The award was given to Palangka Raya University, during the Evaluation of the Implementation of the Second Quarter Program of Activities and Budgets within the Directorate of Higher Education Research and Technology, Ministry of Education and Culture, at the J.W Marriot Hotel on July 21, 2023. Palangka Raya University has achieved excellence in KPI 3: Lecturers Engaging in Off-Campus Activities and KPI 7: Collaborative and Participatory Classes. The awarding of IKU PTN achievements is measured by eight Key Performance Indicators determined through the Decree of the Minister of Education and Culture Number 3 / M / 2021 concerning IKU PTN and LLDikti. Unlike the previous year, this year’s IKU assessment is very strict, because the assessment of the PTN Satker Academic and PTN Satker Arts categories which were assessed separately last year, are now merged into one assessment category. The final results of the IKU assessment have gone through a fairly rigorous validation and verification process and are submitted through the Director General of PTN 2022 IKU Achievement Awards. BOPTN incentives with a total value of Rp. 347 billion will be given to PTNs based on their respective achievements.
