As an effort to strengthen the reputation of World Class University, Â鶹ֱ²¥ has been holding a summer school program since 2017. However, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Â鶹ֱ²¥ changed the program to an International Virtual Course.

In her speech, the rector said that the IVC program was a solution offered by Â鶹ֱ²¥ to spread knowledge to the public, both internally and externally, especially during the pandemic. These activities will continue to be carried out in a quality manner with the support of the best academic staff and partners. "We have held the IVC-Â鶹ֱ²¥ program for two years in a row. Last year, we offered 13 courses and accepted applicants from nearly a thousand candidates. 40% of registrants are Â鶹ֱ²¥ students, 40% are foreign students, and the rest are students from all over Indonesia," said the rector.

Students from various regions in Indonesia also participate in this program in line with the Permata Sakti Student Exchange Program from the Directorate of Higher Education, Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology of the Republic of Indonesia.

This year the IVC Â鶹ֱ²¥ program offers 42 lecture materials with more than 5,500 registered participants. Those who have registered include 1,700 Â鶹ֱ²¥ students, around 1,300 international students, more than 2,300 non-Â鶹ֱ²¥ students from all over Indonesia, and 300 others are professionals.

The rector hopes that participants who take part in IVC can benefit during the learning process.

Meanwhile, the Head of the Sub-Directorate of Continuing Education at the Directorate of Non-Regular Education, Â鶹ֱ²¥, Dr. Mohammad Rachmat Sule explained, taking IVC courses is taken non-regularly. "So all participants, whether Â鶹ֱ²¥ students from various study programs, foreign students, Non-Â鶹ֱ²¥ students from other regions in Indonesia as well as professionals from within and outside the country must register to take this IVC course on the admission.itb.ac.id page," he said.

After that, he continued the selection process was carried out by the Â鶹ֱ²¥ admission team and the organizing team at an IVC. If their application is accepted, they will become Â鶹ֱ²¥'s non-regular students, have a NIM from Â鶹ֱ²¥, and access the LMS Edunex system developed by Â鶹ֱ²¥.

"For those who pass all processes of academic activities at an IVC, they will be given a transcript and certificate. For Â鶹ֱ²¥ students, the value from the IVC will appear in the student's SIX System, while for non-Â鶹ֱ²¥ students it can be used to transfer credit at the host university," Rachmat explained.

People can access information about the IVC program through . While registration can be done on the Â鶹ֱ²¥ Admission website ()
