Abstract

Purpose – This study examines the psychological and academic antecedents of employability skills among engineering students by investigating the roles of self-efficacy and academic commitment, with career planning as a mediating variable.Methods – A quantitative cross-sectional survey was conducted with 323 undergraduate engineering students from a public university in Indonesia. Validated instruments were used to measure self-efficacy, academic commitment (level of commitment, investment, and meaningfulness), career planning, and employability skills (analytical skills, general management, and leadership). Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Findings – The findings showed that self-efficacy and academic investment were the most consistent predictors of career planning. In turn, career planning was positively associated with all dimensions of employability skills, indicating its central role as a mediating mechanism between psychological and academic factors and employability outcomes. By contrast, level of commitment and meaningfulness showed weaker and less consistent relationships with employability dimensions.Research implications – The findings highlight the importance of strengthening self-efficacy, promoting active academic investment, and integrating structured career planning into higher education to support students’ employability development. Originality – This study extends prior employability research by testing a mediated model of self-efficacy, academic commitment, and career planning in an Indonesian engineering student context. However, the findings should be interpreted cautiously due to the cross-sectional design and single-university sample.

Abstract

This community service activity in the form of an architectural sketch competition among high school students was motivated by the declining interest in manual drawing skills and the limited understanding of basic architectural concepts, particularly perspective and visual representation. The activity aimed to enhance students’ visual creativity, observational skills, and spatial understanding through a hands-on learning approach. The method employed was experiential learning through a live sketch (on-the-spot) activity, where participants were required to draw the Menara Phinisi Building of Universitas Negeri Makassar using manual (freehand) techniques. The implementation stages included preparation, competition execution, technical guidance, and evaluation by a panel of judges. The results showed that all participants were able to produce sketch works demonstrating a fairly good application of perspective principles, as well as diverse visual styles reflecting their creativity. The activity also improved students’ visual thinking skills, accuracy, and active engagement throughout the process. The impact of this activity includes increased understanding of architectural concepts and growing interest in the field of art and design. It is recommended that similar activities be developed sustainably as an effective practice-based educational medium for young learners.
