Shaping Innovation for Global Food and Agricultural Challenges
Global challenges in food and agriculture, both scientific and technological, continue to demand bold ideas, cutting-edge innovations, and future-ready human resources. Higher education institutions play a strategic role in responding to these challenges by building strong foundations in knowledge, technology, and skills, while advancing adaptive, creative, and globally oriented mindsets.
The Agricultural Product Technology (THP) Study Program at the University of Jember is committed to developing excellent graduates and impactful research that contribute to sustainable food systems and agricultural innovation. We actively facilitate international exposure for our teaching staff and students through academic mobility, research collaboration, and overseas learning experiences at leading national and international universities. This global engagement strengthens adaptability, enhances academic quality, and drives innovation in teaching and learning amid rapid technological transformation.
Our study program conducts a wide range of innovative and competitive research addressing real-world challenges in food and agricultural technology. Beyond academic competition, we place strong value on knowledge exchange, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the integration of diverse perspectives. We encourage industry practitioners, communities, and policymakers to benefit from and apply our research outcomes to create tangible societal impact. We firmly believe that high-quality research is a key instrument in combating hunger and advancing food security, in line with the mission of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
Addressing global food challenges is a long-term endeavor. However, through strategic partnerships with food industries, research institutions, government agencies, universities, and other stakeholders, we are confident in our ability to deliver meaningful solutions. We warmly invite partners from around the world to collaborate with us through student exchange programs, joint research initiatives, community service projects, and other innovative academic activities.
Excellence is our priority. Collaboration is our strength. Innovation is our future.
Warm regards,
Lailatul Azkiyah, S.TP., M.P., Ph.D.

We are incredibly proud to congratulate our third-year THP students, Halwa Khamulla Neilidya Prasetya and Aulia Zuli Az Zahra, who recently secured a highly competitive internship at BRIN Gunungkidul, Yogyakarta. This achievement marks a significant and highly connected network of THP UNEJ and BRIN. This internship is a full-time and fully funded program. This program offers the opportunity for students to further develop their research skills, including problem-solving, data analysis, and teamwork.
Started in February 2026, they will support BRIN’s pivotal research in seaweed utilization as prebiotics for over the next five months. Halwa, with her research topic “Potential Utilization of Seaweeds as Prebiotics in Improving the Quality and Nutritional Profiles of Fermented Sausage”, will be supervised by THP Lecturer Dr. Niken Widya Palupi S.TP., M.Sc., and co-supervisor from BRIN Selma Noor Permadi, S.Pt., M.Si. Aulia and her supervisors, Dr. Niken Widya Palupi S.TP., M.Sc. (THP Lecturer), and Dr. Teguh Wahyono, S.Pt., M.Si. (BRIN), will investigate “Seaweed Extraction Techniques, Prebiotic Analysis, and Application in Food Products”. In the dynamic research environment, Halwa and Aulia will also work together with other selected participants, as relevant and appropriate.
We are so proud of you and can't wait to see the upcoming impact you will make!

You did it!
It is a remarkable achievement, and a big effort must be made within 2-3 years to reach the proud moment of a successful public hearing. In front of an audience, Dr. Intan Ria Neliana and Dr. Riska Ayu Febrianti valued the widest possible application of biotechnology in agriculture and pharmaceutical fields. Dr. Intan proudly presented her research entitled “Molecular Identification and Development of Genetic Engineering for Resistance to Multiple Mosaic Virus Infection using the Coat Protein Genes in Sugarcane” to address the vulnerability of sugarcane. Dr. Riska, with her research title “Modification of Host Specificity of Bacteriophage Φsen-NF using CRISPR/Cas9 as a Therapeutic Strategy for Multidrug-Resistant Salmonella enterica Infection,” is driving breakthrough discovery in alternative therapeutic agents.
The journey continues. We hope their meaningful work will help in solving a long-standing puzzle about sugarcane infections and multidrug resistance and contribute to many practical applications. We also wish for their continued success in their future pursuits.
