    Unikom Fisip Communication Studies Program’s Community Service Initiative: Providing Digital Communication Solutions to the Cipatat Youth Organization Using Slack and Trello

    BANDUNG, UNIKOM — The Universitas Komputer Indonesia (UNIKOM) continues to promote the use of digital technology within the community through its Community Service (PKM) activities. This time, the Communication Studies Program at UNIKOM’s Faculty of Social and Political Sciences (FISIP) partnered with the Cipatat Subdistrict Youth Organization in West Bandung Regency to strengthen the capacity of youth organizations through the implementation of digital-based organizational communication. Under the theme “A Digital Organizational Communication Model for the Cipatat Subdistrict Karang Taruna through the Implementation of Slack and Trello,” the event took place on Sunday, July 26, at the Nyalindung Village Sports Hall in Cipatat Subdistrict, West Bandung Regency.

    A total of 20 participants representatives of the Cipatat Subdistrict Karang Taruna Executive Forum (FPKT) and Karang Taruna members from several villages took part in the event, which combined an understanding of digital organizational communication with hands-on practice using the Slack and Trello applications. This event was part of an effort to help youth organizations adapt to developments in information technology, particularly in establishing more effective, collaborative, transparent, and well-documented communication patterns.

    During an interview, PKM Executive Chair Inggar Prayoga, S.I.Kom., M.I.Kom., explained that digital transformation within an organization goes beyond the use of technology; it also involves changes in communication culture and organizational governance. “Digital transformation isn’t just about using apps; it’s about building a communication culture that is faster, more collaborative, transparent, and well-documented. “Through the use of Slack and Trello, we aim to help Karang Taruna establish a more effective organizational communication system so that it can improve the quality of its services and the implementation of its work programs,” said Inggar.

    According to him, advancements in digital technology have transformed the way organizations communicate and collaborate. Therefore, as a youth social organization, Karang Taruna needs to leverage technology to strengthen cross-village coordination while enhancing the effectiveness of managing various activities.

    The event began with opening remarks from Junjun Rohadi, Chair of the Cipatat Subdistrict Karang Taruna. He expressed appreciation for the collaboration between UNIKOM and the Cipatat Subdistrict Karang Taruna, particularly in enhancing human resource capacity through the strengthening of digital literacy. “We would like to thank the Communication Studies Program at UNIKOM’s Faculty of Social and Political Sciences for selecting the Cipatat Subdistrict Karang Taruna as a partner in this activity. This training is highly relevant to our organization’s needs, especially for improving coordination among board members and streamlining communication in implementing various social programs,” he said.

    Additionally, similar appreciation was expressed by the Nyalindung Village Government, represented by Hamlet Head Didin Solihin. According to him, collaboration between universities and the community is a vital form of synergy in supporting village development, particularly through enhancing the knowledge and capacity of the younger generation. “We warmly welcome this activity because it provides new knowledge that is greatly needed by the younger generation. Hopefully, the knowledge gained will not stop in the training room but can be applied in the activities of the Youth Association in each village,” said Didin.

    The event was then officially opened by the Chair of the Communication Studies Program at FISIP UNIKOM, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Manap Solihat, M.Si. In his remarks, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Manap emphasized that community service is one of the forms of implementing the Tri Dharma of Higher Education, which must be able to provide solutions to community needs. “Higher education institutions not only generate knowledge but also have a responsibility to provide solutions for the community. Our collaboration with the Cipatat Subdistrict Karang Taruna is a manifestation of our commitment to supporting the digital transformation of youth organizations so that they become more adaptive, professional, and capable of delivering broader benefits to the community,” he said.

    Moving on to the main session, participants were presented with two complementary topics. The first session, titled “Digital Communication Transformation for an Innovative and Responsive Karang Taruna,” was presented by Inggar Prayoga, S.I.Kom., M.I.Kom. The session discussed the paradigm shift in organizational communication in the digital age, strategies for building effective internal communication, the importance of digital documentation, and the use of technology to enhance organizational productivity.

