Abstract. The role of universities in promoting sustainability has outstretched over the past decades as a result of abundant declarations related to the need for sustainability in higher education. As consequences, several universities have integrated sustainability into their curricula, research, programs, projects, partnerships, and assessments. However, despite the need for sustainable development in today's highly competitive global network, many university members especially students are still unaware or ignorant of sustainability practices. This research tried to analyse the gap between what the university has done in campaigning for sustainability and what the students have perceived. A case study is conducted in Diponegoro University, Indonesia. Twelve indicators of four variables, i.e., community outreach; sustainability commitment and monitoring; waste and energy; as well as land use and planning are used to accomplish this research. Three hundred and fortyfive students spreading from all faculties participated in the survey. The result shows that an average gap of -0.38 is revealed; indicating that the respondents did not consider a significant impact on the sustainability programs. In addition, more than 50% of the respondents were not familiar with the sustainability programs. It is suggested that the university has to put more attention in fostering sustainability to its biggest stakeholders.

Campus sustainability has been the focus of global issues by university planners and policy makers as a result of realizing the impact of university activities on the environment. Application of campus sustainability in Indonesia, especially Diponegoro University (UNDIP) is still not widely done. There are several phenomena in UNDIP towards campus sustainability. This study discusses the assessment of campus sustainability in UNDIP. The framework to be used is a framework developed by Alghamdi in 2017. The AHP method will be used in determining the priorities of the main criterias, sub criterias, and indicators of the framework. The output of the priority will be used to calculate the sustainability score in UNDIP by multiplying the weight and scale of each indicator. The research has shown that there are 5 main criterias, 14 sub criterias, and 35 indicators. The important priorities are management with weight of 0.462, academia with weight of 0.172; environment with weight of 0.169; engagement with weight of 0.127; and innovation with weight of 0.070. The result of campus sustainability score in UNDIP is 75,1050 indicating that UNDIP is very sustainable.
