CHAPTER I
FACULTY OF MATHEMATICS AND NATURAL SCIENCES AT A GLANCE
A. A Brief History of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences

The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (Indonesian: Fakultas MIPA, FMIPA) of Brawijaya University in
the beginning was a Technical Execution Unit (UPT) in the scope of Brawijaya University (UB). Preparations for
the establishment of the Faculty had been conducted since 1981 with the joining of fundamental laboratories in
the UB environment into a Central Laboratory that functions as the laboratory that supports instructional
organization and practicum of basic knowledge for faculties of exact sciences. After the facilities and
infrastructure were considered sufficient for the needs of Undergraduate (Sarjana) education, in 1987 the
Program of Mathematics and Natural Sciences was opened, comprised of the four study programs as the
Undergraduate Study Programs of Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics. As an effort to supplement the
facilities and infrastructure, various forms of cooperation with international parties were instituted, among
others with NUFFIC (Netherlands), IDP (Australia), and GTZ-Germany, which have the objective to improve
lecturer competence, number of laboratory equipment, curriculum design, and organization of higher education.
In its development, the Program gained special attention from the Government through the Department of
Education and Culture, regarding the improvements in facilities and infrastructure as well as improvements in
quantity and quality of the lecturer staff. In accordance with the developments achieved by the Program and
supported by the demands of Program graduates in the fields of development and industry, since 21 October
1993, by Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia Decree Number 0371/0/1993, the status
of the Program was raised to Faculty, composed of four departments as the Department of Biology, Department
of Chemistry, Department of Physics, and Department of Mathematics.
With rapid developments in technology and industry that demands the availability of skilled personnel in the
fields of computers and analysis, based on the sufficient internal capacity in terms of the facilities and human
resources possessed by the Faculty, in 1995 the Diploma III Program of Informatics Management and Computer
Engineering (MITEK) was opened, and in 1997 the Diploma III Program of Chemical Analyst was opened. Next,
more educational programs were added: in 1998, the Study Program of Statistics was opened, and in 2002, the
Study Program of Computer Science was opened, both of which were placed under the Department of
Mathematics. In order to fulfill the demands of the Government as well as the people in the aspects of mitigation
of and response to disasters, with a Decree of the UB Rector, in 2011 the Department of Physics opened two
study programs, the Study Program of Geophysics and the Study Program of Instrumentation.
With the ever-increasing number of lecturers with a doctoral degree, and in order to develop the capacity of the
institution, the Faculty opened a Graduate Program starting in 1997 with the opening of the Master’s Program
of Reproductive Biology. This was followed in 2007 with the opening of the Master’s Program of Chemistry, in
2009 with the Master’s Program of Physics, in 2010 with the Master’s Program of Mathematics, and in 2011 with
the Master’s Program of Statistics. Next, in 2011, the Doctoral Program of Biology was opened, and in 2016,
three doctoral programs were simultaneously opened, as the Doctoral Programs of Chemistry, Physics, and
Mathematics.
In line with regulatory changes for higher education institutions with the formation of a vocational program,
from 2008-2010, the Faculty phased out the Diploma programs, including Diploma III MITEK and Diploma III
Analytical Chemistry. As well, with the institutional changes through a UB Rector Policy in 2012, the Study
Program of Computer Science was merged into a Program of Information Technology and Computer Science,
and was separated from the Faculty. Therefore, up to the year 2013 the Faculty possessed 4 Departments and
16 Study Programs, consisting of Undergraduate Programs (7 Study Programs) and Graduate Programs (5
Master’s Study Programs and 4 Doctoral Study Programs). Based on Minister of Research, Technology, and
Higher Education of the Republic of Indonesia Regulation Number 4 of Year 2016 on the Organization and
Methodology of Brawijaya University and Brawijaya University Rector Regulation Number 20 of Year 2016 on
the Organizational Structure and Methodology, and the reply from the Ministry of Research, Technology, and
Higher Education of the Republic of Indonesia Number 4086/C.C4/KL/2017, the Department of Statistics was
formed, and thus in 2018 the Faculty possessed 5 Departments and 16 Study Programs. With Minister of
1
Education and Culture Decree Number 70/M/2020 on the date of 23 January 2020 on the permission to open
the Study Program of Actuary Science as an Undergraduate Program, the Faculty possesses 5 Departments and
17 Study Programs. This is also denoted in the revised Organizational Structure and Methodology in Brawijaya
University Rector Regulation Number 25 of Year 2020.
To ensure quality in the fields of the Three Pillars of Higher Education and its institutional management, the
Faculty implements a system of quality assurance both internally and externally. The system is implemented by
the formation of quality assurance agencies at the Faculty and Department levels in the form of a Quality
Assurance Task Force for the Faculty and a Quality Assurance Unit for Departments. The success of Brawijaya
University in obtaining the ISO 9001:2008 certificate in 2012 is inescapable from the role of the Faculty in
participating in the ISO 9001:2008 audit in order to obtain the ISO certificate. The Faculty in 2017 and 2018
received the Brawijaya University Annual Quality Award (UBAQA) as the number one-ranked faculty in the
university. In addition, to ensure the quality of its graduates, the Faculty has accredited its study programs
through the National Accreditation Agency for Higher Education (BAN-PT) with grades from good to very good
(Table 1.1).

The Faculty Information System began to be developed in 2000. This development was aided by students
of the Information Technology (IT) concentration, particularly from the Departments of Physics and
Mathematics, to realize functioning Internet and intranet networks of the Faculty. At present, the
information system that has been developed in the field of academics include those for course selections
(KRS) and online registration. With this system, students can make their own course selection inputs by
computers in each department that are connected to the faculty intranet network, and then obtain
printouts at each department. The data inputs are handled by a single integrated server present in the
faculty, and thus all of the information are accessible from the faculty. The information system will be
further developed to cover student evaluations and statistics, which will later allow students to check on
their status at anytime and anywhere, in relation to the annual study evaluation.

CHAPTER II
GENERAL STIPULATIONS FOR THE ORGANIZATION OF EDUCATION IN THE
MASTER’S AND DOCTORAL PROGRAMS IN THE ENVIRONMENT OF THE
In order for higher education to be more able in fulfilling the demands of development, it is necessary to
provide educational programs that are varied and flexible. Brawijaya University, as a higher education institution,
always considers the following seven factors in the organization of education:
1) Students as learners, who naturally possess individual differences whether in talents, interests, or
academic skills.
2) The ever increasing demands of the people for the need for expert workers.
3) The rapid development of science and technology.
4) Educational facilities such as sufficient classrooms, libraries, and laboratories.
5) Administration staff, who affect the smooth organization of academic activities.
6) Lecturers as executors of education, for whom the organization of the learning and teaching process is
based on semester credits, as the component that very much affects the results of the process.
7) Development of the learning and teaching process that accommodates the system of Curriculum Based
on Outcome-Based Education (OBE), which is different for each faculty or study program, and thus the
execution of OBE is delegated to each department or study program.
A. Learning Competence
Competence is the set of intelligent and fully responsible activities that a person possesses as the requirement
to be considered able by the people in executing tasks in various occupational fields. Based on Minister of
Research, Technology, and Higher Education of the Republic of Indonesia Regulation Number 44 of Year 2015,
which was then amended by Minister of Education and Culture as Regulation Number 3 of Year 2020, the
competence of graduates are the minimum criteria on the qualification of graduate abilities, covering attitudes,
knowledge, and skills that are declared in the formulation of graduate learning targets. These refer to the
descriptions of graduate learning targets of the Indonesian National Qualifications Framework (KKNI) and are
equivalent to the levels of qualifications in the KKNI.
Attitudes are correct and cultured behaviors as the results of internalizing and actualization of values and norms
that are reflected in spiritual and social living through the instructional process, student work experiences,
research, and/or community service related to learning. Knowledge is the mastery of concepts, theories,
methods, and/or philosophies of certain fields of discipline in a systematic manner that is obtained through
reasoning in the instructional process, student work experiences, research, and/or community service related
to learning. Skills are abilities to demonstrate performance with usage of concepts, theories, methods, materials,
and/or instruments that are obtained through instruction, student work experiences, research, and/or
community service related to learning, covering:
a) general skills, as general working abilities that are required to be possessed by each graduate in order
to ensure equivalence of graduate abilities according to the program level and type of higher education,
and
b) specific skills, as specific working abilities that are required to be possessed by each graduate according
to the field of discipline of the study program.
The formulation of knowledge and specific skills as part of the graduate learning targets is required to be
composed by forums of similar study programs or their equivalents, or the managers of the study program in
the case that there are no forums for similar study programs. The depth and scope of learning materials at the
Master’s and doctoral levels are required to utilize results of research and community service. Graduates of
11
Master’s programs at the least master (applicative) theories of certain fields of knowledge, and graduates of
doctoral programs at the least master scientific philosophies of certain fields of knowledge and skills.
B. Curriculum
The curriculum of higher education is a set of plans and regulations regarding graduate learning targets, study
materials, processes, and the evaluation that are utilized as guidelines for the organization of a study program.
The curriculum contains a structured set of graduate competence standards. The curriculum contains
courses/modules/blocks that support the achievement of graduate competences and provide freedom for
students to broaden insights and deepen expertise according to their interests, and is supplemented by
descriptions of courses or modules, a syllabus, lesson plans, and evaluation. The curriculum is designed based
on its relevance with objectives, material coverage and depth, and organization that encourage the formation
of the mastery of knowledge (hard skills) and personality and behavioral aptitude (soft skills) that may be applied
in various situations and conditions.
The curriculum as the guidelines for the learning and teaching process of Master’s Programs and Doctoral
Programs in the environment of the Faculty is composed by referring to applicable stipulations and regulations,
as:
1) Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 20 of Year 2003 on the National Education System,
2) Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 12 of Year 2012 on Higher Education,
3) President of Republic of Indonesia Regulation Number 8 of Year 2012 on the Indonesian National
Qualifications Framework (KKNI),
4) Minister of Research, Technology, and Higher Education of the Republic of Indonesia Regulation
Number 44 of Year 2015 on the National Standards for Higher Education (SNDikti), which is then
amended as point (5),
5) Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia Regulation Number 3 of Year 2020 on
the National Standards for Higher Education (SNDikti),
6) Brawijaya University Rector Regulation Number 427/PER/2012 on the Academic Regulations of
Master’s Programs of Brawijaya University, and
7) Brawijaya University Rector Regulation Number 428/PER/2012 on the Academic Regulations of
Doctoral Programs of Brawijaya University.
C. Semester Credits
Semester credits comprise a system of education organization with units to declare the study load of students,
workload of lecturers, learning experiences, and load of program organization. A semester is a unit of time of an
effective learning process of at least 16 weeks, including mid-semester (midterm) examinations and end-of-
semester final examinations. Semester credits (credits for short) are measurements of assessment of learning
experiences that are obtained within semester through scheduled activities per week. Based on Minister of
Research, Technology, and Higher Education of the Republic of Indonesia Regulation Number 44 of Year 2015
amended as Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia Regulation Number 3 of Year 2020
on the National Standards for Higher Education, the following are established:
1) 1 credit for the learning process involving lectures consists of:
a) 50 minutes of face-to-face activities per week per semester;
b) 60 minutes of structured assignments per week per semester; and
c) 60 minutes of independent activities per week per semester.
2) 1 credit for the learning process involving meetings/tutorials/seminars or similar activities consists of:
d) 100 minutes of face-to-face activities per week per semester; and
e) 70 minutes of independent activities per week per semester.
3) 1 credit for the learning process involving practicum, studio practice, workshop practice, field practice,
research, community service, and/or similar learning processes consists of 170 minutes of activities per
week per semester.
12
Semester credits will allow a greater possibility for each student to determine and organize strategies for their
study process in order to obtain the best results according to the plans and conditions of each student.
Characteristics of Semester Credits
1) In each semester, a number of courses are offered, and each course possesses a load that is stated in
semester credits according to what is established in the curriculum.
2) The amount of credits for different courses do not have to be the same.
3) The amount of credits for each individual course is determined on the basis of the amount of efforts to
complete the assignments that are given out in activities of coursework, practicum, or fieldwork, or any
other assignments.
Objectives of Semester Credits
1) To provide an opportunity to students who are proficient and active in learning to be able to complete
their studies in the shortest amount of time.
2) To provide an opportunity to students to be able to take courses that suit their interests, talents, and
abilities.
3) To allow the possibility for the education system with plural inputs and outputs to be executed.
4) To ease the adjustment of the curriculum from time to time with the extremely rapid developments in
science and technology.
5) To allow the possibility for the evaluation system of student learning progress to be organized as well
as possible.
6) To allow the possibility of credit transfers between study programs in a higher education institution or
across institutions.
7) To allow the possibility of student transfers from one higher education institution to another in the
same or similar study program.
Brawijaya University has formally adopted Semester Credits as established by Brawijaya University Rector
Decree Number 22/SK/1976 dated 3 May 1976, and its application is adjusted from year to year based on
applicable regulations.
D. Student Academic Ability Evaluation

