Magister Program

Master’s Program in Geological Engineering
The educational system in the Master’s Program in Geological Engineering at Universitas Padjadjaran is designed based on an Outcome-Based Education (OBE) approach with student-centered learning methods. The curriculum is dynamically developed and evaluated in accordance with current developments, the needs of Science, Technology, and the Arts (IPTEKS), as well as the competencies required by society and graduate stakeholders. The curriculum also refers to the National Standards for Higher Education (Standar Nasional Pendidikan Tinggi / SN-DIKTI), ensuring that graduates meet the qualifications of the Indonesian National Qualifications Framework (Kerangka Kualifikasi Nasional Indonesia / KKNI) Level 8. These qualifications are formulated through graduate learning outcomes encompassing attitudes, knowledge, and skills, with a systematically structured curriculum designed to fulfill the graduation requirements of the Master’s Program in Geological Engineering.
