Strategic Management, Governance & Vision Mission

The vision and mission of the Faculty support the development of internationally competitive study programs by focusing on excellence in information technology and national character. This is implemented through an Outcome-Based Education (OBE) curriculum, English-taught courses, and the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) program. Lecturers are encouraged to participate in international research collaborations, publish in reputable journals, and engage in global training. Students are supported in joining international mobility programs, global internships, and professional certifications. This strategy aligns with Ministry Regulation Number Three of Two Thousand Twenty and Rector’s regulations on education internationalization and graduate competitiveness. Through this approach, the faculty is committed to producing globally competent graduates with strong national values

The Faculty has a structured medium- and long-term strategy to support the international accreditation of the Informatics and Information Systems study programs. This strategy is embedded in the faculty’s Development Master Plan and Strategic Plan, which align with the UPNVJT Strategic Plan 2020–2024, and reflect the university’s vision to become a globally competitive institution. The strategy includes strengthening Outcome-Based Education (OBE)-oriented curricula, enhancing faculty qualifications through doctoral programs and international certifications, implementing globally aligned academic quality assurance, and preparing accreditation documents in accordance with international standards such as ASIIN.

Key steps have been implemented gradually, such as the use of the OBESESI system for tracking CLO/PLO achievements, preparing Self Assessment Reports (SAR) in line with ASIIN formats, and establishing an International Quality Assurance Team at the faculty level. The faculty also supports workshops, international benchmarking, and global academic partnerships as part of its preparation for international recognition. This approach aligns with Ministry of Education Regulation Number Three of Two Thousand Twenty on National Higher Education Standards, which promotes international accreditation to enhance global competitiveness. At the institutional level, UPNVJT Rector’s Regulation Number Twenty-Six of Two Thousand Twenty-Three on Higher Education Internationalization reinforces the importance of strategic efforts toward international recognition. Through this commitment, the faculty is confident in its ability to guide both study programs toward sustained international accreditation.

The Faculty plays a strategic role in coordinating the development of an academic roadmap across study programs, particularly between the Informatics and Information Systems programs. This academic roadmap is formulated as part of curriculum planning, reinforcement of Program Learning Outcomes (PLOs), and integration of education, research, and community service in alignment with the university’s tridharma mission. The faculty facilitates roadmap development through curriculum meetings, Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), and regular evaluation sessions involving curriculum development teams from each program, the quality assurance unit, and both internal and external stakeholders. Through this process, the faculty ensures that both programs’ academic directions are coherent, complementary, and responsive to industry needs and scientific advancement.

This coordination is in line with Ministry of Education Regulation Number Three of Two Thousand Twenty on National Higher Education Standards, which requires universities to develop academic strategies based on learning outcomes and future demands. At the institutional level, this coordinating role is supported by UPNVJT Rector’s Regulation Number Twenty-Five of Two Thousand Twenty-Three on Academic Management, which mandates faculties to synchronize the development of curricula and academic roadmaps across study programs. Therefore, the faculty acts not only as a facilitator but also as a strategic leader, ensuring that academic roadmaps support the institution’s vision of excellence and global competitiveness.

The Faculty has established specific policies to support internationalization activities, including student and staff exchange programs, dual degrees, joint supervision, and formal partnerships through MoUs and MoAs with foreign institutions. These policies are outlined in the Faculty’s Strategic Plan and facilitated through a dedicated Internationalization Coordinator, working closely with the university’s International Office (KUI). The faculty actively encourages its study programs to join international academic networks by developing bilingual curricula, preparing English-based academic documents, and aligning course structures with international standards to support credit transfer and academic recognition.

The implementation of these policies aligns with Ministry of Education Regulation Number Three of Two Thousand Twenty on National Higher Education Standards, which highlights international mobility as a key component of quality enhancement in higher education. At the institutional level, this is further supported by UPNVJT Rector’s Regulation Number Twenty-Six of Two Thousand Twenty-Three on Higher Education Internationalization, which mandates faculties to develop internationalization work plans and establish strategic overseas partnerships. The faculty has achieved several milestones, including partnerships with universities in Malaysia, Japan, and Thailand, as well as participation in student mobility, visiting professor programs, and international research collaborations. Through these policies, the faculty is committed to broadening global exposure for its academic community and strengthening the university’s international reputation.