For the learning activities and progresses of students, periodic evaluations are conducted that may be in the
form of exams, assignments, and lecturer observation. Examinations may be conducted in various forms,
including as mid-semester examinations, end-of-semester final examinations, thesis examinations (Master’s
programs), and dissertation examinations (doctoral program). The evaluation of student achievements in
academic activities utilizes the following conditions:
1) Evaluation of examination results for courses, theses, and dissertations are conducted by each lecturer
(or a team of lecturers) with usage of the Grade Letter and Grade Point as presented in Table 2.1.
Table 2.1 Evaluation Table for the Academic Achievements of Students
Score Value Range Grade Letter Grade Point Capability Classification
> 80.00 A 4.0 Very Good
75.00 < 𝑁𝐴 ≤ 80.00 B+ 3.5 Between Very Good and Good
69.00 < 𝑁𝐴 ≤ 75.00 B 3.0 Good
60.00 < 𝑁𝐴 ≤ 69.00 C+ 2.5 Between Good and Fair
55.00 < 𝑁𝐴 ≤ 60.00 C 2.0 Fair
50.00 < 𝑁𝐴 ≤ 55.00 D+ 1.5 Between Fair and Poor
44.00 < 𝑁𝐴 ≤ 50.00 D 1.0 Poor
≤ 44.00 E 0 Fail
2) The final score for a course taught by more than one lecturer is the aggregate score from all lecturers
that is combined by the coordinating lecturer.
3) The final score for a course is the aggregate of scores for quizzes, practicum, structured and/or
independent assignments, the mid-semester examination, and the end-of-semester final examination.
The final score is then determined by the criteria in point (2).
13
4) The final score for a thesis or dissertation is the aggregate score of all the components of a thesis or
dissertation, with weights that have been established by each study program.
E. Qualifications of Lecturers for Master’s and Doctoral Programs

Referring to Minister of Research, Technology, and Higher Education of the Republic of Indonesia Regulation

F. Matriculation Program
The matriculation program is a program of lectures for certain courses because candidate students of Master’s
or Doctoral Programs are seen by the managers (the selection teams for Master’s Programs, or candidate
promotor teams for Doctoral Programs) to still be in need of increasing their abilities of knowledge mastery for
certain courses. The matriculation program is conducted at the beginning of Semester 1 and is not part of the
core curriculum of the student academic program. The methodology of execution for the matriculation program
is regulated by each individual study program. The number of credits in the matriculation courses are not
calculated together with the credits of the student academic program. The end result of the matriculation
courses is that students are declared to have passed or not passed. The passing criteria is that each course is
completed with a grade of at least B. Students who do not pass will be given a make-up opportunity by the
managers of the study program. Tuition for the matriculation program paid for by the participants of the
matriculation program themselves and is not included in the payment for the student academic program.
G. Double (Dual) Degree Programs

Double Degree Programs are shared academic programs between study programs of the Master’s Programs in
the environment of the Faculty with similar study programs in international universities or institutions. Students
who participate in the Double Degree program will obtain two diplomas, one from Brawijaya University and
another from the partner international universities or institutions. The execution of the Double Degree Master’s
Programs in the environment of the Faculty is regulated by Brawijaya University Rector Regulation Number
334/PER/2012.
H. Program from Master’s to Doctoral Education for Leading Graduates (PMDSU)

The Educational Program from Master’s to Doctoral Education for Leading Graduates (PMDSU) is an academic
program from the Minister of Research, Technology, and Higher Education that has the objective to provide an
opportunity for leading graduates to be able to (1) complete their studies on time; (2) possess broad research
insights; (3) possess networks of international cooperation; and (4) possess a high publication productivity in a

