Facing it all, how should all professions strive to exist. For this reason, serious efforts are needed to prepare oneself to excel in competition, the key is to have the skills needed by the industry today, including creative, innovative, service orientation. Completion of formal education is not stopping to learn, but lifelong learning.

He also hopes that the graduates will continue to uphold the good name of the alma mater and implement the values of Defending the Country in the professions they will later undertake.
"My hope is to entrust the name of UPNVJ's alma mater, make UPNVJ proud, help UPNVJ become a university whose graduates are recognized by the community. Be a professional doctor, have integrity, uphold professional ethics. Not subject to any urge to break the rules, propriety under any circumstances. He can become a doctor who is known by patients as a doctor who is not material-oriented but service-oriented, a doctor who has empathy and becomes a doctor who shows the identity of defending the country and loving the country," he hoped.
