Undiknas Holds BIPA Classes for International Students in the TIAS 2025 Program
Denpasar — Universitas Pendidikan Nasional (Undiknas) demonstrated its commitment to supporting the internationalization of higher education by conducting Indonesian Language for Foreign Speakers (BIPA) classes for international students receiving The Indonesian AID Scholarship (TIAS) 2025. This scholarship program is an initiative of the Indonesian Government managed by Indonesian AID to support human resource capacity development in partner countries. (11/11)
TIAS 2025 participants come from various friendly countries and continue their studies at several universities in Indonesia, including Undiknas. The BIPA classes at Undiknas play a crucial role in the academic and socio-cultural adaptation of scholarship recipients, facilitating smoother learning during their studies in Indonesia.
The BIPA classes are led by Ida Ayu Fortuna Ningrum, S.Pd., M.Pd., a BIPA instructor at Undiknas. With her experience and expertise in teaching Indonesian to foreign speakers, she provides interactive and contextual learning to help students understand the Indonesian language while also learning local cultural values.
The BIPA program is designed not only to develop everyday language skills but also to meet academic communication needs. Learning covers grammar, vocabulary, speaking and writing skills, as well as cultural understanding, equipping students for both academic life and social interactions in Indonesia.
Undiknas’ participation as one of the universities implementing the TIAS program reflects the government’s trust in the university’s capacity to nurture international students and strengthen global networks in higher education. Through this program, Undiknas continues to assert its position as an inclusive and competitive international campus.
With the BIPA classes in place, TIAS 2025 students are expected to adapt more quickly, gain optimal academic experiences, and take home valuable knowledge and experiences to contribute to their home countries.
