The Master’s Program in Agro-Industrial Technology at the Faculty of Agricultural Technology, Universitas Gadjah Mada, is designed to enhance graduate capacities and to develop agroindustrial professionals with entrepreneurial spirit, grounded in technology and environmental awareness (agroindustrial eco-techno-preneurs). These professionals are expected to manage agroindustrial systems productively, adopt consumer-oriented perspectives, and maintain high competitiveness at both local and global levels. The program adopts a systems-based perspective that positions agriculture as an integrated system, linking the entire supply and value chain, from farmers and input suppliers to processors, distributors, and retailers, each of which plays a critical and interconnected role. A systems approach, combined with mastery of managerial technology, engineering technology, and agroindustrial manufacturing systems, constitutes the defining characteristic of the Master’s Program in Agro-Industrial Technology. Through this approach, graduates are equipped to drive sustainable agroindustrial development in an increasingly competitive global environment.
