Abstract

This study examines the factors influencing students’ interest in pursuing industrial careers within the Vocational Education and Automotive Technology Program at Universitas Lancang Kuning Pekanbaru. Using a quantitative approach and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), data were collected from 74 students across three academic levels. The analysis identified two dominant dimensions: external factors (job opportunities, parental support, industry collaboration) and internal factors (personal interest, technological proficiency, practical experience), which together explained 77.135% of the variance. Variables such as industrial prestige and work environment were excluded due to low significance. The findings emphasize that industrial career interest is shaped by both institutional support and individual readiness. These results provide valuable insights for enhancing vocational education strategies through better stakeholder collaboration and targeted curriculum development.

Abstract

 Abstract: Higher education plays a crucial and strategic role in relation to the focus of national development, specifically the economic and human resource sectors. This study utilizes a qualitative approach and development in the field of education, utilizing Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) as the primary data collection technique. This study utilized a qualitative approach, utilizing Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) as the primary data collection technique. These FGDs allowed researchers to explore in-depth perspectives from participants through dynamic group interactions. The FGDs yielded a hypothetical model depicting the synergistic relationship between the three primary vocational education entities. The LPTK plays a role in providing the foundations of entrepreneurial competencies and automotive engineering skills, as well as shaping students' self-confidence and character. The validation results for the development of the Triple-Helix partnership model in preparing vocational students showed a high level of feasibility, with an overall score of 87%, categorized as suitable for use with revision. The development of a vocational student preparation model is based on a triple-helix partnership. The triple-helix partnership is based on a partnership between LPTK, SMK, and DUDI (industrial and industrial sectors). The key factor in the success of this model is the foundation of the partnership, a memorandum of understanding (MoU) between the three parties.  Keywords: Vocational student development, triple-helix partnerships   Abstrak: Perguruan Tinggi mempunyai peran penting dan strategis apabila dikaitkan dengan titik berat pembangunan nasional yaitu sektor ekonomi dan sumberdaya manusia.
