Fakultas Ekonomi dan Bisnis (FEB) Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta (UNY) melakukan kunjungan benchmarking ke Telkom University dan Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia (UPI) Bandung pada Kamis (16/5) lalu. Kegiatan ini bertujuan untuk memperkaya pengalaman dan pengetahuan dalam pengembangan kurikulum serta persiapan pembukaan prodi baru di FEB UNY. Pada kunjungan pertama ke Telkom University, delegasi FEB UNY yang terdiri dari 14 orang, termasuk Wakil Dekan Bidang Akademik, Kemahasiswaan dan Alumni, Wakil Dekan Bidang Perencanaan Keuangan Umum dan Sumber Daya, tim task force, kepala layanan akademik, dan staf humas, disambut di Ruang Rapat Manterawu Fakultas Komunikasi dan Bisnis Telkom University oleh Wakil Dekan I Fakultas Komunikasi Bisnis Telkom University, Dr. Freddy Yusanto, dan Kaprodi Administrasi Bisnis, Dr. Ahmad Yunani dan beberapa dosen.

Freddy dalam sambutannya menyampaikan, “Telkom University telah menerapkan kurikulum berbasis Outcome-Based Education (OBE), di mana pengujian dilakukan berdasarkan pada hasil belajar yang diinginkan (CLO). Sistem manajemen akademik yang digunakan oleh Telkom University, yakni Igrasias, telah diadaptasi sesuai dengan prinsip OBE, di mana evaluasi dilakukan secara otomatis dan keseluruhan proses asesmen diintegrasikan dalam sistem. Salah satu hal menarik dari OBE adalah absensi ujian tengah semester dan ujian akhir semester, yang digantikan dengan sistem penilaian yang kontinyu," urainya.

Pada kesempatan tersebut, Freddy juga mengumumkan rencana pemindahan Prodi Administrasi Bisnis yang saat ini berada di Fakultas Komunikasi dan Bisnis tahun depan akan pindah ke Fakultas Ekonomi dan Bisnis di Telkom University. 

Sementara itu Wakil Dekan Bidang Akademik FEB UNY Dr. Sutirman, M.Pd. dalam sambutannya menyampaikan keinginan untuk belajar bersama dari Telkom University terkait dengan informasi visi, misi, tujuan program studi, capaian pembelajaran dan profil lulusan program studi, struktur mata kuliah, struktur pengelola, fasilitas pembelajaran, strategi pengembangan, serapan lulusan di dunia kerja, dan sistem penjaminan mutu program studi, serta menyampaikan apresiasi atas sambutan hangat yang diterima.

Setelah kunjungan ke Telkom University, rombongan FEB UNY melanjutkan perjalanan ke Fakultas Pendidikan Ekonomi dan Bisnis Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia (FPEB UPI) Bandung. Disambut oleh Wakil Dekan Bidang Sumber Daya dan Keuangan Dr. Toni Heryana, Kaprodi S1 Pendidikan Bisnis, serta dosen dan staf prodi terkait di FPEB UPI, pertemuan ini menjadi ajang berbagi pengalaman dan pengetahuan antara kedua institusi.

Di UPI Bandung, diskusi berfokus pada pengembangan prodi baru dan peningkatan kualitas pendidikan. Wakil Dekan Bidang Akademik, Kemahasiswaan dan Alumni FEB UNY menyampaikan harapan untuk mengintegrasikan Pendidikan Bisnis ke dalam program studi Manajemen, sementara FPEB UPI memberikan informasi mengenai rencana pembukaan prodi baru di tingkat magister dan doktoral serta pencapaian akreditasi prodi yang telah dicapai.

Diskusi dan pemaparan visi dan misi dari masing-masing pihak menjadi momentum penting dalam memperkuat kerjasama lintas perguruan tinggi. Pertukaran ide dan pengalaman ini diharapkan dapat memberikan kontribusi positif bagi pengembangan kurikulum dan manajemen prodi di FEB UNY serta memperkaya ekosistem pendidikan tinggi di Indonesia.

Yuliansah continued, FEB UNY has laboratories at the faculty level, department level, and study program level. "The Office Simulation Laboratory, for example, is used for office simulation practice and office administration competency testing. Meanwhile, the Office Technology Laboratory is often used as a practice site for vocational schools, in addition to being used by other universities and the public," he added. (tian-fdhl)

The Student Affairs of the Faculty of Economics and Business at the State University of Yogyakarta (FEB UNY) recently conducted a visit to the Faculty of Economics and Business at the State University of Semarang (FEB UNNES). The delegation was led by the Vice Dean for Academic, Students, and Alumni Affairs of the Faculty of Economic and Business UNY, Dr. Sutirman, M.Pd., and attended by student supervisors as well as the Head of Administrative Services and representative of FEB UNY administration staff. The delegation was welcomed by the Vice Dean for Academic and Student Affairs of FEB UNNES, Agung Yulianto, S.Pd., M.Si., the Vice Dean for Planning and Resources Affairs Prof. Dr. Amin Pujiati, M.Si., representatives of student supervisors and also some student organization administrators.

In his speech, Agung Yulianto welcomed the delegation of FEB UNY. “We are grateful to FEB UNY for allowing us to visit some time ago. After the visit, we implemented the recommendations that we got there. These include appreciation and awarding to outstanding students,” Agung explained.

Responding to Agung, Sutirman said that FEB UNY believes that the student affairs of FEB Unnes is now more advanced. “This is indeed our return visit that aims to improve students achievements in FEB UNY,” he said.

Agung continued, FEB Unnes through student affairs has created many programs to advance students' achievements. “Student Activity Forum (UKM) is the spearhead of achievement development centers. We also compiled a soft skills development guidebook to help students develop according to their potential,” he continued.

“There are several development patterns, The first is soft skills and career, including entrepreneurship, public speaking, and career coaching. Second, students' achievements in the form of Mapres (Mahasiswa Berprestasi) mentoring and awarding achievements. The next is character and leadership, including studium generale, workshops, etc.,” Agung explained.

After the visit, the delegation of FEB UNY conducted a workshop on student affairs guided by Endra Murti Sagoro, M.Sc., and Yolandaru Septiana, M.Pd. Endra, who often supervises the Student Creativity Program (PKM), said that lecturers play an important role in improving students’ achievement.

"Lecturers should be able to help students to focus on achievement, provide motivation and inspiration, strengthen student competencies, and provide resources and guidance," he explained.

Meanwhile, Yolandaru shared several ideas to increase students’ participation in achievement. "For students' achievements to be optimal, it certainly requires the role of supervisors, supportive campus policies, and awards for those who excel. Students can also be encouraged to participate in competitions in several ways, whether by their initiative, appointed by lecturers, or involved in writing articles with lecturers," Yolandaru explained.

In addition, Yolandaru continued, the role of alumni is equally important in assisting students’ development. "Alumni are assets that need to be empowered, especially those who as students often excelled in various competitions. The campus should not cut off communication, especially during the process of mentoring or guiding competitions. They can also be involved in writing articles with lecturers, and rewarded with appropriate honorariums or fees," said Yola. (tyan-ella-fdhl)
