I Nyoman Suartha MSi and the Rector of Udayana University represented by the vice rector I, Prof. Dr. Ir. I Gede Rai Maya Temaja who also opened this field assessment activity.

After the opening agenda is complete, an assessment process is carried out which includes presentations by the head of the study program management unit (dean) and study program (program study coordinator) about the general portrait of the faculty as well as discussions with the assessor team. Then the assessment activities were continued with interviews with the Accreditation Task Force Team and Lecturers.

On the second day of the field assessment, the assessor team again conducted interviews with education staff, students, alumni, and stake holders. The technical implementation of this interview is done offline and online. Furthermore, the field assessment was continued with visits to campus facilities including the Veterinary Health Lab, Pathobiology Lab, Sesetan Biomedical Lab, Sesetan Veterinary Teaching Hospital and learning process facilities and infrastructure.

 


On the last day, the assessment results from the assessor team were presented, which was then followed by a discussion of the results of the assessment which included improving the minutes according to changes in the description, preparing the minutes of documents and coaching recommendations.
