<![CDATA[The academic process requires speed and accuracy in processing student data, such as submitting final project titles. In the context of final project title recommendations, many universities have not yet implemented the Data Mining approach optimally. Based on this, this study aims to recommend grouping of student final project proposal titles. The K-Means clustering method can be used in grouping data based on similarities between analyzed objects. With the K-Means method, the student grouping process utilizes grade data from the courses of Rock Mechanics, Drilling and Excavation Techniques, Underground Mining Methods, Reserve Modeling and Evaluation, Explosives and Blasting Techniques, Open Pit Mining, Mine Drainage Systems, Mapping Surveys, and Mineral Resources. The results of K-Means are strongly influenced by the k parameter and centroid initialization. The research variables include data mapping of course grades of students in the Mining Engineering Study Program. Based on the K-Means Clustering Method, it has been able to divide 104 student value data into 3 clusters, namely Natural Resource Exploration (C0), Geomechanics (C1) and Mining Environment (C2). The results of Cluster CO are 60, the results of Cluster C1 are 27 and the results of Cluster C2 are 17. The contribution of this research can provide fast, precise and accurate information in grouping recommendations for student final project proposal titles.]]>