    Next, Donny Reza, S.T., M.Kom., an information technology expert at UNIKOM, provided technical training on using the Slack and Trello applications. Participants not only gained a theoretical understanding but were also guided through hands-on practice using both platforms from creating digital workspaces, assigning tasks, managing projects, and scheduling activities, to monitoring the progress of collaborative work programs.

    The participants’ enthusiasm was evident throughout the event. Interactive discussions and hands-on practice demonstrated the strong interest of the Karang Taruna leadership in adopting digital communication systems for their daily organizational activities. Through this PKM activity, the Communication Studies Program at FISIP UNIKOM hopes that the implementation of Slack and Trello can serve as a model for digital organizational communication that supports improved coordination, accelerates decision-making, and strengthens collaboration among Karang Taruna leaders in Cipatat Subdistrict.

    More than just training in the use of applications, this activity is part of UNIKOM’s efforts to build the capacity of youth organizations so they can better adapt to technological developments and the demands of organizational management in the digital age. Through this PKM initiative, the Communication Studies Program at FISIP UNIKOM reaffirms its ongoing commitment to supporting the community through the application of communication science and digital technology. With this capacity-building, youth organizations are expected to become increasingly capable of establishing effective communication, managing programs collaboratively, and making broader contributions to the community.

Students gained insight into how a reliable Finance & Accounting team plays a crucial role in ensuring that financial recording and management are conducted transparently and accountably.

    Furthermore, this function is also vital in supporting the company’s readiness for periodic audits. This understanding provided students with the perspective that accounting competencies are not only related to theory and financial record-keeping but also play a strategic role in supporting the company’s operational sustainability. The industry visit took place in an educational yet interactive atmosphere. Following the presentation session on the company and the industry, students participated in a product demonstration that involved several students as live models.

    The atmosphere became even more lively through interactive icebreaker activities. The series of activities then continued with a discussion and a question-and-answer session. The students’ enthusiasm was evident from the various questions they asked throughout the event. The event concluded with the Head of the UNIKOM Accounting Program presenting a commemorative gift to a representative of PT Victoria Care Indonesia Tbk as a token of appreciation and gratitude for the warm welcome, openness, and insights shared with the students.

  • Collaboration Between Unikom Scholarship Division And Pajajaran Icb Polytechnic In Bandung Equips Kip Students  With Financial Literacy To Prevent Cybercrime

    Collaboration Between Unikom Scholarship Division And Pajajaran Icb Polytechnic In Bandung Equips Kip Students  With Financial Literacy To Prevent Cybercrime

    BANDUNG, UNIKOM — The ease of digital transactions amid technological advancements has been accompanied by an increased risk of cybercrime that can threaten students’ financial security. In response to this, the Universitas Komputer Indonesia (UNIKOM), through its Scholarship Division in collaboration with Pajajaran ICB Polytechnic in Bandung, organized a Community Service (PKM) activity in the form of financial literacy and management guidance for students receiving the KIP Kuliah scholarship on Thursday, July 16, 2026, held in Room 4310, Building 3 at UNIKOM. The activity specifically aimed to equip students with the knowledge and skills to manage their KIP Kuliah grant funds while raising awareness about various forms of digital financial crime, or cybercrime.

    Participants in the event were students receiving KIP Kuliah grants from UNIKOM and the Pajajaran ICB Polytechnic in Bandung; the event was part of a collaborative partnership between UNIKOM’s KIP Kuliah program administrators and the Pajajaran ICB Polytechnic in Bandung to provide guidance relevant to the challenges students face in the digital age.

    During the event, students received financial literacy training delivered by Dr. Linna Ismawati, S.E., M.Si., CFRM., Chair of UNIKOM’s Scholarship Division. The material not only focused on how students can manage their funds wisely but also introduced various potential risks that may arise when conducting financial activities online.

