Final Project

In the implementation of Final Project, students must have a supervisor. Final Project supervisors are strived to have expertise according to the scientific field of Final Project topics submitted by students, considering the distribution of the burden and responsibilities of supervising lecturers in the study program. 

Qualifications of lecturers who are authorized to guide Final Projects are lecturers who have the following requirements:

You can check the JFA of a lecturer in PDDIKTI (https://pddikti.kemdikbud.go.id) by searching the lecturer’s name.

In the proposal writing, you should find supervisor(s) and write a proposal which describes your plan for your final project. The proposal writing should be written under the supervision of your supervisor(s). Hence, you should determine your supervisor(s) as soon as possible. Before a semester starts, the department usually give a list of topics offered by lecturers that you can take for your final project. There are several classes you can choose to take for the Proposal Writing course, based on the topic you are interested in. You should already know which class you want to take before the registration process for the semester where you take the course starts. The proposal must be written in English for international students.

At the end of your study, you will need to present your final project. There are several options you can choose for the presentation, as described below. For every option, you will need to submit some documents so that the department can hold an academic assembly to determine whether you are eligible to do the presentation, because the presentation should be your final academic activity.

Academic Defense

In regular academic defense, you will present your final project result to your supervisor(s) and two lecturers, who will give score for your final project. For the defense there are several documents you need to submit, as proof of eligibility of the defense. You are eligible for the defense if you only have Final Project course left to pass to graduate. There are two types of defenses we have in the department:

1.     Regular defense

For regular defense, you can apply for the defense by submitting some documents through an application form. Supervisors’ approval is required in this type of defense.

2.     Scheduled defense

For scheduled defense, the department will schedule the defense and you can submit the required documents later after the defense. For this type of defense, supervisors’ approval is not required.

Internal Seminar

You may choose an internal seminar if you have publication or intellectual property rights of your final project.

-       If you submit a paper of your final project to an international conference indexed by SCOPUS, you can apply for internal seminar by submitting Letter of Acceptance and Presentation Certificate. 

-       If you submit a paper of your final project to a journal (minimum Sinta-4 indexed), you must submit: 

a) Letter of Acceptance (LoA), 

b) Response form signed by the supervisor can be downloaded at: http://bit.ly/ResponseFormTA,

If you have intellectual property rights of your final project, you can submit the rights certificate.

Having completed your final project does not mean you can graduate instantly.

There ara a lot of administration process to be completed. So be sure that you understand the steps.