CHAPTER III
GUIDELINES FOR THE APPLICATION OF OUTCOME-BASED EDUCATION (OBE)
A. INTRODUCTION
1. Background
The realization of the insufficient quality of education started out with the perception that the role of Indonesian
human resources is not quite significant in global living, even in the country itself. The capabilities in creating
products, innovating, and working are often uncompetitive with other countries, even in the ASEAN
environment. Up to the present, it can be seen and perceived that the human resources of the country innovate
more to follow developments generated by developed countries in order to not fall behind. This capability to
only follow has never placed the country ahead of other countries, remaining at most in the middle if not behind,
and making it difficult to become a reference in various fields of life. Realizing this, the government initiated the
Indonesian National Qualifications Framework (KKNI) in 2012, with the objective being to equalize the
capabilities of Indonesian human resources with that of other countries from various occupational and expertise
sectors with minimum standards of learning targets. What is being done up to the present is attempting to
achieve these standards of learning targets, which certainly requires immense efforts by all stakeholders,
particularly higher education.
The selected paradigm by Brawijaya University to achieve the capabilities of human resources by exceeding
existing standards (KKNI and SNPT) is to apply Outcome-Based Education (OBE). The focus is to move from the
classroom or place of learning activities to determine what should be achieved by students (Graduate Learning
Targets) in order to be able to achieve capabilities of lifelong learning in the real, living world to create prosperity
for oneself, the environment, and the world. Outcome-Based Education (OBE) is easy to conceive, but hard to
define. OBE firstly may be differentiated from the traditional method of education by the way of combining
three elements: theories of education, a systematic structure for education, and special approaches in the
practice of learning.
Outcome-Based Education (OBE) clearly focuses and regulates everything in the educational system around what
is important for all students to be able to be successful at the end of their learning experience. This means
starting from a clear picture of what is important for students in order to be able to achieve certain capabilities,
and then organizing the curriculum and its instructions, and designing the assessment to confirm that the
learning process had occurred and is able to be measured and proven at the end of the learning process.
Brawijaya University in this regard follows the fulfillment of the National Standards for Higher Education (SNPT),
which is composed of 8 standards in the field of education:
1. Standards of graduate competence;
2. Standards of learning contents;
3. Standards of learning processes;
4. Standards of learning evaluation;
5. Standards of lecturers and education staff;
6. Standards of learning facilities and infrastructure;
7. Standards of learning management; and
8. Standards of funding for learning.
The fulfillment of the OBE paradigm is conducted by exceeding these standards in order to obtain a leading
accreditation and even international accreditation.
2. Legal Foundations
For the execution of the OBE paradigm in the curriculum, UB refers to the following legal regulations:
1. Law Number 12 of Year 2012 on Higher Education;
2. President of the Republic of Indonesia Regulation Number 8 of Year 2012 on the Indonesian National
Qualifications Framework;
3. Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia Regulation Number 73 of Year 2013 on the
Application of the Indonesian National Qualifications Framework in the Field of Higher Education;
17
4. Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia Regulation Number 3 of Year 2020 on the
National Standards for Higher Education;
5. Brawijaya University Regulation Number 1 of Year 2017 on the Quality Standards of Brawijaya University;
6. Guide to Composition of Higher Education Curriculum in the Era of Industry 4.0 of the Ministry of Research,
Technology, and Higher Education of 2019;
7. Guidebook for Independent Learning – Independent Campus of the Ministry of Education and Culture of
2020; and
8. ASEAN Qualifications Reference Framework 2014.
3. Objectives
One of the considerations for the issuance of a law on higher education is to increase national competitiveness
in facing globalization in all fields. This requires higher education that is able to develop science and technology
and to result in intellectuals, scientists, and/or professionals who are cultured and creative, tolerant, democratic,
steadfast in character, and daring to defend the truth for national interests. As such, Brawijaya University must
play a role in fulfilling expectations with the establishment of the law.
The Law on Higher Education states that the existence of higher education has the objectives of:
a. To develop the potential of students to become people who have faith and believe in the One and
Supreme God and are of noble character as well as healthy, intelligent, capable, creative, independent,
skilled, competent, and cultured for the interests of the nation;
b. To create graduates who master branches of science and/or technology for the fulfillment of national
interests and improvement of national competitiveness;
c. To advance science and technology through research that pays attention to and applies values of
humanity in order to be beneficial for the progress of the nation, progress of civilization, and prosperity of
humanity; and
d. To realize community service based on reasoning and works of research that are beneficial in advancing
general prosperity and contribute to intelligent national living.
To achieve objectives (a) and (b), the SNPT establishes educational standards by fulfillment of the 8 existing
standards. In order to achieve these objectives, the OBE paradigm is utilized and its success is expected to be
fulfilled. At present, UB has possessed Quality Standards that exceed the SNPT in order to carry out the mandate
of the law.
In the field of education, UB has the goals of creating graduates who are academically skilled, entrepreneurially
oriented, professional, independent, oriented to work ethics, disciplined, in possession of a noble character,
insightful in advanced technology in order to be able to compete, and leading at the national and international
levels. For these objectives, the OBE paradigm was selected, and therefore all directions from the learning
process are to head into and reach the future. With future-oriented objectives, the entire community of scholars
of UB must be able to prepare everything as well to face problems that will occur in the far future.
B. THE CONCEPT OF OUTCOME-BASED EDUCATION (OBE)

The concept of OBE prepares students to recognize their own potential and to be ready to go through life and
work in line with their self-development process.
There are three primary elements in the achievement of OBE:
a. CPMK (Course Learning Targets): formulated capabilities to be achieved by students after completion of
courses;
b. CPL (Graduate Learning Targets): formulated capabilities to be achieved by students and to be able to be
proven upon becoming a graduate through measured assessment;
18
c. PEO (Study Program Objectives): capabilities possessed by alumni 3 to 5 years after graduation, who must
possess the capabilities for lifelong learning and self-development, which can be indicated through an
evaluation process called graduate tracing.
The consequence is that the presently discussed science and technology must be prepared for these OBE
objectives. Lecturers and everyone in the academic community must realize this matter. If the lecturers can
become aware of their roles, then the scope of discussed knowledge absolutely must be able to prepare students
to learn by reviews of knowledge in the future at least 5 years after students graduate, or automatically
approximately 10 years continuously from when students began their studies.
For the current conditions at UB, most of the lecturers have understood the principle of OBE, but it is still
necessary to conduct follow-up improvements in everyday practices along with their evaluation. Study programs
at UB are certainly expected to be able to fulfill immediately the highest level of OBE implementation, as
indicated in Table 3.1 below:
Table 3.1 Levels of Implementation of Outcome-Based Education

OBE Outcomes Curriculum Planning Outcomes Continuous
Assessment Assessment Improvement in
Quality Assurance
Level 1 √
Level 2 √ √
Level 3 √ √ √
Level 4 √ √ √ √
Level 5 √ √ √ √ √
Fulfillment of levels 4 or 5 is a necessity for leading accreditation or international accreditation.
C. THE CURRICULUM OF OUTCOME-BASED EDUCATION (OBE)

In the current era of globalization, the world of education faces the challenge of creating human resources who
are able to possess a global role. The resulting impacts from globalization are characterized by occurring
movements of humanity, information, technology, capital, and ideas and descriptions. This condition results in
changes that occur toward values of living in society and in the demands of occupations toward higher education
graduates. What becomes necessary for graduates in facing the impacts of globalization is that graduates are
expected to possess competence according to the demands of knowledge development, technology and art,
occupations, professional expertise, and personality development with a cultural characteristic.
By its development, in the beginning of the 1990s, there was a change in the higher education curriculum in
Indonesia, which previously emphasized the resolution of internal problems of higher education with the target
of mastery of science and technology (Minister of National Education Decree No. 056/U/1994), before switching
to a curriculum that emphasized an educational process that refers to a comprehensive and universal context
of culture and human development. This curriculum has the target of creating graduates who are cultured and
able to play an international role. Guidelines for a new curriculum that is more adaptive to the above conditions
were then established and expressed in Minister of National Education Decree No. 232/U/2000 on the
Guidelines to Composition of Higher Education Curriculum and Evaluation of the Learning Results of Learners
that is then supplemented in Minister of National Education Decree No. 045/U/2002 on the Core Curriculum of
Higher Education, replacing Minister of National Education Decree No. 056/U/1994. The Higher Education
Curriculum that was initially was described as a Content-Based Curriculum (KBI) was then transformed into the
Competence-Based Curriculum (KBK). The objective of Minister of National Education Decree No. 232/U/2000
is to provide liberty and freedom of creativity for each higher education institution in developing the curriculum
according to individual interests and potentials. Next, the further development of competence demands for
graduates of national higher education institutions is particularly for facing the global competition in order for
alumni to be victorious in the era of free competition. Higher education institutions, as one of the national
components in creating graduates, are further demanded to develop the quality of higher education through
development of the KBK system with the Indonesian National Qualifications Framework (KKNI) with the policy
of President of the Republic of Indonesia Regulation Number 8 of Year 2012, which for graduates more
19
emphasizes on the exploration of graduate potentials as individuals who are able to compete in occupations at
both the national and international levels. This Presidential Regulation was further translated as Minister of
Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia Regulation Number 73 of Year 2013 on the Application of
the Indonesian National Qualifications Framework in the field of Higher Education and Minister of Research,
Technology, and Higher Education Regulation Number 44 of Year 2015 on the National Standards for Higher
Education revised as Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia Regulation Number 3 of
Year 2020. These regulations are in line with the OBE curriculum. The difference between curriculum design
based on Minister of Research, Technology, and Higher Education Regulation Number 44 of Year 2015 and based
on the OBE curriculum is the process of establishing the learning targets of the study program, which was initially
based on the KKNI principles, for which the learning targets of the study program were established based on (1)
attitude, (2) knowledge, (3) general skills, and (4) specific skills. This became not only based on KKNI
considerations, but also added considerations of learning targets of study programs that are generally
established by international accreditation institutions, measured study program objectives, and profiles of study
program graduates (graduate attributes) that are established by each study program. For that, all study
programs in the environment of UB are required to adjust their curricula with this approach.
The curriculum at Brawijaya University is the primary foundation for the organization of academic, professional,
specialist, and vocational education toward the achievement of learning results in accordance with the standards
for graduates of Brawijaya University. The curriculum is a set of plans and regulations regarding the contents or
matters of study and learning materials, as well as the methods of delivery and evaluation to ensure the
achievement of graduate competences. Therefore, the presence of the curriculum becomes the primary
reference for each study program in planning and controlling the learning process. Meanwhile, the department
possesses the role of resource manager for the effective and efficient functioning of the study program and to
maintain its quality corridor, whether in the process or expected outcomes. For that, the curriculum is required
to be approved by the Rector by the verification of the Vice-Rector of Academic Affairs for the monitoring of
technical evaluation by the Agency for Education Development and Quality Assurance (LP3M) of Brawijaya
University.
The curriculum of study programs at UB should be composed based on the vision and mission of UB in order to
create graduates with high competences according to the needs of the people and the development of science,
technology, and/or art. The curriculum of a study program covers a single, unified structure of courses for all
levels in the study program that is composed in an integrated manner in to allow students to achieve the
graduate targets (outcomes) that are established for the study program. The structure of courses is adjusted to
development of the understanding of students in the respective discipline. Each course is required to possess a
Semester Lesson Plan (RPS) in accordance to a certain load of semester credits, and to possess a portfolio of the
learning process. The curriculum gives the specific character of a study program and provides a complete picture
regarding the materials, requirements, and general guidelines in executing the process of education. The scope
of the curricula of study programs is expected to follow the template composed by the Education Development
and Quality Assurance (LP3M) of Brawijaya University.
The curriculum functions as the instrument to form the scientific thinking pattern, expertise, and personality of
students. As such, the curriculum must encourage the fulfillment of the required learning targets of the study
program in the form of knowledge and understanding, cognitive skills, special skills (including practical or
professional skills), transferable skills, necessities for work and/or further studies, and the development of
personality. The process of composing the curricula of study programs at UB is required to follow the steps that
are presented in Figure 3.1.

