Abstract
Indonesia has implemented the MBKM policy to improve the skills and abilities of graduates through adaptable and hands-on learning. Nevertheless, the execution of the plan has faced numerous challenges, requiring a thorough assessment. Furthermore, the study aligns with crucial Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including SDG 4 (Quality Education), as it seeks to improve educational quality to achieve national development goals. The objective of this study is to examine the effectiveness of the MBKM policy implementation and identify the elements that either facilitate or impede its success at Universitas Jenderal Soedirman. The study employs a qualitative descriptive technique, utilising in-depth interviews, observations, focus group discussions, and document analysis. The data were analysed using the interactive methodology developed by Miles, Huberman, and Saldana. The findings demonstrate both favourable effects and difficulties in applying MBKM, encompassing concerns regarding curriculum adaptation and doubts regarding its efficacy in attaining human resource development objectives. This study enhances existing knowledge on implementing policies in higher education and offers significant insights for policymakers and university administrators. These discoveries can provide valuable insights for improving future policies and strategies aimed at maximising the success of the MBKM program in cultivating highly skilled human resources in Indonesian higher education institutions.
