Implementation of Independent Campusat Private Universities in North Sumatra

Abstract

The Independent Learning Independent Campus gives students the right to study for three semesters outside the study program. The expected goal of the program is for university graduates to have superior competencies and personalities relevant to the demands of the industrial revolution 4.0 and society 5.0. This study aims to describe the implementation profile of the Independent Learning Independent Campus through a survey method at 211 private universities in North Sumatra. Data collection techniques used online questionnaires, and data analysis used descriptive statistics. The percentage of activities that were most participated by students in the Independent Campus activities were Internships/Practice (30.55), Teaching Assistance in Education Units (12.65%), and Village Building (27.07%). An alternative solution to increase the quantity and quality of student participation in the Independent Campus activities is to strengthen the internal management of sustainable institutions.