D. CHARACTERISTICS AND PLANNING OF THE LEARNING PROCESS FOR OUTCOME-BASED

EDUCATION (OBE)
In accordance with Minister of Education and Culture Number 3 of Year 2020 on the National Standards for
Higher Education, Brawijaya University is required to execute standards of the learning process as the minimum
criteria for the execution of learning in the study program to achieve the graduate learning targets. Standards
of the learning process cover (a) learning process characteristics, (b) learning process planning, (c) learning
process execution, and (d) student study load.
The learning process possesses the characteristics of interactive, holistic, integrative, scientific, contextual,
thematic, effective, collaborative, and student-centered. Interactive means that the graduate learning targets
are achieved by prioritizing the two-way interactive process between students and lecturers. Holistic means that
the learning process encourages the formation of comprehensive and broad thinking patterns by internalizing
local and national merits and wisdom. Integrative means that the graduate learning targets are achieved
through an integrated learning process to fulfill the entirety of graduate learning targets in the single unity of a
program through interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approaches. Scientific means that the graduate learning
targets are achieved through a learning process that prioritizes the scientific approach to create an academic
environment that is based on the value system, norms, and principles of science and upholds religious and
national values. Contextual means that the graduate learning targets are achieved through a learning process
that is adjusted to the demands of problem-solving capabilities in the domain of the field. Thematic means that
the graduate learning targets are achieved through a learning process that is adjusted to the scientific
characteristics of the study program and related to real problems through a transdisciplinary approach. Effective
means that the graduate learning targets are achieved effectively by prioritizing correct and proper material
internalization in an optimal timeframe. Collaborative means that the graduate learning targets are achieved
through a shared learning process that involves interactions among individual learners to result in the
capitalization of attitudes, knowledge, and skills. Student-centered means that the graduate learning targets are
21
achieved through a learning process that prioritizes the development of student creativity, capacity, personality,
and necessities, and develops independence in seeking and discovering knowledge.
The planning for the learning process is required to be composed for each course and presented in the Semester
Lesson Plan (RPS) that is established and developed by lecturers independently or together in an expertise group
for a field of science and/or technology in a study program. The RPS at UB must at the least contain: (a) the study
program name, course code and name, semester, semester credits, and name of teaching lecturer; (b) the
graduate learning targets that are assigned to the course; (c) the final capabilities planned for each stage of
learning to fulfill graduate learning targets; (d) study materials related to the capabilities to be achieved; (e)
forms and methods of learning; (f) the allotted time for the achievement of capabilities for each stage of learning;
(g) student learning experiences that are realized in the descriptions of tasks to be worked on by students during
one semester; (h) evaluation criteria, indicators, and weights; and (i) the list of utilized references.
Planning of learning related to student research is required to refer to the Standards of Research in the Quality
Standards of UB. The same is true for planning of learning related to community service by students, which is
required to refer to the Standards of Community Service in the Quality Standards of UB. The planning of learning
related to student research and community service by students is regulated by each faculty according to their
scientific characteristics.
E. EXECUTION OF LEARNING BY OUTCOME-BASED EDUCATION (OBE)

The execution of the learning process by OBE in general occurs in the form interactions among lecturers,
students, and learning sources in a certain learning environment that has been properly designed. Likewise, the
learning process by OBE for every course must also be executed according to the Semester Lesson Plan (RPS).
The learning process through curricular activities is required to be conducted in a systematic and structured way
through various courses and with a measured load of learning, and what becomes distinct for OBE is the
assessment process by lecturers toward student capabilities. As with the ordinary learning process, the learning
process by OBE also through curricular activities is required to utilize an effective learning method according to
the characteristics of the course to achieve certain capabilities established in the course for the fulfillment of
graduate learning targets.
There are many methods of learning by OBE that may be selected for the execution of learning in courses,
including group discussions, simulations, case studies, collaborative learning, cooperative learning, project-
based learning, problem-based learning, or other learning methods that may effectively facilitate the fulfillment
of graduate learning targets (CPL). Each course may utilize one learning method or a combination of a number
of them contained in an instructional form. As such, learning may take these forms:
a. lectures;
b. meetings and tutorials;
c. seminars;
d. practicum, studio practice, workshop practice, field practice, work practice (training);
e. research, design, or development;
f. military training;
g. student exchange;
h. internship;
i. entrepreneurship; and/or
j. other forms of community service.
Learning in the form of research, design, or development is required to be added as a form of learning for
Diploma IV education programs, undergraduate programs, vocational programs, Master’s programs, specialist
programs, and doctoral program. Learning in the form of research, design, or development constitute student
activities under the supervision of lecturers in order to develop attitudes, knowledge, skills, and authentic
experience, and to improve the welfare of society and the competitiveness of the nation.
22
In contrast to learning by research, the form of learning by community service is only required to be added as a
form of learning for the Diploma IV, undergraduate, professional, and specialist educational programs. However,
as with learning by research, this learning by community service also constitutes student activities under the
supervision of lecturers in order to utilize science and technology to increase the welfare of society and to create
a more intelligent national living.
The forms of learning above may be conducted within the study program and outside the study program. The
forms of learning outside the study program comprises a learning process that may comprise:
a. Learning in another study program at the same higher education institution;
b. Learning in the same study program at a different higher education institution;
c. Learning in another study program at a different higher education institution; and
d. Learning in in a non- higher education institution.
However, at present, the learning process outside the study program is only conducted for undergraduate
programs and applied undergraduate programs outside the field of medicine, according to the policy of
Independent Learning of the Ministry of Education and Culture.
F. ASSESSMENT OF OUTCOME-BASED EDUCATION (OBE)

Assessment or evaluation is one or more processes to conduct identification, collection, and preparation of data
to evaluate the achievement of student learning outcomes (targets). Effective assessment usually utilizes direct
measurement, indirect measurement, quantitative measurement, and qualitative measurement that are
relevant to the outcomes (targets) to be measured. An appropriate method of sample collection may also be
utilized as part of the assessment process. Assessment also constitutes the systematic collection, review, and
utilization of information about the educational program that is conducted for the objective of improving
student learning and development.
In accordance with Minister of Education and Culture Regulation Number 03 of Year 2020, Brawijaya University
is required to carry out standards of learning assessment as the minimum criteria for the assessment of student
learning process and results in order to fulfill graduate learning targets. This assessment of student learning
process and results covers (a) assessment principles; (b) assessment techniques and instruments; (c) assessment
mechanism and procedures; (d) assessment execution; (e) assessment reporting; and (f) student passing.
Lecturers of UB are required to conduct assessment principles covering the educative, authentic, objective,
accountable, and transparent principles in an integrated manner. The educative principle represents
assessment that motivates students to be able to (a) improve learning planning and methods and (b) achieve
the graduate learning targets. The authentic principle represents assessment that is oriented to a continuous
learning process and learning results that reflect the capabilities of students while the learning process took
place. The objective principle represents assessment that is based on standards that are agreed upon between
lecturers and students and free from the influence of subjectivity from the evaluator and the subject. The
accountable principle represents assessment that is conducted according to procedures and criteria that are
clear, agreed upon at the start of coursework, and understood by students. The transparent principle represents
assessment for which the procedures and results may be accessed by all stakeholders.
The assessment techniques that are conducted by lecturers may involve observation, participation, performance,
written tests, verbal tests, and questionnaires. Assessment instruments comprise process assessment in the
form of rubrics and/or result assessment in the form of portfolios or design works. Attitude assessment may
utilize the observation evaluation technique. Assessments of knowledge mastery, general skills, and specific
skills are conducted by selecting one or a combination of various techniques and instruments applied by
lecturers. The final results of assessment is an integration between the various assessment techniques and
instruments that are utilized.
Assessment mechanisms are at the least composed of activities of (a) composing, delivering, and settling on the
stages, techniques, instruments, criteria, indicators, and weights of assessment between the evaluator and the
subject according to the lesson plan; (b) conduct the assessment process according to the stages, techniques,
instruments, criteria, indicators, and weights of assessment that contain assessment principles; (c) providing
23
feedback and an opportunity to discuss the results of assessment to students; and (d) documenting the
assessment of student learning process and results in an accountable and transparent manner.
The procedure of assessment by lecturers covers the stages of planning, providing assignments or problems,
observing performance, returning observation results, and providing final scores. The assessment procedure at
the stage of planning may be conducted through gradual assessment and/or re-assessment.
The execution of assessment is conducted according to the lesson plan as the measurement of Course Learning
Targets (CPMK), which is the aggregate of the Sub-Course Learning Targets (Sub-CPMK). The execution of
assessment may be conducted by (a) the teaching lecturer or the team of teaching lecturers; (b) the teaching
lecturer or the team of teaching lecturers with student participation; and/or (c) the teaching lecturer or the team
of teaching lecturers with participation of relevant stakeholders. Each of the course learning targets are then
aggregated by the study program to be utilized for measuring the achievement of Graduate Learning Targets
(CPL) that is reported to the Dean each year. However, in the case of assessment execution for the subspecialist,
doctoral, and applied doctoral programs, it is required to include an external evaluating lecturer from a different
higher education institution.
The right form of assessment must be based on the achievement indicators for the Course Learning Targets
(CPMK). Lecturers and students are expected to possess the same views toward the assessment model that is
conducted. As such, the process of equalizing perceptions toward the CPMK that are to be achieved must be
conducted since the beginning, with the expectation that once students have known about them, they can then
arrange the model of independent learning that is appropriate to their learning methods. The following table
provides examples of assessment forms and the forms of learning that may be assessed.

