Umi Lailatul Jamilah, Physics Lecturer FMIPA Develops Real-time Guidance Commission Academic Services

As part of the 2024 CPNS Basic Training, Umi Lailatul Jamilah, M.Si., a Physics lecturer at FMIPA University of Jember, developed a digital-based academic service system called Kombi in the Department of Physics. “This development is a way to apply the Smart ASN values in institutions, by creating an interactive website for the final project registration process,” said Umi. Previously done manually, now students can register for their final project, seminars, and exams directly through the Department of Physics website. This will make the bureaucracy more effective, efficient, and faster.

According to Dr. Ratna Dewi Syarifah S.Pd., M.Si., Head of Kombi at the Department of Physics, the system is also designed to be more flexible and transparent. “Real-time information will automatically sync with students’ final project data,” she explained. This data includes student bios, research titles, names of advisors and examiners, and seminar/exam schedules. Dr. Ratna, who is also a mentor for the program, added that students can now access up-to-date information about the progress of their final projects.

The system has also been enhanced with an automatic diagram that shows the distribution of final project advisors. Umi explained that this will allow the department leadership to regularly monitor students’ final projects. Dr. Agus Supriyanto, S.Si., M.T., Head of the Department of Physics, emphasized that transparent and accessible information is crucial for any service system, including Kombi. “Information that is easy to access and provides valuable knowledge is the essence of an effective information system,” he said.

Endhah Purwandari S.Si., M.Si., a former head of Kombi at the Department of Physics, noted that digital services like this are not only needed by students but also by department leaders. “The department needs this for improving the quality of academic services,” she said. This development will also be an important part of the Physics Department’s accreditation evaluation. The hope is that this program will be beneficial, sustainable, and have a positive impact on many parties.
