The Dean of FMHS Unismuh Makassar, Prof. Dr. dr. Suryani As’ad, M.Sc., Sp.GK(K)., emphasized that the entire FMHS academic community had prepared thoroughly and collaboratively for the evaluation process.

“We observed a strong institutional commitment to building a culture of quality in specialist medical education, encompassing curriculum development, faculty resources, and clinical training sites. The findings identified are primarily related to refinement rather than fundamental issues,” he remarked.

Meanwhile, the assessor for Dermatology and Venereology, Prof. Dr. dr. Hendra Gunawan, conveyed positive views regarding the development of human resources and academic networks at FMHS Unismuh Makassar.

“This program has significant potential to grow, both in clinical services and research. With several minor adjustments, the program is generally suitable and highly likely to be recommended,” he stated at the conclusion of the evaluation.

The entire field evaluation process was conducted in a conducive academic atmosphere, characterized by open dialogue, data clarification, and direct inspection of educational facilities and clinical service units. The university and faculty welcomed all recommendations provided by the assessors as part of a continuous quality improvement effort.

With the completion of the field evaluation and the generally positive assessment outcomes, FMHS Unismuh Makassar is optimistic that the three Specialist Medical Education Programs will obtain the Decree of Establishment of Study Programs. The establishment of these programs is expected to further strengthen Unismuh Makassar’s contribution to improving the quality of healthcare services and medical education at the national level.