The composition of problems, assignments, and tests conducted by lecturers should consider the following
characteristics:
• Valid: verified for correctness
• Relevant: appropriate to competences, outcomes, or targets
• Specific: not biased
• Representative: supports elements of competence
• Balanced: appropriate to complexity of learning materials
• Open: appropriate to the RPS agreed upon by lecturers and students
G. PORTFOLIO DOCUMENT FOR OUTCOME-BASED EDUCATION (OBE)

The full execution of OBE clearly necessitates continuous achievement, and for this to be achieved, there needs
to be a mechanism for the delivery of regular feedback. The results of the feedback are utilized by the lecturer
to evaluate the course that is explained in the creation of the course portfolio.
This course portfolio is created by the teacher teaching a course at the end of each current semester. This
portfolio becomes a tool to see how far mana the achievement of CPMK had occurred for the students of the
course, which will later on will also be aggregated at the study program level to see how far the CPL of the study
program have been achieved. This assessment of achievement becomes the evaluation material for the study
program for the necessary corrective actions.
The format of the course portfolio consists of explanations of:
1. Introduction and course objectives
2. Descriptions of courses
3. Utilized learning methods
4. Learning media
5. Learning evaluation with the assessment tools
6. Statistics that explain course conditions
7. Student feedback
8. A brief syllabus of the course
9. Semester Lesson Plan
10. Reflections and solutions to problems that are faced
11. Necessary attachments
This learning evaluation that occurs continuously over the one-semester course period is necessary to find out
the (1) level of appropriateness of course materials with the RPS, (2) participation levels of lecturers and students,
(3) percentage distribution of scores, (4) achievement of the quality target for the passing rate of the course,
and (5) evaluation per study, if necessary, to explain the learning mechanisms that occur.
H. LEARNING INNOVATION IN OUTCOME-BASED EDUCATION (OBE)

The characteristics of the learning process created by a lecturer must be able to fulfill a number of characteristics,
which are the interactive, holistic, integrative, scientific, contextual, thematic, effective, collaborative, and
student-centered characteristics. In this case, the lecturer must be able to prepare oneself and the materials to
be able to realize these characteristics in the learning process.
25
UB lecturers are obliged to utilize the learning method that may be selected for the execution of learning in
courses as explained in section 4.8. The selected method requires a lecturer to be able to create innovations for
which the benefits will later be felt by students. The needs of learning innovation by lecturers require supporting
facilities that will be prepared by the faculty and department.
The characteristics of the utilized learning process and learning method should be dynamic and reflected in the
portfolio of the course after being executed, and thus it cannot be statically determined because it indeed must
follow the developments that occur during learning. Therefore, innovation must be continuously developed.
I. QUALITY ASSURANCE FOR OUTCOME-BASED EDUCATION (OBE)

The Internal Quality Assurance System (SPMI) is an autonomous systemic activity for higher education quality
assurance by each individual institution to control and improve the organization of higher education in a planned
and continuous manner. The objective of quality assurance is to maintain and improve continuously the quality
of higher education, which is executed internally to realize the vision and mission of the institution, as well as to
fulfill the needs of stakeholders through the organization of the Three Pillars of Higher Education. SPMI becomes
an important factor in the progress toward high-quality higher education institutions. This process may be
conducted internally by the respective institutions, and controlled and audited by accreditation activities that
are carried out by the National Accreditation Agency for Higher Education (BAN-PT) or other external institutions.
In this way, the objectivity of assessment toward the continuous maintenance and improvement of academic
quality in a higher education institution may be realized.
UB has implemented quality assurance since the formation of the Center for Quality Assurance in 2005, and
since the beginning has applied the cycle of quality assurance that is called OSDAT (Figure 3.2). For the execution
of the SPMI, UB has applied the measures of the “quality assurance cycle” of OSDAT, as an abbreviation of the
following:
1. Organization (O) – Structuring of quality assurance
2. System (S) – Composition of policies and documents as standards, manuals, and forms for SPMI
3. Do (D) – Dissemination and usage as work reference
4. Audit (A) – Review of internal quality
5. Tweaking (T) – Follow-up and improvement
However, with the existence of Minister of Research, Technology, and Higher Education Regulation Number 62
of Year 2016 on the System of Quality Assurance for Higher Education, UB changed the quality assurance cycle
and now follows a cycle consisting of 5 stages (Establishment, Execution, Evaluation, Enrichment, and
Enhancement) that can be summarized as the 5E Cycle (Figure 3.3). Based on the Guidelines for the Internal
Quality Assurance System issued by the Ministry of Research, Technology, and Higher Education, the 5E cycle is
composed of:
1. Establishment, as the activity of finalizing the standards set by a higher education institution.
2. Execution, as the activity that is conducted for the fulfillment of the standards.
3. Evaluation, as the activity of comparing the results of the execution to the standards that had been
established.
4. Enrichment, as the activity of analyzing the causes of achievement failure and/or deviations in the
execution for the standards in order to make corrections or revisions.
5. Enhancement, as the activity of improving and elevating the standards to be higher compared to the
standards that had been established.

Quality assurance for the OBE curriculum has the true objective to conduct monitoring in the manner of
Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI), as can be seen in Figure 3.4. Each study program is formed by
establishing its vision and mission, which then becomes the basis in establishing the Study Program Educational
Objectives (TPP), and then becomes the foundation for establishing the Graduate Learning Targets (CPL) that
will be further implemented in detail in the Course Learning Targets (CPMK). As such, each study program di UB
27
must establish Course Learning Targets (CPMK) each semester, which are then evaluated and analyzed, and then
revised in order to refine the CPMK. Next, the study program also does the same for the Graduate Learning
Targets (CPL) based on the survey results of a tracer study, which is then followed by evaluation, analysis, and
revisions to refine the CPL. Then, each study program also at least once every 4 years conducts evaluation,
analysis, and revisions to refine the Study Program Educational Objectives (TPP). This is usually after conducting
a graduate tracer study 5-10 years after graduating from the study program.

CHAPTER IV
GUIDELINES FOR ONLINE LEARNING
A. INTRODUCTION
In online learning, there are two models of interaction between lecturers and students based on the
time of the learning process, which are synchronous learning and asynchronous learning. In synchronous
learning, lecturers and students conduct the learning process at the same time, and they are directly involved in
learning and discussions. In asynchronous learning, lecturers and students conduct the learning process at
different times, and they are indirectly involved in learning and discussions. Asynchronous learning provides
advantages such as comfort, flexibility, more interactions, and freedom to continue personal and professional
life responsibilities.
These two models of learning may be utilized in the entirety of learning activities. In conditions of
emergency, it is expected that lecturers do not obligate synchronous learning for all interactions because of the
limited Internet facilities that students may possess.
B. LEARNING MECHANISM
1. Mechanism of Synchronous Learning
a. Lecturers upload course materials to the Learning Management System (LMS) facilities of the Faculty
LMS, Google Classroom, and social media.
b. Lecturers give live online lectures through the broadcast facilities of applications such as Zoom, Google
Meet, Instagram (Live), and YouTube (Live Video).
c. Students participate in lectures by live streaming.
d. Students may discuss and ask questions to the lecturer through the conference or chatting features of
the applications.
e. Lecturers may give out assignments, quizzes, or tests through the LMS.
2. Mechanism of Asynchronous Learning

a. Lecturers upload course materials to the Learning Management System (LMS) facilities of the Faculty
LMS, Google Classroom, and social media.
b. Lecturers record videos of online lecture materials with usage of video recording tools or applications
such as cellphone camera, Filmora (PC), and OBS Studio (PC).
c. Lecturers upload the recorded lecture videos to the LMS or YouTube.
d. Students participate in lectures through the LMS or YouTube.
e. Students may discuss and ask questions to the lecturer through e-mail or social media.
f. Lecturers may give out assignments, quizzes, or tests through the LMS or social media.
C. DURATION AND SEMESTER LESSON PLANS (RPS)

1. Length of Learning
Interactions of synchronous learning through videoconference with usage of Google Meet, Zoom, or similar
applications very much require the availability of adequate Internet connectivity. Additionally, videoconferences
also require much greater internet quotas compared to text-based interactions (online discussions or chatting).
In relation to the above, for synchronous interactions with videoconferences, the learning time needs to be
limited and not be conducted with a long duration, in order to save Internet quotas further. If videoconferences
are required, they may be conducted for enrichment of materials that cannot be explained by way of textual
materials, but still with a duration that is not very long.
Synchronous interactions should be conducted by the predetermined course schedules in order to not conflict
with other courses. Videoconferences may be utilized in limited conditions, such as for activities of result
seminars, undergraduate exams, and so on.
2. Semester Lesson Plans (RPS)
30
It is very much realized that in conditions of emergency, both lecturers and students possess difficulties in online
learning, particularly in achieving the learning objectives. Yet within the remaining time for learning activities,
with all the facilities that are possessed by UB, it is hoped that they will support the achievement of learning
objectives. Needs of instructional materials in online learning must be in accordance with the Semester Lesson
Plan (RPS) that had been composed at the start of the course.
The RPS for a course becomes the primary reference in the creation of instructional materials in online learning
as with the face-to-face activities that have always been conducted. In conditions of emergency, materials that
lecturers have possessed may be uploaded to the LMS present at UB (such as VLM UB, Google Classroom, Faculty
LMS, and so on) and/or e-mailed to students.
These instructional materials will be able to be accessed by students anytime and anywhere. It is expected that
the instructional materials will be able to trigger the motivation of students to learn independently and to discuss
learning with lecturers whether synchronously or asynchronously.
D. ETHICS OF ONLINE LEARNING

