dosen merupakan salah satu tenaga pendidik, dimana tugas utama seorang dosen harus dapat memenuhi Tri Darma Perguruan Tinggi sesuai dengan peraturan Pemerintah Republik Indonesia nomor 37 tahun 2009 yaitu melaksanakan pembelajaran dengan beban kerja mengajar paling sedikit sepadan dengan 12 SKS SWMP (Setara Wajib Mengajar Penuh) dan paling banyak 16 SKS SWMP, selain mengajar dosen juga harus melaksanakan penelitian, dan pengabdian kepada masyarakat pada setiap semester. Pelaksanaan tugas utama dosen ini dilaporkan setiap semester dan dimonitoring untuk dievaluasi oleh pimpinan. Selama ini laporan beban kerja dosen diisikan secara offline yang menyebabkan tertundanya pengumpulan data karena alur pengumpulan data yang panjang dan berjenjang. Disamping itu terjadinya kesulitan dalam proses monitoring beban kerja setiap dosen untuk dievaluasi oleh pimpinan. Dengan melihat dari banyaknya masalah yang timbul sehingga mengakibatkan pelaporan beban kerja dosen tidak dapat berjalan dengan baik maka melalui penelitian ini dilakukanlah analisis permasalahan yang timbul berkitan dengan pelaporan beban kerja dosen dari sistem lama yang bersifat manual dibandingkan dengan sistem baru secara online menggunakan framework PIECES, selanjutnya berdasarkan analisis tersebut dirancang suatu sistem informasi berorientasi objek menggunakan UML. Hasil dari Perancangan sistem informasi beban kerja dosen ini diharapkan dapat diimplementasikan kedalam sistem untuk mempermudah penyajian laporan beban kerja dosen secara online yang mana pangkalan datanya terpusat sehingga menghindari terjadinya duplikasi data, memudahkan setiap dosen mengetahui informasi beban kerjanya selain itu juga membantu pimpinan untuk melihat laporan beban kerja setiap dosen.
