Frequently Asked Questions
Comprehensive institutional guide covering academic policies, operations, research, and collaborative networks.
Section I: Digital Infrastructure and Information Systems Governance
What are the primary digital platforms used by the MSP Program?
The operational efficiency of the MSP program relies on an
integrated digital ecosystem:
- Official Website (perairan.unud.ac.id): The primary portal for program profiles, academic calendars, class schedules, and administrative documentation.
- IMISSU (Integrated Management Information System): A Single Sign-On (SSO) gateway for secure access to academic records, Study Plan Card (KRS) registration, and tuition verification.
- OASE: The primary Learning Management System (LMS) for e-learning, assignment deployments, and hybrid pedagogical delivery.
How can stakeholders request website updates or report technical issues?
Stakeholders can utilize the structured Needs Assessment
Questionnaire. This tool allows users to submit targeted requests
for academic portfolio updates, student engagement documentation, or
bug reports by providing specific URLs and up to 5 file attachments
(max 100 MB per file):

Information on the MSP Study Program Website. For immediate support, stakeholders can contact the Study Program
Administrator via WhatsApp at +62 857-3866-2759 or email at
msp.fkp@unud.ac.id.
Section II: Prospective Student Inquiries: Admissions & Finances
What are the admission pathways for the 2025/2026 academic year?
The program accommodates diverse applicant profiles through three
primary pathways:
- SNBP (Merit-based National Selection): Utilizes holistic academic transcripts and portfolio achievements.
- SNBT (Test-based National Selection): A standardized examination assessing scholastic potential.
- Jalur Mandiri (Independent Pathway): Managed directly by Udayana University, including specific scholarship routes and Fast Track programs (accelerating S1 to S2 degrees).
What is the tuition fee structure (UKT) for the MSP program?
Udayana University employs the progressive Uang Kuliah Tunggal (UKT)
single-tuition fee structure. For the MSP Program, fees are
stratified based on socioeconomic capacity:
- UKT 1: IDR 500,000 (Highest financial need)
- UKT 2: IDR 1,000,000 (Low-income households)
- UKT 3: IDR 2,000,000 (Lower-middle-income)
- UKT 4: IDR 3,000,000 (Middle-income)
- UKT 5: IDR 4,000,000 (Upper-middle to high-income)
Are there scholarship opportunities and residential accommodations available?
Scholarships: Robust mitigation strategies include
the government-sponsored KIP Kuliah, Bank Indonesia Scholarship,
corporate grants (e.g., GrabScholar 2024), and university-specific
endowments.
Housing: Udayana University operates the highly subsidized Rusunawa (Student Dormitory) at IDR 1,800,000 per semester. Private housing (kost) in Jimbaran ranges from IDR 750,000 to IDR 1,500,000 per month depending on amenities.

Section III: The 2024 Curriculum Architecture and MBKM Integration
How is the 2024 Curriculum structured and what is the total SKS requirement?
The program mandates the completion of
146 Satuan Kredit Semester (SKS). Foundational and
technical sciences are heavily loaded in Semesters 1 through 4.
Semesters 5 through 7 transition into macro-management and modeling,
strategically freeing up time for students to engage in external
MBKM activities (internships, exchanges) without compromising core
competencies.
How are MBKM credits converted and are there non-convertible courses?
Students can pursue up to 40 SKS outside the university. The
curriculum introduces 15 specialized "Literasi MBKM" modules (each 2
SKS) to accredit soft skills acquired during internships, such as
Leadership, Critical Thinking, and Problem Solving.
However, certain highly specialized core modules (e.g., Aquatic Tourism Management and Methodology for Assessing Mangrove/Seagrass Communities) are strictly marked with an asterisk (*) on the Study Program Course Structure and cannot be substituted with external MBKM credits to maintain academic rigor.

Section IV: Academic Operations and the 2025/2026 Calendar
What are the critical academic timelines for the Even Semester 2025/2026?
To maintain active student status, adherence to the macro academic
timeline is strictly enforced:
- UKT Tuition Payment & KRS Data Entry: February 2 - February 20, 2026
- Lecture Period: March 2 - July 13, 2026
- Mid-Term Exams (UTS): April 20 - May 4, 2026
- Final Exams (UAS): July 6 - 10, 2026
Section V: Undergraduate Thesis (Skripsi) Protocols
What are the mandatory defense stages for the Undergraduate Thesis?
The thesis defense is segmented into three rigid evaluation stages:
- Proposal Feasibility Exam: Requires completion of min. 105 SKS, an IPK of 2.75, and attendance at 5 previous defenses.
- Research Results Seminar: Requires min. 138 SKS (no D or E grades). The student must distribute 15 copies of a draft manuscript formatted according to academic journal guidelines.
- Final Thesis Exam: A final defense comprising at least one supervisor and two distinct examiners.
What are the formatting standards for the final Skripsi document?
Manuscripts must be printed on 80-gram A4 paper, utilizing Times New
Roman size 12 with 1.5 line spacing. Margins are explicitly set at 3
cm (top, bottom, right) and 4 cm (left). The Proposal requires a
blue softcover, while the final Skripsi requires a 2mm blue
hardcover. Citations must strictly adhere to the Name-Year
(Author-Date) system.
Section VI: Faculty Expertise and Research Taxonomy (KBK)
What are the primary Research Expertise Groups (KBK) in the MSP program?
The intellectual capital is organized into highly specialized
Kelompok Bidang Keahlian (KBK):
- KBK Aquatic Resource Management: Focuses on macro-level sustainable governance, climate change mitigation, and ecotourism.
- KBK Aquatic Resources: Focuses on biological/physiological dynamics, ecotoxicology, fish population genetics, and marine Environmental DNA (eDNA).
- Cross-Disciplinary KBKs: Involves MSP experts contributing to Coastal & Marine Modeling (microplastic pollution), Marine GIS, and Aquaculture.
Section VII: Post-Graduate Trajectories & Alumni Services
What are the employment outcomes for MSP graduates based on Tracer Studies?
Recent tracking data indicates highly positive employability
metrics.
72% of graduates secured employment within six months
of graduation, with an average cumulative GPA of 3.66. Furthermore,
37% of alumni operate at a national company level, and 19% have
secured positions within international organizations, demonstrating
strong curriculum alignment with industry needs.
How can alumni process document legalization and acquire the IKAYANA card?
Legalization: Handled via the Academic Section with
a regulated tariff of IDR 30,000 per 5 sheets. Payments must be
routed through a specific BNI Virtual Account.
IKAYANA Card: The Alumni Family Association card is integrated with BNI banking features (ATM/QRIS). Alumni can collect their printed cards at the faculty student affairs offices during operational hours.

Section VIII: Industrial Partnerships & Collaborations
Who are the international and domestic partners of the MSP Program?
The program is an active node in a global research network,
maintaining MoUs with leading global universities in Japan (Chiba
Univ), Germany (Rostock Univ), Australia (Murdoch Univ), South
Korea, and China. Domestically, the program integrates with top-tier
agencies like PSDKP, BRIDA, and NGOs such as MDPI and Bionesia to
facilitate internships and joint research.
What is the protocol for initiating formal institutional collaborations?
External partners must navigate a structured pathway:
- Align objectives with a specific Kelompok Bidang Keahlian (KBK).
- Formalize through the Information and Cooperation Service Unit (UPIKS) via an MoU at the university level and an MoA/PKS at the faculty level.
- Ensure regulatory compliance via the centralized governmental portal (izinkerma.kemdiktisaintek.go.id).
