Lectures
Student Lectures for the DPP FISIPOL UGM Doctoral Program begin according to the lecture schedule informed by the DPP manager, by following the academic calendar that has been set by the university and faculty. In the lecture process, students will be divided into lecture and non-lecture pathways. This lecture process is related to the process of preparing candidates as independent researchers. In terms of the process, phase and substance of independent research, it must have an adequate competency weight. For students who do not have the required maximum competence, they will be facilitated with a number of courses which are organized in a structured manner. Thus, the curriculum structure is intended to support the theoretical capacity and methodology used in analyzing political issues offered to doctoral candidate students. However, if there is evidence that the student already has the required maximum competence, then the student is not required to take the specified courses, which automatically go through the non-lecture/waived scheme.
The existence of facilities in the form of lectures with courses can be held in a structured manner if there are more than 5 students. When there are more than 5 students, lecture facilitation is carried out with assistance by experts or with lecture classes in general.
- The doctoral program study load for participants with a master’s degree (S2) in a field is at least 40 credits scheduled for four semesters and can be taken in less than four semesters with a maximum study duration of 10 (ten) semesters.
- The doctoral program study load for participants with master’s education (S2) is not in the same area of at least 50 credits and can be taken for at least 6 (six) semesters and no later than 10 (ten) semesters.
Students who have passed the comprehensive exam can take the academic mentoring process. The promoter and co-promoter supervise students in making proposals, conducting research and preparing dissertation manuscripts. Furthermore, students can take a proposal exam after being approved by the Promoter Team. The proposal exam is a scheduled activity that is held with the lecture season in one semester. If the student is declared repeat, the exam may only be held once and must be held within a maximum of three months from the first proposal exam. Students conduct dissertation research after passing the dissertation proposal examination and obtaining approval from the Promoter Team. The promoter team declares the serviceability of the dissertation manuscript to be assessed by the Assessment Team. Students must revise the dissertation manuscript no later than six months from the date of assessment of the dissertation manuscript. Students take closed examinations after their dissertation manuscript is declared eligible by the Assessment Team. Doctoral Program students who are declared to have passed the closed examination may propose to take part in the graduation or open examination.

Financial Aid
Students can submit proposals for funding assistance for student activities in the form of international conferences. Students can submit an application attached with proof of invitation and event materials. For reports, students can submit proof of plane tickets or accommodation.
Public Lecture
Not only learning from the classroom, public lectures enable students to learn about current issues and practices through resource persons who are experts in their fields. Public lectures broaden the scope of student learning beyond existing courses and provide opportunities for students to interact with these practitioners. The lectures are carried out like workshops so that they are open to all generations.
One of the workshops organized by the UGM Political Science Doctoral Program was filled by Dr. Ismail Fahmi (Founder of Drone Emprit) with the topic “Introduction to Social Network Analysis Materials” with cross-departmental doctoral students and participants in the general category.
Guest Lecturer
Guest lecturers are an effort to channel field knowledge exclusively from practitioners in their fields to students by using discussion methods to question and answer. The presence of guest lecturers makes the discussion in lectures more in-depth. Some courses in the doctoral program invite guest lecturers who are experts in certain lecture themes. Public lectures are held in semester 1.

Research
Research is an important element in the student learning process, therefore the UGM Department of Politics and Government opens wide opportunities for students to collaborate in research activities carried out by the UGM Department of Politics and Government together with the Research Center for Politics and Government (PolGov). Some of the roles that are actively held by students are enumerators, transcriptors, and guides.
As enumerators, students have the opportunity to go out into the field and conduct interviews with resource persons under the guidance of PolGov researchers. As transcriptors, students are able to substantially participate in discussions and research interview results and write them down in text form to be processed into research data. Then, as a guide, students who have knowledge of research areas will go to the field and participate in a series of research with PolGov researchers.
Publication
In terms of publications, student involvement is widely open in making written works in the form of journals and books. Students can publish journals written by students together with the promoter team. In addition, students can get involved through “Call for Paper” by fulfilling the conditions as below:
Writing theme:
- Socio-political movement
- Agrarian-land politics
- Elections and regional head elections
- Other themes related to politics and governance in Indonesia
- Journal manuscripts must consist of a minimum of 4,000 words
- The manuscript has never been accepted or published in any journal
- The author is able to follow the publishing flow in accordance with the provisions of the PolGov Jurnal Journal
Media
Media is a means of communication between stakeholders within the Department of Politics and Government UGM which is manifested in the form of social media Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, TikTok, to spotify “Ministry of Politics and Government UGM”. In its development, the media collaborated with student creativity in course assignments that were accommodated by the “Student Work” segment and collaborated in content creation.
