Muhammadiyah University of Purworejo (UMPWR) - During the reorganization of the Student Organisation (Ormawa) for the 2025/2026 term, UMPWR organised Baitul Arqam for the Muhammadiyah Autonomous Organisation (Ortom). The Ortom referred to are those within the UMPWR environment, namely IMM, Tapak Suci, Hizbul Wathan, and Kokam. Among these four Ortom, Kokam is still classified as a community and is currently preparing the necessary legal documentation to become a student organisation. This Baitul Arqam activity is conducted in collaboration with the Muhammadiyah Regional Leadership (PDM) of Purworejo District's Education, Cadre Development, and Human Resources Council (MPKSDI).
Dedi Runanto, Head of Student Affairs at UMPWR, stated that the Baitul Arqam activity aims to align the university's vision with that of the student organisations. Additionally, materials on administrative procedures were provided with the hope of improving the performance and capacity of the student organisations.
