Polibatam Has a Chip Making Study Program

NEWS-Batam State Polytechnic (Polibatam) now has a Chip Manufacturing Program or Manufacturing Electronics Engineering which is the only one in Indonesia. This study program aims to make chip components for electronic goods, even electric cars.

“We have a Manufacturing of Electronics Program. This study program is the only one in Indonesia, which is only available at Politeknik Negeri Batam, “explained the Director of Polibatam, Uuf Bragjawidagda, quoted from the Vocational Ministry of Education and Culture page.

Later, the chip can be used for all electronic components, such as computers, cellphones, washing machines, and refrigerators, including electric cars that require up to 2,000 chips in them. “Indonesia is a big market. Are we going to be just a market, or are we also playing to produce chip,” said Uuf.

The existence of the Manufacturing of Electronics Program in Polibatam cannot be separated from the area which is known as one of the industrial areas in Indonesia. Therefore, several companies have also cooperated in chip manufacturing. “We are grateful that Batam is an industrial area and several companies have ordered chips from us. Therefore, we have prepared human resources,” he said.

Furthermore, Uuf explained that several students of the Chip-making program had also undertaken internships abroad. “Some of our students have internships in Hungary, and get allowances,” he said.

Yusfa Hendri as Assistant for Government and People’s Welfare, Regional Secretariat of Batam City, said that Polibatam is an educational institution that Batam City is very proud of. “This is very remarkable, it turns out that Batam has Batam Polytechnic (Polibatam), very proud. It turns out that here, we have prepared all the needs for the job market that can be absorbed in all job fields. At Polibatam, there are Multimedia Animation, Robotics, and Chip Making programs,” he said.

According to Yusfa, the chip-making program is not only needed domestically, but also worldwide. “So, Polibatam is one of the colleges that has answered the needs of the industry,” he added.

In addition to the program of Manufacturing Electronics, Polibatam also has a program in the Aircraft Industry which is equipped with hangar and aircraft facilities. Not only that but there is also an animation program that is known to have produced animated cartoon films.
