Abstract

Kasemen District, Serang City, was one of the irrigation areas that experienced drought and became the focus of this community service. The lack of irrigation water is one of many factors that cause agricultural land in Kasemen District to switch functions. With the existence of several PKM activities such as field surveys, socialization, counseling on the operation and maintenance of irrigation sluice gates, it aims to increase community knowledge in the operation and maintenance of irrigation sluice gates. This activity encourages residents to be more concerned about river sustainability so that Cibomo Village's water needs can be met. The irrigation sluice gates are maintained as a result of this activity, and the Karya Tani Group's understanding of sluice gate operations and maintenance improves. Local residents are expected to become more concerned about the irrigation area environment as a result of the Karya Tani Group's increased understanding, particularly regarding the pattern of operation and maintenance of sluice gates.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of construction technology, particularly the use of ETABS software, demands a competent and adaptive workforce. This community service aimed to introduce students of SMA Negeri 3 Jakarta to ETABS technology, providing them with a solid foundation for entering the construction industry. The activity was conducted through direct demonstrations of ETABS software and a questionnaire to measure participants' understanding and interest. The results showed a significant increase in students' understanding of civil engineering concepts, particularly structural analysis. Furthermore, students' interest in the field of civil engineering also increased. This is evidenced by the survey results from 25 participants, where 60% of students expressed interest in learning more about ETABS software and pursuing a career in civil engineering.

Abstract

The low interest of high school students in civil engineering is a concern, as this field is crucial for infrastructure development. This community engagement program aimed to enhance the interest and understanding of civil engineering among students at SMAN 78 Jakarta through an innovative introductory program. The methods employed included interactive presentations on civil engineering, discussions, Q&A sessions, and evaluations. The results showed that 100% of students expressed a desire to learn more about civil engineering through follow-up activities, and 76.9% of students reported a better understanding of the field compared to before. Furthermore, 65.4% of students demonstrated increased interest in civil engineering, although the majority still placed it as a second or lower-choice major. The implications of this community service activity are increased awareness and interest among students in the field of civil engineering. However, to achieve a more significant shift in major selection, a more comprehensive approach is needed, such as more intensive career guidance, direct involvement with professionals, and more realistic work simulations.
