Abstract

Undergraduate Engineering Management Study Program of Institut Teknologi Del is one of the pioneers for its field in Indonesia. Located in Lake Toba Area, this study program has a mission to provide high quality Engineering Management education that produces globally competitive graduates who in turn will contribute to local development. Framing the Energy Technology course—one of the core subjects in Engineering Management Body of Knowledge—in the context of sustainable development of Lake Toba Area is very essential. Thus, one particular focus in this course is sustainable energy systems in local development context that incorporates identification and analysis of locally available energy resources. In this paper we present our experience in designing such course. In this work, we introduce the domains that shape the Engineering Management Body of Knowledge. Then, we explain the results of our evaluation on the key considerations to meet the rapidly changing needs of society in local context. Later, we present the framework of the learning outcomes and the syllabus as a result of mapping the road map with the requirement. At the end, the summary from the first two semesters of delivering this course in academic year 2015/2016 and 2016/2017 are reported.

Summary

Introduction

The Undergraduate Engineering Management Study Program (UEMSP) in Institut Teknologi Del is one of the pioneers for its field in Indonesia. The Engineering Management bachelor's degree program combines a strong engineering core with training in data analysis and visualization, process and project management, engineering design, systems integration, and managerial economics. Energy Technology Course (ETC) is listed as a compulsory course during sophomore year This course of 3 credit-hours per week is essentially aimed to provide UEMSP students with strong foundation in scientific and technological factors, as well as the nature of the energy in nature and society. This will enable them to see the big-picture perspective that comes with in the real world. The authors describe the design process, implementations and evaluations of ETC in terms of aims, philosophy, structure and outcomes from some of this initiative
