIPA\u2019s contribution to addressing challenges in society and the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is a moment of happiness for all of us because September MIPA can be held in our new lecture building,\u201d said Prof. Edy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Participants presented a variety of creative dishes, including moringa pudding, moringa nasi uduk, moringa wontons served with moringa-based sauce, moringa pancakes<\/strong>, and other innovative creations.

The atmosphere became even more vibrant with a special performance by students from Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), Malaysia<\/strong>. Their participation enriched the event while reflecting the spirit of international collaboration and cross-border academic interaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