1. Ethics of Communication of Online Learning
a. Honesty: continuous effort by the community of scholars to be truthful in all academic communication.
b. Integrity: continuous effort by the community of scholars to fulfill promises in agreements; to act
sincerely; and to maintain consistency of thoughts and action.
c. Emphasis on objectivity in communication: effort to avoid bias in all academic communication.
d. Carefulness: avoidance of mistakes, errors, and neglect, being thorough and critical in checking the
work of oneself and others.
e. Openness: being open in the sharing of information, ideas, tools, and resources, as well as toward
criticism and new ideas.
f. Appreciation of intellectual property: respect of patents, copyrights, and other forms of intellectual
property, and recognition of academic information.
g. Confidentiality: protective of secrets in communication, such as of learning materials that are sent for
the learning process.
h. Publication responsibility: responsibility of the community of scholars for the competence they possess,
and to avoid publications that are not beneficial and are duplicated, in order to advance education.
i. Mentoring responsibility: assistance to educate, guide, and provide suggestions to learners, to
encourage learners in order to allow them to make independent decisions.
j. Mutual respect: respect and fair treatment for others in the community of scholars.
k. Problem solving: giving solutions when problems occur.
l. Social responsibility: effort to promote social interests in good education and to prevent the existence

of a research. Theses of Master’s Programs in the environment of the Faculty possess a study load of 12-14
credits and may be made into several sub-theses depending on the needs of the study program.
A thesis is composed of the following several components:
1) Thesis research proposal
2) Thesis research execution
3) Thesis research results seminar
4) Article publication in an academic journal
5) Thesis examination
In working on a thesis, a student is led by a Thesis Supervising Team composed of 2 supervisors, as the Team
Head (First Supervisor) and Team Member (Second Supervisor).
The following are the requirements and conditions for thesis supervisors:
1) The first supervisor must be a permanent lecturer from the study program of the student, and
possesses doctoral qualifications relevant to the field of research of the student.
2) The second supervisor must possess doctoral qualifications relevant to the field of research of the
student and may come from other study programs, faculties, or higher education institutions.
35
3) A professional certified to a profession relevant to the study program and possesses qualification
equivalent to level 9 of the KKNI may be named as the second supervisor. In this case, the person must
possess doctoral qualifications.
The primary task of the supervising team is to aid a student in completing the thesis, including:
1) Providing guidance and suggestions to the student in composing the thesis research proposal.
2) Conducting supervision for the execution of the thesis research and for the process of data analysis and
its interpretation, writing of the thesis, and writing of the article for scientific publication, as well as
being responsible toward the adequate quality of the thesis.
3) Being responsible for processes of activities and study completion time of the student according to the

2) The student suggests 2 lecturers, of which at least one must be from the study program of the student.
3) Based on the data in point (1), the Chief of the Study Program examines, provides consideration, and
establishes the supervising team, before passing on the names for the supervising team that have been
established to the Dean of the Faculty to obtain a Decree.
4) Replacement of the first and/or second supervisor after the issuance of the Dean Decree is possible
only if either member of the supervising team becomes permanently unavailable or in the event that
an issue causes the thesis supervising process to not proceed. Changes to the supervising team are
based on objective reasons, as:
a) changes in the topic/title/substance of the thesis,
b) difficulty of communication and consultation between student and supervisor,
c) violations of the code of ethics/morals or harassment/intimidation, and
d) supervisors obtaining new positions/assignments that do not allow the thesis supervisory
process to be conducted well.
Requests of changes to the supervising team are submitted by a student to the Chief of the Study
Program and established by a Decree of the Dean of the Faculty according to the procedure for
establishing the supervising team.
1) Thesis Proposal Examination

The thesis proposal is a plan for research activities that is composed by a student for the Master’s thesis.
In composing the thesis proposal, the student is guided by the supervising team. The student must be able
to explain the thesis proposal logically and systematically, and defend it according to applicable scientific
principles in a proposal examination that is conducted openly by the Head of the Supervising Team. The
examining team for the thesis proposal is made up of 4 lecturers composed of the supervising team (2
people) and lecturers other than the supervising team (2 people), which is established by a Dean Decree
based on the suggestion of the Chief of the Study Program. The proposal examination may be conducted
if it is attended by at least 3 out of the 4 members of the examining team (the 2 non-supervising
examiners must be present). In the case that the first supervisor is unavailable for the proposal
examination, the second supervisor must be delegated to represent the first supervisor. If one of the
examiners becomes unavailable on the day of the examination, the examination must be rescheduled. The
proposal examination cannot be conducted outside its forum. Examination scores are given by all present
members of the examining team. The final score of the thesis proposal examination is the average score
from all examiners. The passing requirement for the thesis proposal is an average grade of at least B.
2) Thesis Research and Writing Execution
After the thesis proposal has been approved, a student must at once conduct the research activities as has
been planned in the proposal. The research activities may be conducted in laboratories in the UB
environment and/or outside of UB, on the field, and/or other places, while still within the guidance and
supervision from the supervising team. The output of research activities is for a student to possess proper
data to be utilized in composing the thesis. Evaluation of the thesis research execution is conducted by the
supervising team (first and second supervisor) according to applicable regulations, including filling out the
Research Record (Consultation Record/Supervision Record) and filling out the research logbook.
36
3) Thesis Research Results Seminar
The requirements for the thesis research results seminar are a TOEFL score ≥ 475 issued by ITP or UB (LDC-
FEB, FIB, and Inbis) and a TPA OTO BAPPENAS score of at least 450.
The thesis research results seminar has the objective to measure or evaluate whether the research
conducted by a student is appropriate to be written or composed as a Master’s Program thesis. The thesis
research results seminar is conducted in front of the examining team for the thesis research results seminar
in an open setting. The composition of the examining team for the thesis research results seminar is the
same as for the examining team for the thesis proposal. The thesis research results seminar may be
conducted if it is attended by at least 3 out of the 4 members of the examining team (the 2 non-
supervising examiners must be present). If one of the examiners becomes unavailable on the day of the
seminar, the seminar must be rescheduled. The thesis research results seminar cannot be conducted
outside its forum. Scores are given by all present members of the examining team. The final score of the
thesis research results seminar is the average score from all examiners. The evaluation results are utilized
to decide whether or not the student may proceed with the thesis examination. The passing requirement
for the thesis research results seminar is an average grade of at least B for the student.
4) Thesis Examination
The thesis examination is the final examination of a Master’s Program student in the environment of the
Faculty, and is conducted in a closed setting. In the thesis examination, the student must be able to explain
the thesis logically and systematically, and defend it according to applicable scientific principles. The
examining team for the thesis examination is made up of 4 lecturers, with the same composition as for the
examining team for the thesis proposal and the examining team for the thesis research results seminar.
The thesis examination may be conducted if it is attended by at least 3 out of the 4 members of the
examining team (the 2 non-supervising examiners must be present), and is led by the first supervisor as
the head of the examining team. In the case that the first supervisor is unavailable for the thesis
examination, the second supervisor must be delegated to represent the first supervisor and act as the head
of the examining team. If one of the examiners becomes unavailable on the day of the examination, the
examination must be rescheduled. The thesis examination cannot be conducted outside its forum. If a
member of the examining team (outside the examining team) becomes unavailable, the Chief of the Study
Program designates a substitute lecturer possessing the same field of expertise as the thesis topic of the
student. Evaluation of the thesis examination is conducted by the examining team for the thesis
examination. Examination scores are given by all present members of the examining team. The final score
of the thesis examination is the average score from all examiners. The passing requirement for the thesis
examination is an average grade of at least B. If a lower grade is obtained, the student must repeat the
examination and is given 1 chance to do so. If the student does not pass again, the student is given a special
assignment (by agreement of the supervising team) to revise the thesis, or be declared to have failed the
studies.
5) Scientific Publication
Based on Brawijaya University Rector Regulation Number 52 of Year 2018 Article 3 Paragraph 1 on Scientific
Publications, these (published or accepted) constitute a requirement of students of Master’s Programs
for the thesis examination to be able to be conducted. Students are required to possess at least 1 scientific

