Project-based learning is one of the popular and promising approaches in engineering education. The current study reports on a curriculum that was designed and implemented by a graduate school to help students gain knowledge and creative thinking skills through collaboration between different majors during industrial projects in a graduate course on home appliance engineering. The students selected the topics, planned the project, conducted research, produced a prototype, and presented their results under the guidance of a group of advisors consisting of professors, technical advisors, and industry mentors. A quantitative analysis showed that this approach was effective in improving the students’ attitude toward engineering. Furthermore, a qualitative analysis showed that this learning method helped students learn how to communicate and present effectively, to flexibly approach projects, and to understand the practices of industrial research. Based on the findings, the current study discusses how the project-based learning helped students advance.

Building Engineering Education becomes a vocational education institution that prepares competent and professional graduates in building engineering. The background of this research is from the problem of the learning process that is not in accordance with the business world and the industrial world (DUDI). Through this research to see the products in Building Engineering Education seen from the teaching factory components. The purpose of this research is to find out: (1) competence delivered, (2) completion time, (3) the product is required internally/ externally. (4) investment needs. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method. The data used is the semester learning plan, college contracts and interviews. Sampling in this study using purposive sampling technique with snowball sampling technique. Based on the research results, it concluded that: (1) the competencies that are delivered from three managerial functions, namely learning planning in the form of semester learning plans (RPS) are following the existing planning stages; implementation of learning methods used project-based learning, (2) time for completion of the product processing process is completed on time according to the college contract, (3) products needed internally / externally, preferably the type of product that is in accordance with the market, (4) investment needs can be accepted in the market or used for further practice, the proceeds from product sales are allocated for maintenance and developments of tools.

Zakat is part of Islamic teachings that cover various aspects of human life. The main economic problems related to poverty are the biggest problems in a country's economy. Zakat is able to solve this problem by optimizing all potential in collecting zakat funds. Zakat is believed to be able to contribute greatly in promoting social justice, human development, and alleviating poverty. Therefore, zakat should be managed professionally and productively so that the role and contribution in prospering the community can be achieved. In addition, awareness of Muslims is also needed in efforts to develop the welfare of the people and is also a social responsibility in the welfare of the people who are still in the poverty line.