    One of the main concerns addressed during the session was the rise in fraud schemes targeting students, particularly after KIP Kuliah funds have been disbursed. Students can fall victim to various criminal schemes, ranging from phishing to steal financial data, fraudulent investment schemes, online shopping scams, to scams disguised as prizes or additional scholarships.

    Through simulations of the risks posed by online crime, students are encouraged to understand how an action that seems simple in the digital space can lead to financial loss. This approach is intended to help students not only grasp the theoretical concepts of financial literacy but also recognize the signs of fraud and make safer decisions when managing their finances.

    This initiative is considered increasingly important because students receiving the KIP Kuliah scholarship are a group that requires guidance in managing their educational aid funds and operational expenses. A lack of knowledge regarding digital transaction security can increase students’ vulnerability to various forms of financial crime.

    During an interview, the Head of the Scholarship Division, Dr. Linna Ismawati, S.E., M.Si., CFRM., stated, “This activity is very important, especially for new students. Students in the KIP Kuliah program are vulnerable to fraud involving KIP Kuliah funds by irresponsible parties. Therefore, students need to have financial literacy and understand the risks of online crime so they can safeguard the financial aid they receive,” she said.

    In addition, the collaboration between UNIKOM and the Pajajaran ICB Polytechnic in Bandung was further strengthened through the signing of a PKM partnership agreement by the Director of the Pajajaran ICB Polytechnic in Bandung, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Gunardi, S.E., M.M., CFTAX. This collaboration represents a strategic step to expand the impact of student mentoring and enhance students’ capacity to address the challenges of financial management in the digital age.

    Through the PKM activities organized by UNIKOM Scholarship Division in collaboration with its partners, students are expected not only to manage their KIP Kuliah funds responsibly but also to adopt a critical mindset toward various financial offers and activities in the digital world. The ability to recognize fraud schemes, protect the confidentiality of personal and financial data, and make wise financial decisions serves as essential preparation for students in safeguarding the security of the financial aid they receive. Ultimately, this financial literacy guidance is expected to foster KIP Kuliah students who are more informed, independent, and vigilant in managing their finances, ensuring that educational aid funds are utilized according to their needs and protected from the threat of cybercrime.

  • Unikom Officially Send Off 560 Students For The 2026 “Kkn Berdampak” Program, Promoting Waste Management Initiatives In Coblong District

    Unikom Officially Send Off 560 Students For The 2026 “Kkn Berdampak” Program, Promoting Waste Management Initiatives In Coblong District

    BANDUNG, UNIKOM — Wednesday, August 12, 2026, the Universitas Komputer Indonesia (UNIKOM) officially sent off 560 students participating in the 2026 UNIKOM Impact Community Service Program (KKN) to contribute directly to the community, specifically by supporting waste management in Coblong Subdistrict, Bandung City, under the theme “Tracked Waste, Organized Environment.” Held at the UNIKOM Dago Campus Field, the event was attended by the UNIKOM Rector and Chair of the West Java APTISI, Prof. 3. Prof. HC. Dr. Ir. Eddy Soeryanto Soegoto, M.T., Vice Rector I for Academic and Student Affairs Prof. Dr. Hj. Umi Narimawati, Dra., S.E., M.Si., M.Pd., the Field Supervisors (DPL), and all participants of the UNIKOM 2026 Impactful Community Service Program.

    UNIKOM Rector, Prof. 3 Prof. HC. Dr. Ir. Eddy Soeryanto Soegoto, M.T., in his remarks, expressed his pride in the enthusiasm, unity, and integrity of the students who will carry out the Impactful Community Service Program. According to him, this activity is not merely an academic agenda but a tangible form of student contribution to the community as well as support for the West Java Provincial Government’s program to address waste management issues. “I am very pleased and proud of the solidarity shown by the community and UNIKOM students, as well as the integrity they have demonstrated. Today, I officially send off UNIKOM students to carry out their KKN in the field,” said Prof. Eddy.

