Singaraja- A number of faculties within the Ganesha University of Education (Undiksha) have held a Working Meeting (Raker) for the 2021 fiscal year. In line with that, Undiksha Deputy Chancellor II, Prof. Dr. I Wayan Lasmawan, M.Pd., asked for “independence” in budget and program management.
The Deputy Chancellor from Bonyoh Village, Kintamani District, Bangli Regency admitted that until now Undiksha still needs improvement. As well as lecture buildings, laboratory facilities, facilities, and performance of online-based services, the ratio of lecturers, laboratory assistants, and information processors. The same thing also happens with institutional income which in the future must be proportional to development needs. These conditions receive serious attention to be handled so that Undiksha can get better.
Related to this condition, the faculty also has a very strategic role. Programs that are designed annually should lead to quality improvement. In this case, the head of the rectorate encourages breakthroughs in budget management through the autonomy policy of each faculty, which involves four phases, namely determining sources and uses, setting program priorities, program acceleration and revision, and disbursement and SPJ. “This is the independence of budget management. A moving faculty” said Lasmawan.
Delivered further, in preparing programs, faculties must be based on planning performance, which consists of programs and activities to be implemented as well as performance indicators to be achieved by a budget entity. Besides that, planning performance is also in an integrated manner which shows the relationship between the level of program funding and the desired results of the program. No less important, the preparation of programs carried out by the faculty must pay attention to the relationship between the output and the expected results of these activities, including the level of effectiveness. “Program development also places more emphasis on the utilization of available funds to achieve optimal and effective results for overall institutional outcomes,” he said.
In an effort to develop the university, in the 2021 fiscal year, faculties are expected to map and formulate existing potential in real terms. This potential can be developed to overcome problems and achieve work targets. “The program must be directed at objectively achieving faculty and university rankings,” he said.
Delivered further, as a Public Service Agency (BLU), Undiksha is boosting business development. According to Lasmawan, who is also the Head of Warek II Forum throughout Indonesia, business development can be carried out through expanding access, quality assurance, and relevance of institutional performance, increasing quality and relevant research products – P2M for strengthening knowledge and downstream it to the industrial world, building community centers – a partnership-based business/entrepreneurship center that is a mutualist symbiosis. “This is what the faculty also needs support. The potential that can enter as a business can be developed,” he added. (hms)
