SEG Benchmarking conduct benchmarking or study visits to other SEG student chapters from different universities or similar student organizations. This program aims to exchange knowledge, best practices, and innovative strategies for improving SEG ITB SC’s operations and member engagement.
In September 2025, we conducted a SEG Guest Lecture through an international collaboration with UDGS (SEG University of Dhaka, Bangladesh). This session focused on cultural exchange and geophysical studies, with lecturers from the University of Dhaka serving as the speakers.
SEG Career Preparation
Organize webinar sessions that provide members with practical advice and insights into career paths in geoscience industries.
Career Preparation was first conducted in May and focused on play-based exploration with an invited guest speaker to support members’ career readiness. The program was subsequently held again in July and October 2025 with different career-related topics.
SEG Excursion
Organize excursions for SEG ITB SC members to geophysical sites to enhance their practical knowledge. These excursions will involve field visits to locations of geological interest.
We conducted a SEG Excursion in July 2025 at the Batulawang Geological Site, Cirebon, West Java. During this activity, participants learned about the local geology and the formation processes of the exposed rock units, guided directly by Prof. Dr. Ir. Satria Bijaksana.
SEG Goes To Conference
Facilitate SEG ITB SC members' participation in geoscience and industry conferences, such as IPA Convex, by providing information and coordinating the registration process. The aim is to provide members with access to valuable learning experiences, industry insights, and professional networking opportunities.
We conducted SEG Goes to Conference in May 2025 by attending IPA Convex, one of the largest oil and gas conferences and exhibitions in Indonesia organized by the Indonesian Petroleum Association. Through this activity, members gained exposure to the energy industry, professional networking opportunities, and insights into current developments in oil and gas exploration and technology.
SEG Roadshow