    Furthermore, Prof. Eddy emphasized that UNIKOM students are expected to serve as pioneers and role models for other universities in raising public awareness about waste management. Students are not only asked to help manage waste directly but also to educate the community on the importance of sorting waste by type, such as residual waste and plastic. “Most importantly, the government has asked our students to educate the community on how to sort waste—distinguishing between residual waste, plastic, and other categories. This will help foster a habit within our community, particularly in Coblong,” Prof. Eddy stressed.

    According to him, the habit of sorting waste at the community level will make a significant contribution to creating a cleaner environment while also helping the government resolve waste management issues. Prof. Eddy also noted that UNIKOM’s Impact-Driven Community Service Program is expected to serve as a model that can be replicated by other private universities in West Java. As Chair of APTISI West Java, Prof. Eddy outlined plans to encourage other universities to follow the example set by UNIKOM students in addressing environmental issues. “These UNIKOM students serve as a model for other private universities throughout West Java to emulate,” he stated.

    The program was designed with a regional approach, in which universities take on the role of mentoring a single subdistrict. UNIKOM selected Coblong Subdistrict as the implementation area because it is located in the vicinity of the campus. At the end of his remarks, Prof. Eddy expressed hope that the best practices carried out by UNIKOM students in Coblong could eventually be developed and shared with other universities, both in West Java and across various regencies and cities. In addition, he also noted that the local government has recognized the role of UNIKOM students in helping to resolve community issues. According to him, UNIKOM’s involvement in this program aligns with the government’s hope that higher education institutions not only serve as educational institutions but also have a tangible impact on their surrounding communities.

    Meanwhile, the First Vice Rector for Academic and Student Affairs, who also serves as the Executive Chair of UNIKOM’s Impactful Community Service Program (KKN Berdampak), Prof. Dr. Hj. Umi Narimawati, Dra., S.E., M.Si., M.Pd., expressed her appreciation to all students, academic programs, faculty members, and field supervisors who supported the implementation of the program. She emphasized that the Impact-Driven Community Service Program (KKN Berdampak) is a manifestation of UNIKOM’s commitment to the community and a means for students to learn firsthand from real-world challenges. “This is a manifestation of UNIKOM’s commitment and love for its students. We learn in the real community,” she said.

    Prof. Umi explained that the Impactful Community Service Program (KKN Berdampak) is not merely an activity to “clean up trash,” but rather a learning process that encourages students to understand and help solve various community issues. This program is also being integrated into the curriculum. The academic credit load for KKN can be adjusted according to each study program; in fact, some programs have proposed up to approximately 20 SKS. This demonstrates strong support from various degree programs at UNIKOM for the Impactful Community Service Program. “It’s not just about solving a single problem, but addressing the various challenges facing the community,” explained Prof. Umi.

    For the 2026 Impactful Community Service Program, UNIKOM dispatched 560 students to participate in activities in Coblong Subdistrict. This number reflects UNIKOM’s commitment to making a broader contribution to the waste management program in the city of Bandung. The students will be accompanied by Field Supervisors, who play a crucial role in guiding, directing, and evaluating the implementation of activities in the field.

    Prof. Umi urged all students to maintain discipline, abide by the rules in the areas where they are assigned, and uphold the reputation of their alma mater. “Maintain proper conduct and uphold the good name of UNIKOM, which we all love. Share the positive aspects of UNIKOM while you’re there,” she told the students. She also reminded them to comply with all administrative requirements and KKN activities, including filling out attendance sheets and preparing reports.

    The send-off ceremony was marked by the symbolic dismissal of the “KKN Berdampak” students by the UNIKOM Rector. Two student representatives Arkan Ghifari from the Architecture Engineering program and Renata Rufaidah from the International Relations program stepped forward to participate in the send-off ceremony, which included the presentation of program insignia and the handover of ID cards. Following the ceremony, the UNIKOM 2026 “KKN Berdampak” students were officially sent off to carry out their community service.

