Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of lecturer involvement on lecturers' perceptions of the implementation of the new curriculum in improving hard-skills, soft-skills, and fulfillment of CPL. This type of research is in the form of quantitative research. The population of this study consisted of 470 lecturers at the Islamic University of Malang. The sample of this research is 309 lecturers at the Islamic University of Malang. The data collected in this study were the results of a questionnaire conducted online. The results of the questionnaire were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results of this study indicate that the involvement of lecturers has a significant influence on lecturers' perceptions that the implementation of MBKM can improve hard-skills, soft-skills, and fulfillment of CPL. Lecturer involvement variables that significantly affect lecturers' perceptions of the implementation of MBKM are the involvement of lecturers in preparing the implementation of MBKM, having participated in socialization as a driving lecturer, and being willing to become MBKM supervisors. While the variables that did not have a significant effect were having been a field supervisor, had helped study programs in preparing CPL, had studied the MBKM guide book, and had an active role in encouraging students to take part in the MBKM. This significance is due to the active role of lecturers in participating in the preparation, socialization, and awareness in participating in the implementation of MBKM.
