Surakarta, June 24, 2025 — Universitas Terbuka (UT) students have once again brought honor to the university through outstanding achievements at the Central Java Provincial Student Sports Week (POMPROV) 2025. Arjun Muhammad Royan, a 6th-semester student of the S1 Management Study Program from UT Surakarta, successfully secured two prestigious medals in athletics.
Arjun achieved remarkable results by winning 1st place in Men’s Long Jump and 2nd place in Men’s Triple Jump. Thanks to these achievements, Arjun has qualified to represent Central Java in the upcoming National Sports Week (PON).
Previously, Arjun also achieved national recognition at the 2023 Run and Jump Competition Athletics Championship, winning 2nd place in Men’s College Triathlon and 3rd place in Men’s Triple Jump. His consistency in athletics demonstrates his dedication and commitment, not only as a student but also as an accomplished athlete.
Flexible Studies, Talents Continue to Flourish
For Arjun, choosing UT was not just about academics, but about opening up a wider space for growth. UT’s flexible distance learning system provided him with the opportunity to optimally balance his studies and training.
“Learning at UT greatly supports my activities as an athlete. The flexible schedule allows me to stay focused on training without neglecting academic obligations,” said Arjun.
Arjun’s story is tangible proof that at UT, students can remain productive and achieve in non-academic fields without sacrificing their academic accomplishments. The combination of quality education and flexibility makes UT an ideal choice for active students who want to develop holistically.
Come On, UT Students, Bring Honor to the University in All Fields!
Arjun’s success serves as an inspiration for all UT students across Indonesia to continue exploring their potential and showing that studying at UT is not an obstacle to achievement—rather, it becomes an opportunity to shine brighter.
Let’s support Arjun and other UT students to continue progressing and bring the name of Universitas Terbuka to national and international levels!