The outline of curriculum execution of Doctoral Programs in the environment of the Faculty is
summarized below:
Courses and Special Assignments
For students who possess a different field (not in-line), all matriculation courses must be taken in
semester 1, and thus the core courses of the doctoral program can only then be taken starting in
semester 2. For students who possess the same field (in-line), the core courses of the doctoral program
can be immediately taken in semester 1. The core courses of the doctoral program are required courses
of the study program and courses supporting the dissertation, for which the kinds and credit loads are
determined by each study program. Course activities in the doctoral program emphasize more on the
system of presenting and reviewing the discussion materials/topic for the course. Evaluation of the
courses is conducted by the lecturer or team of lecturers teaching the specific courses. The passing
requirement for each course is a grade of at least B. In addition to structured courses, doctoral study
programs in the environment of the Faculty may implement the provision of special assignments to
students. The form, requirements, and evaluation of the special assignments are left up to each study
program, while still following applicable principles and regulations.
42
Qualification Examination
The qualification examination is conducted to evaluate the academic capabilities of a student of a
doctoral program as a requirement for the dissertation proposal examination before conducting the
research activities for the dissertation. The requirement for taking the qualification examination is that
the student must have passed all courses that are provided with at least a grade of B. The materials
and components of evaluation for the qualification examination cover:
a) Comprehensive mastery of materials in the courses that have been taken in the curriculum,
both of theory and application in the field of research that becomes the study focus.
b) Reasoning capabilities, including capabilities to create abstractions, systematizations, and
formulations of ideas.
The passing requirement for the qualification examination is for the student to obtain a grade of at
least B from each examining lecturer. The methodology of the qualification examination is explained in
its own section.
Dissertation
A dissertation is the academic written work of the results of the study and/or in-depth research of a
student that is conducted independently and contains new contributions for the development of
science or the discovery of new answers for problems of science that is composed by the doctoral
candidate with the supervision of the Supervising Team (promotor and co-promotor). The supervising
process for the dissertation officially begins after the student has been declared to pass the
qualification examination. A student who has passed the qualification examination is required to
process the establishment of the supervising team immediately, which is composed of 1 promotor and
2 co-promotors. The establishment of the supervising team is conducted by the Dean of the Faculty by
suggestion of the Chief of the Study Program. After the student obtains a supervising team, the student
is required to consult with the supervisors for each academic activity that will be conducted.
Fundamentally, a dissertation may be evaluated based on:
a) Originality and contributions toward the field of discipline and/or value of application.
b) State-of-the-art methodologies and research approaches, depth of reasoning, and
fundamental mastery of theory.
c) Systematics of ideas and precision of problem formulation, discussion of research results, and
conclusion.
Activities for the dissertation cover the various details as stated in Table 6.2 point (c), and the study
program has the obligation of establishing the individual credit load of each of the components. Details
regarding the dissertation is explained in its own section.
3) Unstructured Curriculum
In addition to the structured curriculum, students of doctoral programs in the environment of the
Faculty are required to make reviews of journals according to the field of study or research of their
dissertations, of at least 50 titles (or as established by the Study Program). Students are required to
present their review results in their research group, which is attended and coordinated by the promotor
or the co-promotor. The objective of this activity is for students to find out the current (state-of-the-
art) scientific developments in their fields of research, and to be able to position themselves in research
activities that are oriented to the future. The technical execution is regulated by each Chief of the Study
Program.
D. Execution of the Qualification Examination

A student of the Doctoral Program has the right to take the qualification examination after having passed all the
courses with a Cumulative GPA ≥ 3.00 and no grade less than a B. The qualification examination is conducted in
speaking and writing to evaluate the academic capabilities of a student in conducting the research process for
the dissertation. The qualification examination is scheduled to be conducted at the start of semester 2 or another
time determined by the Chief of the Study program with consideration of the preparedness of the student. The
43
qualification examination is taken by all students who meet the conditions. The qualification examination is
conducted in a closed setting. The document format for the qualification examination depends on the Study
Program.
The following are the methods for the qualification examination:
1) The qualification examination is conducted by 3 lecturers of the Study Program who are the candidate
supervisors for the student. The examining lecturers are designated by the Chief of the Study Program
through a coordination meeting of lecturers of the Study Program.
2) The primary supervisor candidate (promotor candidate) acts as the head of the examining team.
3) Each of the designated examining lecturers individually informs the student about the materials to be
examined.
4) The examination is conducted at a predetermined (prescheduled) time and place.
5) The examining lecturers provide their evaluations for the examination in a form that has been
prepared by the Doctoral Program in the environment of the Faculty.
The following are the conditions for the qualification examination:
1) The student is declared to pass the qualification examination if the student obtains a grade of at least
a B from each examining lecturer.
2) If the student does not pass the qualification examination, the student is given a chance to repeat the
qualification examination. The repeat qualification examination is conducted at least one month after
the first qualification examination.
3) If the student still does not pass the repeat qualification examination, the student is declared to have
failed the studies for the Doctoral Program in the environment of the Faculty.
4) The Chief of the Study Program conducts a coordination meeting with all qualification examination
lecturers (of all students) in which they then provide summaries and conclusions of the research results
of each student.
E. Dissertation Supervising Team

The supervising process for the dissertation officially begins after the student has been declared to pass the
qualification examination. To fulfill the obligations of the dissertation, a student is led by a supervising team. The
supervising team is composed of 1 promotor and 2 co-promotors. The establishment of the supervising team is
conducted by the Dean of the Faculty by suggestion of the Chief of the Study Program. The primary task of the
supervising team is to aid a student in completing the dissertation, which involves:
1) Providing guidance and suggestions to the student in the process of composing suggestions for
dissertation research.

team becomes permanently unavailable or in the event that an issue causes the dissertation supervising
process to not proceed. Changes to the supervising team are based on objective reasons, as:
a) changes in the topic/title/substance of the dissertation,
b) difficulty of communication and consultation between student and supervisor,
c) violations of the code of ethics/morals or harassment/intimidation, and
d) supervisors obtaining new positions/assignments that do not allow the dissertation
supervisory process to be conducted well.
7) Requests of changes to the supervising team are submitted by a student to the Chief of the Study
Program and established by a Decree of the Dean of the Faculty according to the procedure for
establishing the supervising team.
F. Dissertation Proposal Examination

After having been declared to pass the qualification examination and obtaining a supervising team, a student
may formally execute the activities of the dissertation. The activities of the dissertation initially begin with the
composition of the dissertation proposal. The dissertation proposal is a written work of the student that contains
the planned research activities as the final assignment for taking part in studies in a Doctoral Program. In
composing the dissertation proposal, the student must consult with all of the supervising team. The dissertation
research proposal is composed by following the writing guidelines that have been established by the Faculty
according to the Study Program. The dissertation proposal examination is conducted in an open setting.

declared to not pass the first dissertation proposal examination. If the student still does not pass the
repeat examination, the student is required to change the research title and may request changes of
the promotor or co-promotor, and starts the process of composing the dissertation proposal from the
beginning.
G. Dissertation Research Execution

After the dissertation proposal has been approved, a student must at once conduct the research activities as has
been planned in the proposal. The research activities may be conducted in laboratories in the environment of
UB and/or outside of UB, on the field, and/or other places, while still within the guidance and supervision from
the supervising team. A student is require to utilize a logbook to document the process or activities of the
research as well as to facilitate communication with the supervising team.
The activity of research monitoring and evaluation is required to be conducted by the supervising committee of
a student who has passed the proposal examination. This activity is conducted each semester and has the
objective to observe the research progress of the student. This activity is conducted in the form of a progress
report seminar that is attended by the supervising team and the monitoring and evaluation team (Chief of the
Study Program or a representative, and one lecturer designated by the Chief). This activity does not result in an
evaluation; rather, it is one of the facilities to monitor student research as well as to prevent plagiarism.
Monitoring and evaluation of student research by the supervising committee is conducted at least 2 times during
the period of the research, and is supplemented by a report of the activity.
The output of research activities is for a student to possess proper research data for publication in international
scientific seminars and/or published in a reputable international journal, and to be utilized in composing the
dissertation. Evaluation of the dissertation research execution is conducted by the supervising team (promotor
and co-promotor) according to applicable regulations, including filling out the Research Record (Consultation
Record/Supervision Record) and filling out the research logbook.
H. Scientific Publication in an International Seminar

After a student possesses proper research data from the research activities, the student may publish the
research results in an international seminar forum. A student who is about to bring the results of the research
to a seminar is required to consult with the promotor team regarding the materials for the seminar paper and
other matters related to the seminar. The following are the obligated conditions for an international seminar for

Enrollment of new students in the graduate programs (Master’s and doctoral) is conducted in the odd semester
and the even semester. Registration for the odd semester takes place from the beginning of March to the end
of July, while for the odd semester takes place from September to December. The selection process of new
students for the Master’s programs and doctoral programs is conducted with these stages: (1) administrative or
form selection, (2) written test, and (3) interviews. From the results of the selection, student candidates who
are lacking in academic requirements are required to participate in an adjustment or matriculation program.
The execution of the short semester or matriculation is organized by the respective study program.
New student enrollment for the Master’s Programs and Doctoral Programs in the environment of the Faculty is
conducted with consideration of the following matters:
1) Fulfillment of academic requirements.
2) Fulfillment of administrative requirements.
3) Fulfillment of study program carrying capacity.
The following is the procedure for new student registration for the Master’s Programs and Doctoral Programs in
the environment of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences:
1) An applicant fills out an online form provided at the web address mipa.ub.ac.id after obtaining the
password.
2) The filled-out form is then printed (downloaded) in order to be sent directly (by post) to the address of
the Master’s Programs and Doctoral Programs of the Faculty at:

registration by sending a registered letter, telegram, and telex with notice of proof of delivery.
C. Requirements for Living In

Students of master’s programs and doctoral programs in the environment of the Faculty are required to be
present at UB to participate in course activities for at least 2 semesters with a full load in the first year of courses.
After arriving at the stage of research for and composition of the thesis or dissertation, students are allowed to
conduct research and composition inside or outside UB. For students of doctoral programs, after the research is
completed, students are required to be present at UB for at least 6 months to conduct the results seminar,
dissertation content appropriateness examination, and dissertation final examination. Therefore, the
requirements for living in for students of doctoral study program is at least 3 semesters with a full load.
D. Study Planning for Students

