Campus competition in Central Java creates superior and empowered human resources to make XYZ campus optimize the Knowledge Sharing process. In optimizing the Knowledge Sharing process on the XYZ campus through interaction and communication between students in the study program. This study aims to identify the Knowledge Sharing collaboration of students on the XYZ campus in three study programs with 100 respondents using the Social Network Analysis (SNA) method. The parameters used in this study include density, degree centrality, closeness centrality, betweenness centrality, and clicks (subgroups). Based on the analysis of the results obtained by the level of density level of 4.7% or weak ties because under 50%. Actor 98 has the highest degree of centrality with outdegree value 32 and indegree 7, while actor 65, which has the highest closeness centrality with inCloseness value 16,952 and outCloseness value 1,020. Actor 15 also has the highest centrality betweenness with an amount of Betweenness 2750,148 and nBetweenness 28,346. In this study, it can be concluded that there is collaboration in the Knowledge Sharing of students on the XYZ campus from each divided into three study programs, namely, informatics engineering, accounting computerization, and graphic design.

Abstract Based on the social network analysis method, this paper studies the impact of corporate knowledge-sharing in social media, sorts out the relationship between corporate internal social capital, knowledge-sharing, and individual innovation behavior, and explores the reliability of the scale through exploratory factor analysis validity test to ensure the reliability and rationality of the questionnaire, using improved social networks to construct structural equation models and regression analysis to verify the research model and related assumptions, and found that social media tacit knowledge-sharing in structural capital, cognitive capital the intermediary effect in the influence of individual innovation behavior is remarkable. The sharing attitude has a broad intermediary role between the interactive relationship and the willingness to share. There is a partial intermediary role between the reciprocity and the willingness to share, the common language, and the willingness to share, the common vision, and the willingness to share.
