Launching an article entitled Maya Nabila, ITB's youngest doctoral student, 21 years old, uploaded to the ITB page, Maya Nabila took the Mathematics study program at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (FMIPA) ITB.
This woman who was born in Padang, 9 May 1999 entered elementary school at a very young age of five years.
Then, at the high school level, he took the accelerated program so that he finished secondary education in a period of two years plus graduated from undergraduate education in less than four years.
Since being a child, Maya Nabila admitted that she loved going to school.
"Since a long time ago I really like learning new things and thank God there is an opportunity to continue my Masters / Doctoral Degree with the PMDSU program. Maybe there is also a family environmental factor, because my father also went to doctoral degree," said Maya.
He continued his Masters at ITB with a Masters Education scholarship to Doctorate for Excellence Undergraduate (PMDSU) Kemenristekdikti.
Maya had a problem having to adjust the lessons previously obtained when taking undergraduate studies at Andalas University Mathematics study program.
When asked about the feeling of being the youngest doctoral student, he replied, "The feeling is, well, I am happy, but this has not turned out to be anything, right, I have just become the youngest student at this time, I have not had any contribution to the campus or the country."
He hopes that by continuing to study at ITB, he can learn more, add networks so he can get to know the outside world, and get out of his comfort zone.
"I have aspirations to become a lecturer, I want to teach and share the knowledge I got while studying at ITB. I also hope that in whatever institution I am in, I can have a positive influence there, "said the graduate of Andalas University.
Maya's closest target now is to finish her doctorate on time, then find a job. Besides wanting to be a good lecturer, Maya hopes to have the opportunity or ability to establish a school. Especially for people who cannot afford it because according to him education is important.
"Building character and mindset is important in life, maybe there are several things that can be learned from non-formal education, but for certain things such as socialization, courtesy, scientific development, and technology, it can be helped by taking formal education," Maya ordered.
