Abstract

Higher education in Indonesia is currently experiencing a huge transformation. In the past, there were discourses about higher education institutions (HEIs) being teaching-focused versus research-focused. However, the challenge has been elevated into the role of HEIs as agent of knowledge, culture, and technology transfer as well as for economic development. The present Government of Indonesia expects higher education to contribute significantly to the nation's competitiveness. As such, the success of HEIs is measured on the basis of two major performance indicators: skilled labour and innovation (see Kementrian Riset, Teknologi dan Pendidikan Tinggi, 2015).
