BEM is an intra-campus student organization which is an Executive Body at the University level. BEM is an institution that can accommodate the aspirations of students who have the enthusiasm to make changes in emotional, intellectual paradigms as well as religious values⁵. At ULM, BEM plays an important role in regulating and controlling organizational dynamics and student aspirations.
Meanwhile, DPM is a Student Legislative Body in Higher Education which is the highest institution that manages and controls the organizational dynamics and aspirations of students in Higher Education. DPM ULM acts as BEM supervisor.
These two organizations play an important role in facilitating and representing student aspirations, as well as contributing to the development and improvement of the quality of academic and non-academic life on campus.
