Abstract

Prior to the ASEAN Economic Community in the end of 2015, one of the keys for Indonesian engineers to outrank engineers from other ASEAN countries is mastering English language skills. This study aims at analyzing the English needs of undergraduate engineering students at Universitas Indonesia. Questionnaires and semi-structured interviews were used as the data collection methods. The questionnaires were spread to 111 alumni and 150 students from the Faculty of Engineering. The interviews were conducted with HRD from a multinational company, HRD from a local company, three heads of departments, and two lecturers from the Faculty of Engineering. The research reveals that students’ needs of English language learning are considered not as high as their needs of English language use. The recommendation given to the Faculty of Engineering is to conduct an optional course on English for Professional Purposes, and the course is to be handled by professional English teachers helped by the lecturers from the Faculty of Engineering.

Abstract

This study addresses the low tertiary educational attainment in Indonesia despite the critical role of higher education in societal development. The research aims to assess the contribution of an Indonesian Civil Society Organization (CSO), specifically the Suryanara Foundation, through its mentoring program, Adik Asuh Suryanara, on tertiary enrollment. The study utilizes a case study research design focusing on the organized mentoring program, examining both objective outcomes (tertiary enrollment achievements) and subjective outcomes (participant perceptions). Data collection involved document analysis and a survey conducted among program participants. Results indicate that a significant majority of scholarship awardees successfully enrolled in universities, primarily in state institutions and highly-ranked universities across various disciplines. This achievement is coupled with the perceived personal development of the program participants in terms of the creation of a college-going culture, instrumental and communicative learning, role modeling by mentors, and a sense of community establishment among participants. The study suggests the essential roles of the Suryanara Foundation as an advocate for distributive justice, an agent of empowerment, and a collaborator in supporting tertiary enrollment in Indonesia. By evaluating the effectiveness of the CSO-led mentoring program, this research contributes to the CSO literature towards strengthening the roles of CSOs in enhancing tertiary education access and quality.