The Faculty adopts naming and branding strategies that promote global understanding, especially among international stakeholders and prospective students. Program names such as Informatics and Information Systems use internationally recognized terms that reflect the global scope of information technology. Several courses are offered in English, and lecturers are encouraged to engage in international academic forums and publish in reputable journals. Students gain intercultural communication skills through MBKM, student exchange, and global academic activities. This strategy aligns with national regulations (Ministry Regulation Number Three of Two Thousand Twenty) and UPNVJT’s policy to support internationalization and strengthen institutional identity on a global scale.

The Faculty proposed ASIIN accreditation for the Informatics and Information Systems programs as part of its internationalization strategy toward becoming a World Class University. Although both programs have received “Very Good” accreditation from LAM INFOKOM, ASIIN accreditation is essential to gain international quality recognition, enhance graduates' global competitiveness, and strengthen the implementation of the OBE-based curriculum and the MBKM program.

The vision and mission of the Faculty support the development of internationally competitive study programs through the implementation of Outcome-Based Education (OBE), integration of Bela Negara values, and support for the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) program. The faculty’s vision to achieve international standards in information technology aligns with the university’s goal of becoming a World Class University by the year two thousand thirty-nine. The faculty offers English-taught courses, supports lecturers in international research and publications, and encourages students to participate in mobility programs, competitions, and international certifications. All initiatives are in line with Ministry Regulation Number Three of Two Thousand Twenty and UPNVJT Rector’s policies on curriculum development and internationalization

The Faculty of Computer Science applies Bela Negara (national defense) values in teaching, research, and community service. Values such as patriotism, national awareness, and willingness to sacrifice are included in compulsory courses like Pancasila Education, Civics, and Professional Ethics. Outside the classroom, students join character-building activities, digital ethics training, and tech-based social projects. These efforts follow Ministry Regulation Number Three of Two Thousand Twenty.

At the university level, the implementation of Bela Negara is regulated through UPNVJT Rector’s Regulation Number Four of Two Thousand Twenty-One, which requires all faculties to align strategies, curricula, and tridharma activities with those values. The faculty also evaluates student qualities like social responsibility, discipline, and leadership. Activities such as Bela Negara community service, cybersecurity training, and national seminars are real examples. The goal is to produce graduates who are intelligent, have strong character, and love their country.

The Faculty integrates the university’s vision and mission into the educational objectives of its study programs through an OBE-based curriculum that embodies national defense values and the World Class University 2039 vision. This is implemented through courses such as Civics, National Defense, and Professional Ethics to develop students' character. Lecturers serve as facilitators of institutional values through teaching, research, and community service. Students are guided to engage in academic and non-academic activities that enhance both global competence and national character. This process aligns with national regulations (Ministry Regulation No. 3/2020) and UPNVJT's internal policies, including MBKM and curriculum guidelines, ensuring full integration of institutional vision into program design and execution.

There are several application-based services at the faculty level, including: SIPATCA, this is a service used by students to do correspondence, such as college certificates, letters of activity outside campus and transcripts, and others. Then, there is the U-YUS application (U is Exam and Yus is Judisium), this application is used for student services who will advance to the thesis defense and who will carry out Judisium at the Faculty level. Then there is OBESISI in Information Systems, BIMA in Informatics, at the university level there is the SIAMIK service, for student registration services, taking courses, and others, There is E-learning, for Lecturers and education staff, there is the SIMPEG application (Personnel System), some add

The title of a graduate depends on the formal degree designation used by the university. In the case of a Computer Science degree, there are typically two ways the title might be presented:

1. S.Kom (Sarjana Komputer): This is an abbreviation used in Indonesia for a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science. The acronym S.Kom stands for "Sarjana Komputer", which is the Indonesian designation for someone who has completed a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science. This is similar to the use of S.T. (Sarjana Teknik) for engineering graduates.

Sarjana Komputer: This is the full version of the degree title, and it translates to "Bachelor of Informatics & Information System" in English. Some universities prefer to use the full title in official documents and certificates.

In summary, graduates of a Informatic & Information System program in Indonesia may use either:

• S.kom (abbreviated version), or
• Sarjana Komputer (full version),

depending on the context or how the degree title is officially recognized by the institution. Both versions signify the same academic qualification.
