Furthermore, FISIPOL has established facilities like the Digital Intelligence Class to support free education on Artificial Intelligence (AI), demonstrating UGM’s commitment to the Merdeka Belajar initiative. The three progressive stages of AI learning facilitate a comprehensive understanding of the subject.

UGM also fosters talent development through the Gelanggang Inovasi & Kreativitas (GIK), which provides significant opportunities for students to enhance their soft and hard skills. Additionally, UGM has collaborated with various faculties to offer business management training that aims to bolster Indonesia’s food sovereignty, successfully engaging over 100 farmers.

Notably, the Koleksi Langka provides an online repository of rare collections, further enriching the academic resources available to the public.
The Tourism Study Center Library at UGM serves as a vital resource for those interested in tourism studies, hosting workshops and providing relevant literature to support various research activities. UGM also facilitates access to research tools through its Main Library website, ensuring students, staff, and faculty can easily conduct quality research.
