CHAPTER 6 IBM’s INNOVATIVE CURRICULUM IBMT emphasizes its dedication to achieving excellence in its program and in the development of the talents and skills of its students and faculty. IBMT’s dedication to excellence is demonstrated through its commitment to continually improve its curriculum, which is similar to that of major US and Australian universities. IBMT divides its curriculum into two major programs: the University Core Curriculum, which is commonly called the General Education Program (or Baccalaureate Core Program) and the Bachelor’s Degree Core Requirements (or the Major Discipline Study Program). While the Major Study Discipline program provides students with knowledge of the specific fields they have chosen, the General Education program benefits the students by exploring a wide range of courses and content designed help students respond and adapt quickly to new demands, challenges and opportunities they will face in the course of their careers.
SCHOOL OF BUSINESS THE UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAM The main objective of IBMT School of Business is to prepare students for leadership positions in the business world or in other organizational environments. Toward this end, the school first provides the students with a strong foundation in general education, which refines their learning skills, it is followed by providing them with a solid background in business knowledge, skills and experience. CURRICULUM OVERVIEW The innovative curriculum of IBMT School of Business is based on our unique integration of the national core curriculum, which is mandatory for all business schools in Indonesia and the core curriculum and methodologies of outstanding universities in the US and Australia. To meet IBMT requirements, this national core curriculum has been enriched with additional courses in both the general educational area and the professional areas so students can easily transfer if desired to US universities to complete their education. The number of semestercredits or semester–hours required for an undergraduate degree in Indonesia is 145-160. 1. General Education Core of Courses (45-59 semester credits) 2. Business and Economic Core Courses (56-66 semester credits) 23 | P a g e
3. Major Courses (33-39 semester credits) 4.
