Singaraja- Facing competition in the world of work, especially in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0, students at the Ganesha University of Education (Undiksha) were asked not to get stuck in a routine. A movement that leads to efforts to increase competitiveness needs to be done. This was emphasized by the Chancellor of Undiksha, Prof. Dr. I Nyoman Jampel, M.Pd., Monday (17/2/2020).
It is explained, changes in the current era are very difficult to predict. This needs to be anticipated by students who will later enter the world of work. Movements that characterize the era of the industrial revolution 4.0, namely critical, creative, collaboration, and communicative need to be highlighted. “Students should not be comfortable, in the sense that they only follow routines. But you have to always think about being the best student, because in participating in the selection, you are always seen from abilities, both in terms of knowledge and character, “he said.
As an institution that plays a role in improving the quality of Human Resources (HR), Undiksha has made efforts to anticipate future changes. As well as preparing a relevant and flexible curriculum. In a sense, providing greater space for students in scientific development. For example, engineering students wishing to study English can take special courses at the Faculty of Languages and Arts. Vice versa. This move is also in line with the policy of the Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia regarding three-semester student lectures outside the study program. “We continue to make efforts to answer the challenges ahead,” he added.