    Through the 2026 Impactful Community Service Program, UNIKOM hopes that students will be able to make measurable and sustainable contributions to the community. In addition to providing education on waste sorting and management, students are expected to serve as agents of change who raise public awareness and encourage the development of lifestyle habits that are more environmentally conscious. Guided by the motto “Tracked Waste, Organized Environment,” 560 UNIKOM Impact Community Service Program students are ready to carry out their duties in Coblong Subdistrict, bringing their academic enthusiasm, social commitment, and the good name of their alma mater to create a positive impact on the community.

This achievement demonstrates that UNIKOM students are capable of balancing the development of academic competencies with non-academic achievements by cultivating their interests and talents in sports.

  • Strengthening Its Global Presence: Director Of International Programs Unikom Appears As Keynote Speaker At Mahasarakham University In Thailand, Discussing Topics Ranging From Smart Universities To Student Mobility

    Strengthening Its Global Presence: Director Of International Programs Unikom Appears As Keynote Speaker At Mahasarakham University In Thailand, Discussing Topics Ranging From Smart Universities To Student Mobility

    BANDUNG, UNIKOM – The Universitas Komputer Indonesia (UNIKOM) commitment to expanding its international academic network while providing global experiences for students continues to be strengthened through various collaborative programs with partner universities abroad. One such initiative was realized through the participation of UNIKOM’s Director of International Programs, Dr. Senny Luckarydi, S.P., M.M., as a keynote speaker at an international conference held over a week from July 20–27, 2026, at Mahasarakham University in Thailand.

    Dr. Senny Luckarydi, S.P., M.M., had the opportunity to accept an invitation from Mahasarakham University, one of the largest public universities in Northern Thailand with approximately 50,000 students. The invitation came from the Faculty of Education in connection with an international conference addressing various strategic issues in the development of education and university governance.

    On this occasion, Dr. Senny was entrusted to deliver the keynote speech on the theme “Smart University Management.” According to him, the concept of a smart university cannot be interpreted merely as the digitization of learning or a shift in services from conventional systems to online platforms, but rather as a comprehensive transformation in university management. “A smart university is not merely a transition from offline to online, but also a massive transformation in terms of services, governance and management, infrastructure, and so on,” said Dr. Senny.

    Furthermore, Dr. Senny explained that the transformation toward a smart university requires integrated changes across various aspects of higher education management. This ranges from how universities provide services to the academic community, to establishing adaptive governance, developing effective management systems, and providing infrastructure capable of supporting a technology-based educational ecosystem.

    Dr. Senny’s presence as a keynote speaker is also part of the implementation of UNIKOM’s international collaboration with Mahasarakham University, which not only focuses on inter-institutional academic activities but also opens opportunities for students to gain cross-border learning experiences through student mobility programs. “This includes collaboration on the International Program because we also send students to participate in mobility programs there,” he explained.

    In practice, UNIKOM students participating in the mobility program come from the International Relations (IR) and Information Systems programs. The program provides students with the opportunity to experience an international academic environment firsthand, broaden their horizons, build networks, and interact with students from diverse cultural backgrounds.

    This collaboration will also continue to be developed in both directions. In November 2026, Mahasarakham University is scheduled to send 10 students and 4 faculty members to visit UNIKOM. The delegation’s visit is expected to further strengthen academic interactions and open up new opportunities for collaboration between the two institutions. In addition to serving as a keynote speaker, this series of international activities also provided an opportunity for Dr. Senny to share her academic knowledge and experience, including through a publication workshop designed to build participants’ capacity in understanding the processes and strategies of scientific publishing.

