The Merdeka Student Exchange (PMM) has been an important step in fostering cross-cultural collaboration among students of the Statistics Study Programme. The program, which is part of the Kampus Merdeka initiative, allows students to learn and grow in different academic environments across the country. Statistics students participating in PMM have the rare opportunity to deepen their statistical knowledge while experiencing the valuable nuances of cultural diversity. It is not just about classroom learning, but also about life experiences that enrich their insights in statistics as well as interpersonal skills.
Merdeka Campus has opened doors for statistics students to explore various scientific and cultural perspectives. Students who participate in PMM, can expand their professional networks, build confidence in adapting to new environments, and hone cross-cultural communication skills. These students not only become ambassadors of their institutions but also agents of change who contribute to the development of global statistics. Thus, PMM is not only about academic exchange but also about building a solid intercultural bridge to enrich the future of statistical science.
