Analisis kerjasama sekolah dengan dunia usaha dan dunia industri dalam meningkatkan mutu lulusan sekolah menengah kejuruan

This study aims to analyze the school's collaboration with industry and business community (DU/DI) in improving the quality of Vocational High School (SMK) graduates. This study applies a qualitative descriptive approach of case study design at SMK Negeri 3 Jayapura. The researcher as the key instrument of the research conducted an in-depth interview with principals, teachers/public relations, students, school committees, supervisors as well as industry and business community (DU/DI). Participatory observation and document analysis were also utilized in order to support the data gathering process. The techniques for validating the data were gathered by extending the time of observation, peer discussion and triangulation. The data was analyzed qualitatively by means of data reduction, data display, and drawing conclusions/verification. The results of this study indicate that the school's collaboration with industry and business community (DU/DI) in improving the quality of SMK Negeri 3 Jayapura is favorable but still needs some improvement. It still requires some adjustments in term of alignment of the data-based industry-based curriculum which involves industry and business community (DU/DI) from its early establishment, the presence of industrial teachers which has not yet touched the substance of industrial practice and the absorption of graduates is still limited to MoUs bound by contracts and high-achieving graduates.

Astronomical and space-based systems engineering

The Master's degree “Outils et Systèmes de l'Astronomie et de l'Espace” (OSAE, “Astronomical and Space-based Systems Engineering”) is intended for students interested in Astronomy and Space technology. Students undergo a comprehensive training in partnership with international-level laboratories and with leading private companies. The degree provides physicists with a wide range of skills, appropriate for those whose intention is to participate in subsystems, equipment and engineering systems, and also for future project managers, working in the aerospace industry or similar technological industries or in national and European agencies. The 1-year course is given in collaboration with national and international institutions, laboratories and industries. It includes an extended training period (5 to 6 months) and a theoretical and practical specialization given by university and industrial teachers. It benefits from the network of laboratories associated with the Astronomy and Astrophysics doctorate school of the Île-de-France.