    According to Dr. Senny, the sustainability of international cooperation must be directed toward tangible benefits for both the institutions and the students. Collaboration does not end with ceremonies or the signing of cooperation agreements; rather, it must be realized through various activities that enrich students’ experiences and enhance the quality of education. “Our hope is that our cooperation will grow in both scope and impact. Ultimately, the goal is to improve the quality of education and provide enrichment for students offering them engaging experiences so that their knowledge can be better applied and they are more motivated to pursue their studies,” she explained. Strengthening cooperation with international universities is part of UNIKOM’s efforts to build an increasingly open and globally oriented educational ecosystem.

    DOI: 10.1109/TSSA56819.2022.10063919

    Abstract

    This study aims to examine the suitability of the conceptual model regarding the effect of business strategy, user competence, organizational structure on the Effectiveness of Management Accounting Software (MAS), and how the influence between the variables studied during the Covid 19 Pandemic took place. Quantitative methods are used to test the suitability of the proposed model and to determine the predicted effect between the variables studied. The data were tested using Covarian Base Structural Equation Model (CB-SEM) with Lisrell 8.5 software. This study uses primary data collected through questionnaires to a population of 118 State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) Management Accounting departments in Indonesia, with a selected sample size of 100 SOEs, which were selected using a simple random technique. The results of this study succeeded in confirming the conceptual model developed by the researcher and empirically proving the influence of business strategy on MAS Effectiveness, user competence on MAS Effectiveness and organizational structure on MAS Effectiveness in Indonesian SOEs companies. The effectiveness of MAS depends on the relevance of the needs of its users. The right business strategy, effectively provides relevant information for the company to design MAIS according to user needs, so that the company’s operational activities run effectively and efficiently, the company is able to implement a Cost Reduction Strategy through production cost savings, production process accuracy, implementing product differentiation and low pricing strategy with a focus on customer needs during the Covid-19 pandemic. The results of this study contribute to producing strategic management accounting information to anticipate business continuity during and after the Covid 19 Pandemic and to help overcome the crisis due to the Covid 19 pandemic in the early stages of the Covid 19 Pandemic by optimizing business strategy, organizational structure, and company HR competencies. © 2022 IEEE.

    Abstract

    The purpose of this study was to examine two models of the economic feasibility of producing nanoparticle of dysprosium-doped cobalt ferrites by sol-gel auto-combustion method, from a laboratory scale to an industrial scale, including technical analysis and economic evaluation. Various economic evaluation parameters were analyzed to report the fabrication potential of dysprosium-doped cobalt ferrites nanoparticles in the case of the time required for a speculation to recover its total initial expenditure (PBP), the conditions of a generating project in the production function in years (CNPV), undertaking profits, etc. The results of the economic feasibility study on the production of dysprosium-doped cobalt ferrites nanoparticles showed that all parameter changes gave positive values, demonstrating that this project might have been practical to run commercially and on a large scale. Technical analysis to produce 26.4 tons of dysprosium-doped cobalt ferrites nanoparticles per year reveals that investment will be gainful then afterward more than three years. This project emulates PBP capital market guidelines due to the crisp return on investment. Estimates range from ideal to worstcase states in production to ensure project feasibility, including labor, sales, crude materials, utilities, external factors, and taxes. © 2022,Mathematical Modelling of Engineering Problems.

    DOI: 10.1109/INCITEST59455.2023.10395924

    Abstract

    Visualization of export-import data with the support of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) can help transform complex data into easier to understand. The aim of this research is to provide a clearer and more comprehensive view of the export and import trade patterns of a region, as well as to identify trends, spatial relationships and factors that influence these trade activities. By using GIS, information can be represented visually through interactive maps, allowing decision makers to make more in-depth analyzes and formulate policies. In the process of developing this system, researchers adopted a prototype method, which started with the needs analysis step, followed by the design stage, development implementation, testing, and finally the finalization stage. The output of this research is in the form of visualization of export and import data, which is based on the HS (Harmonized System) and KBLI (Standard Classification of Indonesian Business Fields) code classifications. This research has contributions to academic and practical contexts, one of which is material for consideration in entering into or continuing an FTA (Free Trade Agreement). © 2023 IEEE.
