Alumni Testimonials

USU Faculty of Agriculture alumni are highly principled and have strong personalities.

I was a student in the class of 1991 and completed my studies at the Universitas Sumatera Utara (USU) Faculty of Agriculture in 1997. The alumni of the USU Faculty of Agriculture have a very good character and a strong personality to be placed in any work sector, especially those of us who work in the plantation sector. We are able to face various challenges and harsh environmental situations due to the experience and education we received from the study program. Solidarity with classmates and seniors is a valuable asset for future work after completing studies.

A warm campus life filled with values

It is an honor to be an alumnus of the Undergraduate Program in Agriculture, Faculty of Agriculture, USU. In addition to the basic knowledge of agriculture that serves as my main provision to be engaged in the plantation research field, the warm and value-filled campus life has greatly helped me to be able to compete with alumni from other reputable universities, both nationally and internationally. I hope this positive aspect can be maintained and even enhanced to create resilient alumni with high competence and the ability to bring change to the local, national, and international society. Thank you.