Study planning for a student in a current semester is conducted by filling out the Course Selection (Kartu Rencana
Studi, KRS), or Course Change (Kartu Perubahan Rencana Studi, KPRS) forms provided by the Academic Sub-
Division of the Master’s Programs and Doctoral Programs of the Faculty, and these may be obtained by showing
an applicable Student Card for the current semester.
1) Determining the Semester Study Plan
Determining the semester study plan is conducted with the guidance of the Academic Supervisor that has
been assigned. For new students, the study plan is required to take the study load that has been established
by the study program. Determining the study plan for the next semester is then conducted based on the
achievements attained by a student in the previous semester. The size of the study load that may be taken
in the next semester is determined by the GPA with approval of the Academic Supervisor. The student then
fills out course selections online according to the schedule that has been established. Next, the printout
for course selections is distributed according to applicable conditions.
2) Changing the Study Plan
Changing the study plan is the dropping of a selected course and adding another course within the same
semester. Changing the study plan is conducted by filling out the Course Change form that is then approved
by the Academic Supervisor and submitted to the Academic Sub-Division of the Master’s Programs and
Doctoral Programs of the Faculty by no later than one week after courses start.
3) Dropping Courses in a Current Semester
The dropping of courses must be with the approval of the Academic Supervisor and be submitted to the
Academic Sub-Division of the Master’s Programs and Doctoral Programs of the Faculty by no later than
two weeks after courses start.
4) Study Results
The results of the study comprise the grades obtained for all the courses programmed into the course
selection and included in the Report Card (Kartu Hasil Studi, KHS).
E. Execution of Courses and Examinations

1) Courses
Students are required to participate in courses, practicum, and other academic activities in accordance
with the established study plan in an ordered and regular manner according to applicable conditions. The
schedule of courses and practice is itself organized by the Academic Sub-Division of the Master’s Programs
54
and Doctoral Programs of the Faculty. The overall attendance of a student in (face-to-face) meetings of
courses and practicum becomes the consideration in determining whether or not a student is permitted
to take the mid-/end-of-semester examinations.
2) Mid-/End-of-Semester Examinations
a) Mid-/End-of-Semester Examinations are only one of the components in determining the final grade of
a course, in addition to other components such as quizzes, structured assignments, seminars, and
others. Mid-/End-of-Semester Examinations organized by lecturers may be in the form of written,
spoken, or presentation exams.
b) Students are permitted to take the examinations if their overall attendance is at least 80%. If the
number of conducted (face-to-face) meetings of a course by a lecturer before the mid-semester
examination is less than six times, students are not evaluated for their attendance and all students are
permitted to take the mid-semester examinations. Similarly for the end-of-semester examinations,
student attendance evaluation is conducted if the number of (face-to-face) meetings of a course
reaches 12 or more times. If the number of (face-to-face) meetings is less than 12 times, all students
are permitted to take the end-of-semester examinations.
c) The results of attendance evaluation are announced before an examination is conducted. Notices from
a doctor or other notices that are utilized to indicate the absence for a course must be given to the
respective lecturer or to the Academic Sub-Division of the Master’s Programs and Doctoral Programs
of the Faculty no later than the course meeting of the following week, and after that time, the student
is considered absent for the course.
d) Mid-/End-of-Semester Examinations are in principle conducted in a scheduled manner by the Academic
Sub-Division of the Master’s Programs and Doctoral Programs of the Faculty. However, in certain
conditions, lecturers of courses may conduct examinations outside the established schedule, with
agreement with students and the Chief of the Study Program.
e) Lecturers are required to submit examination problems (at the least their outlines) to the examination
committee no later than three days before the course examination is to be conducted for the purpose
of academic documentation and duplication (if necessary).
f) The examination committee is required to maintain the confidentiality of examination problems.
g) Students who are marked down for their attendance are not allowed to take the examinations.
Students who cannot attend an examination due to illness or other matters that may be justifiable are
required to submit valid notices from a doctor or other notices to the Academic Sub-Division of the
Master’s Programs and Doctoral Programs of the Faculty no later than three days after the absence for
the examination. Notices from a doctor or other notices that are submitted after the established time
are declared inapplicable and the student is considered to be absent for the course examination.
F. Administration of Final Course Grades

1) The announcement of final grades of courses is conducted online by the teaching lecturers, and the
printouts are given to the Academic Sub-Division of the Master’s Programs and Doctoral Programs of
the Faculty at the established deadline by the Academic Sub-Division of the Master’s Programs and
Doctoral Programs of the Faculty.
2) The evaluation of the academic capabilities of a student for each course is declared with a final grade
that is noted in the Report Card of the respective student.
3) The final grades of all courses that are obtained by a student in one semester are detailed in full in the
Report Card. The courses and each of their grades in the Report Card correspond to the courses present
in the Course Selection along with added and dropped courses (if any).
G. Leave of Absence from Studies

1) A student of the Master’s Programs and Doctoral Programs of the Faculty may request a (temporary)
leave of absence after the student has been recorded to be an active student of Brawijaya University
for 2 semesters.
2) The request for a leave of absence must obtain approval from the Rector of Brawijaya University.
3) A student is only permitted to request a leave of absence at most 2 times and cumulatively no longer
than 2 semesters.
55
4) The time of the leave of absence is not factored into the limit of study length. If the leave of absence is
caused by academic sanctions or other punishments imposed by the university or other government
institutions, the time of the leave of absence is factored into the limit of study length.
5) The request for a leave of absence is made online through the Student Information System.
H. Student Transfers

CHAPTER X
MASTER’S STUDY PROGRAM OF PHYSICS
A. Identity of the Study Program

Name of the Study Program : Master of Physics
Organization Permit : Directorate-General of Higher Education Decree
No. 1150/D/T/09
Accreditation Status : A, applies until 19 December 2022
Decree Number 4899/SK/BAN-PT/Akred/M/XII/2017
B. Introduction
In the present era of globalization and information technology, increasing the competence and
professionalism of physicists is a requirement that needs to be fulfilled, particularly to anticipate the various
changes that occur within the country or internationally. The role of physicists have developed along with
the rapid and broad development of the fields of studies of physics, such as techniques of precise
measurement, material technologies, micro-scale appliances, and new methods in geophysics, medical
physics, biophysics, and similar others. Development and execution of continued physics education is very
much necessary for the objective of increasing the competence and professionalism of physicists to be in
accordance with the demands of the development of science and technology of physics in society, without
ignoring the basic knowledge of physics and its prospect of developments in the future.
The Master’s Study Program of Physics of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences of
Brawijaya University is the program of continuance from the Undergraduate Program of Physics or other
undergraduate programs that possess relationships with the field of physics, with in-depth studies of certain
fields of expertise. The legal basis for the organization of the Master’s Study Program of Physics of UB is
Directorate-General of Higher Education Decree No. 1150/D/T/09 on the date 15 July 2009, on the
Organization Permit for the Master’s Study Program of Physics of UB. Based on BAN-PT Decree No.
006/SK/BAN-PT/Ak-X/M/I/2013 on the date of 4 January 2013, the Study Program obtained an accreditation
of A applicable up to 4 January 2018, and on 19 December 2017 the Study Program successfully maintained
its accreditation grade of A, applicable up to 19 December 2022.
At present, the Master’s Study Program offers four concentrations or specific studies, which are
Material Physics, Geophysics, Instrumentation Physics, and Medical Physics & Biophysics. The Material
Physics Concentration covers the further in-depth study of aspects of materials seen from the perspective
of physics. This concentration involves the discussion of the kinds and properties of materials, methods of
analysis and characterization of materials, and the science and technology to design and engineer new
functional materials with greater utility. The Geophysics Concentration focuses its discussions on reliable
earth science with the objective of assisting in the discovery of even more unearthed natural resources. The
knowledge of geophysics is also required to provide a scientific basis in order that existing natural resources,
particularly those in Indonesia, are not explored and exploited excessively and irresponsibly. The
Instrumentation Physics Concentration covers the study of the technologies of sensors, transducers,
methods and systems of measurement, and designs of modern instrumentation systems. Studies in the field
of Instrumentation provides a solution for the availability of measuring systems and instrumentation
systems as a whole. Both of these are currently extremely vital for the continuity of development of science
and technology and its products that consist of tools as systems. The Medical Physics & Biophysics
Concentration is focused on the understanding and application of physics in the fields of medicine,
biochemistry, and the environment. This field of study has the role of bridging the relationship between
physics and the sciences of biomedicine, agrocomplexes, and the environment. Biophysics, medical physics,
radiotherapy physics, radiation protection, and radiobiology are examples of topics that are discussed in
this field of study.

F. Curriculum
The Doctoral Study Program of Physics of the Faculty is fundamentally an education program that is oriented
to research. However, the execution of good research certainly requires mastery of theories related to the
theme of the research to be conducted. As such, the Study Program requires its students to take several courses
in their studies. The courses are to provide support for the research, and thus the offered courses comprise
dissertation-supporting courses.
Credit Loads and Study Lengths of the Doctoral Study Program of Physics of the Faculty
a) Students whose Master’s (S2) educational backgrounds are of the same or similar field possess a credit load
of 42-45 credits, comprised of required courses (3 credits), dissertation-supporting courses (9-12 credits),
and the dissertation (30 credits), which are scheduled to be taken within a time of 6 semesters and may
be completed in less than 6 semesters and no more than 14 semesters.
b) Students whose Master’s (S2) educational backgrounds are of a different field possess the same credit load
as point (a) with the addition of deficiency or matriculation courses (9-12 credits), which are scheduled to
be taken within a time of 7 semesters and may be completed in less than 7 semesters and no more than
14 semesters.
In the case of a matriculation, the students are required to take several courses of basic knowledge that are
considered to be still lacking as a prerequisite for taking the Doctoral Study Program of Physics of the Faculty.
The credit load and kinds of matriculation courses are determined by the Selection Team of the Doctoral Study
Program of Physics of the Faculty. The matriculation is conducted in the first semester. The final evaluation of
the matriculation is that students are declared to pass or fail. Students who fail will be given a make-up
opportunity.
