Now , I meet another awesome subjects in my graduate program to reach M.Pd degree , yeay, The subjects cover :

Yap , some of the subjects in graduate program are the same as the subjects in undergraduate program. However , the assignments are different and more complex. Okay , when some people ask me : why do you continue your study? Yap, there are several reasons : InsyaAllah I wanna be a lecturer in University level, I wanna be a professional educator/ expert in English Education field.
Based on the leaflet of English Education Graduate Program in UNNES, the aims of the program:
It produces experts with Master of Education (Magister Pendidikan) qualification in English Education who 1) have a professional competence in teaching English as foreign language, 2) being able to develop self-individual, students, and society through the responsibles ways scientifically, morally, and socially, 3) being able to participate actively, creatively, and dynamically in the development of society in the local, regional, national, and international levels, 4) Being excellent in competition and collaboration fairly and being responsible to achieve the prosperous of world's society.
Hopefully, I can achieve those aims, aamiin , wish me luck ^_^
