Internship programs represent one of the implementations of the Kampus Berdampak policy aimed at enhancing students’ competencies, work experience, and readiness to enter the professional workforce. The success of such programs is highly dependent on effective governance through the application of the management functions of Planning, Organizing, Actuating, and Controlling (POAC). This study aims to analyze the implementation of POAC functions in the governance of student internship programs conducted outside Universitas Bina Darma. The research was carried out at the Kampus Berdampak Service Center of Universitas Bina Darma using a quantitative descriptive approach. Data were collected through questionnaires, observations, and documentation involving 23 students participating in off-campus internship programs. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics based on the mean scores of each research indicator. The findings indicate that the implementation of POAC management functions in internship governance was categorized as very good, with an overall mean score of 4.29. The planning variable achieved the highest mean score (4.39), followed by organizing (4.30), actuating (4.27), and controlling (4.21). These results demonstrate that the internship program has been managed systematically and effectively. Nevertheless, monitoring and follow-up mechanisms require further improvement to support a more optimal and sustainable implementation of the program.
