Some Interventions for Sustainability Leveraged Mechanical Engineering Education
Full text linkEmbedding Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into engineering education is critical to prepare engineers who are both technically skilled and socially responsible. Universities and nations are increasingly evaluated by their contributions toward SDGs, making sustainability a central element of modern curricula. Integrating sustainability not only fosters economic growth, environmental protection, and social impact but also encourages learners to balance technical excellence with societal welfare. Quality education, as emphasized in SDG 4, is achieved when engineering programs move beyond technical training to encourage values of responsibility, ethics, and sustainability in future engineers. Sustainability-integrated engineering curricula require awareness, knowledge-building, involvement, and collaboration attempts. This article covers some important aspects of embedding sustainability in engineering education. With the help of showcasing the activities on sustainability-integrated teaching, learning, and projects, conducted at one of the leading international Pan African universities, this article aims to disseminate the concept of sustainable engineering education and encourages future interventions to establish the field further
Evaluasi Pembelajaran Bahasa Indonesia Berbasis Kurikulum Merdeka: Kajian Literatur

From University to the World of Work: A Higher Education Curriculum response
Full text linkGraduate employability remains a critical challenge in higher education, with increasing concerns about whether universities adequately equip students for the workforce. Employers often highlight deficiencies in essential workplace skills, including practical knowledge, emotional intelligence, and adaptability, while scholars debate whether the issue stems from an overemphasis on theoretical knowledge or a misalignment between academic outcomes and industry demands. This study critically examines both perspectives by utilizing a mixed-methods approach, combining a literature review, employer surveys, and case studies. The research explores how higher education curricula can bridge the gap between academic knowledge and professional skills. Key findings emphasize the importance of work-integrated learning (WIL), internships, and soft skills training, though challenges remain in ensuring their accessibility, integration, and relevance within diverse educational contexts. The study also addresses the impact of evolving labor market dynamics, such as automation, digital transformation, and globalization, on graduate employability. Based on these findings, the study advocates for a balanced curriculum that integrates theoretical knowledge with practical skills, emphasizing interdisciplinary learning and adaptability. Recommendations include enhancing university-employer collaborations, expanding experiential learning opportunities, and fostering digital literacy, with a focus on preparing graduates for lifelong learning in an ever-evolving job market
