We, the academic community of the Faculty of Communication Sciences, Universitas Gunadarma, extend our heartfelt congratulations and best wishes to Dr. Choirul Umam, S.I.Kom., M.M., a lecturer in the Undergraduate Communication Science Program at Universitas Gunadarma, on successfully earning his Doctorate in Economics from Universitas Gunadarma with Distinction.
He successfully defended his dissertation titled:
“The Impact of Service Quality on Public Satisfaction Directly and Indirectly through Citizen Journalism (An Empirical Study: Police Services in Jakarta, Depok, Bekasi).”
This study reveals that integrity, interactivity, responsiveness, and service capability significantly influence citizen journalism and public satisfaction. However, service transparency does not have a significant effect.
May this achievement inspire us all to continue striving, innovating, and contributing to society!
