KMM Mathematics Study Program
In accordance with the Minister of Education and Culture’s policy in 2020 regarding Merdeka Belajar-Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) which aims to encourage students to master various sciences that are useful for entering the world of work. Merdeka Campus provides opportunities for students to choose the courses they will take.
Merdeka Belajar – Kampus Merdeka policy is in accordance with Permendikbud Number 3 of 2020 concerning National Higher Education Standards, in Article 18 it is stated that the fulfilment of the period and learning load for undergraduate or applied undergraduate students can be carried out: 1) following the entire learning processin the study programme at the university according to the period and learning load; and 2) following the learning process in the study programme to meet part ofthe period and learning load and the rest following the learning process outside thestudy programme.
Through Merdeka Belajar – Kampus Merdeka, students have the opportunity for 1 (one) semester or the equivalent of 20 (twenty) credits to take learning outside the study programme at the same tertiary institution; and a maximum of 2 (two) semesters or the equivalent of 40 (forty) credits to take learning in the same study programme at different tertiary institutions, learning in different study programmes at different tertiary institutions; and/or learning outside tertiary institutions.
One form of learning activities outside of higher education is internship / work practice in industry or other workplaces. Internship activities in industry or other workplaces for 1-2 semesters or equivalent to 20-40 credits, hereinafter referred to as MBKM Internship. The objectives of the MBKM Internship are provide sufficient experience to students, experiential learning in the workplace. During the internship, students will gain both hard and soft skills. This is in line with the curriculum that has been developed by the Mathematics Study Programme in facilitating students to apply the knowledge gained in college to theworld of work (where students are interning) through Student Internship Activities (KMM). KMM is a compulsory course of the Mathematics Study Programme that must be completed by students. Thus, students who carry out the MBKM Internship can also be recognised in the Ma- hasiswa Internship Activity (KMM) course with a weight of 2 credits and the rest is taken from the courses offered by the study programme.
MBKM internship activities are an option for students who have fulfilled certain requirements to exercise their right to get knowledge outside the university. Students who choose MBKM Internship activities mean that they have chosen to replace lectures on campus with activities in the gang place. Thus, allconsequences that arise related to the needs of life at the internship site andresidence at the internship site are the responsibility of the student. Synergism and integration between students, internship partners, and the study programme will create a continuity of activities that have an impact on the development of MBKM activities in the Mathematics Study Programme FMIPA UNS.
After students carry out MBKM or KMM internship activities, they must prepare a report containing the activities that have been carried out. Often students do not have a clear picture of the procedures for writing proposals and reports, even administrative procedures. For this reason, it is necessary to prepare an MBKM Internship guidebook that contains procedures for writing proposals and reports.
