Polije Student Earns Bronze in Poster Presentation at IPEC II 2025

Radiktya Pangastawa Subroto, a student of Politeknik Negeri Jember (Polije), successfully won a Bronze Medal in the Poster Presentation category, Novice division, at the Indonesian Polytechnic English Championship (IPEC) II 2025. The national competition was hosted by Politeknik Negeri Manado and took place at its campus in North Sulawesi.

Despite his achievement, Radiktya admitted to having mixed feelings about the results.

“I still feel a bit unsatisfied because I did not achieve the minimum result I expected when I reached the finals. But since the outcome cannot be changed, I have to accept it with a heavy heart. At the same time, I am also happy because I had the chance to compete at a national event like IPEC,” he shared.

Remaining optimistic, Radiktya emphasized his determination to keep improving.

“My hope for the future is to have another opportunity to join competitions like IPEC or similar events. Of course, I will prepare with a better training strategy and practice compared to this year,” he added.

Participation in IPEC II 2025 became a valuable learning experience for Radiktya, strengthening his confidence in English communication and scientific presentation skills.

His achievement also reflects Polije’s commitment to empowering students to compete at the national level, demonstrating that with persistence and continuous learning, students can achieve greater results in future competitions.
