AMI 2013 is a year to year event organized by the KM-ITB, and is now the third year. AMI 2013 itself aims to motivate children of Indonesia, particularly the senior high school students in order to have the awareness and the desire to continue their education at university.
Not only that, AMI 2013 also socialize everything about ITB, ranging from the implementation of the provisions of ITB, SNMPTN 2013, introduction of faculty and school education, until scholarship information. "Until now ITB is well known as an expensive campus, but the reality is not like that. Therefore, we want to change the paradigm with AMI 2013," said Reza Fachrizal (Electricity Power Engineering 2010), Chief Executive of AMI 2013.
To achieve this, a series of events has been carried out by the committee of AMI 2013, Paguyuban Back to School, Roadshow, Love Letter To Indonesia (Surat Cinta Untuk Indonesia, SCUI), Freestyle Writing Contest. And AMI 2013 will be closed with a culminating event i.e. ITB Day.

With a target of 3000 high school students from all over Indonesia, the year 2013 will implement AMI seminars and Education Fair. There will be grand seminars and panel discussions, as well as the motivation to learn interesting and effective way for preparing test SNMPTN 2013, while the Education Fair will provide booths from the ITB student unions from various study programs and scholarship stands. It is hoped that all information about the courses and the cost of education can be accessed easily.
With the AMI 2013, the doors of Indonesian children's dreams may be able to open for a better higher education. "ITB is not a campus for rich, genius people, but ITB is a campus for people who dare to dream and dare to make it happen," closed Reza.
