In ‘Bandung State Polytechnic for Manufacturing’ (POLMAN) Bandung as a vocational education institution, Production Base Education (PBE) is already implemented for years. Through this concept students are doing practical jobs that inquired by real customer from industries, with the Quality-Cost-Delivery (QCD) necessity as well. The student practical program schedule is made structurally, combined with theory and other needed contents according the planned competency for each study program in 3 years (6 semesters). Therefore, so far 2 weeks for practical and 1 week theory alternately is arranged and ran well. Students will then learn all about process and transformation of raw material to product included assembly, but they seem not enough experienced in Operation Management and integrating the related manufacture activities. There are feedbacks that POLMAN graduates have adequate capability in technical matters like designing, machining, fabrication etc. but few skills in managing could still be improved. In 321 program idea, students will get the first 3 semesters for basic matters needed, the next 2 semesters in integrated continually project program and the last 1 semester for finalization and the additional enrichment items. With this program, students will more concern and get better understanding in project handling comprehensively, integrating all related planning, relevancies among one process to others in order handling and manufacture activities, and be realized in controlling the milestone of supply chain component entities like vendor, logistic, production, sales and customer. The consequences in market and project matter preparation of course has to be highly anticipated.

AbstractThe purpose of this chapter is to introduce a higher education social enterprise program and explore how it is shaping the field of social entrepreneurship. Social enterprise related university programs are an emerging trend. Entrepreneurial university theory and ecosystem framework are used to illustrate how the university social enterprise program, in turn, develops the field of social entrepreneurship. An example of an existing social enterprise program is discussed to highlight how it can be designed. Cases of social enterprises emerged as the result of the program are used to outline the different impacts that such support to social entrepreneurship might have. The research chapter reveals the multi-dimensional nature of the social enterprise program and its impact on students establishing their own social enterprises. It suggests that the incubation and other support activities should expand beyond the university program including a variety of network partners. The chapter provides empirical evidence of social enterprise development in a higher education institution and contributes to the global body of knowledge about fostering social enterprise development. As the provision of social entrepreneurship education is new in Estonia and the discussions on social enterprises are premature, the number of social entrepreneurship development partners is limited and hence the empirical data is currently scarce. The journey towards an entrepreneurial university is limited due to the lack of legal support and suitable infrastructure which would enhance project-based learning, support ‘spin-offs’ and patenting and rather engenders a more traditional academic learning environment.

Patchouli (Pogostemon cablin Benth.) plant is one of the essential oil producing plants, that is useful in the chemical industry as a raw material for fragrance products and in the pharmaceutical field. The success rate of patchouli early growth, is largely determined by the cultivation techniques used, including the use of growth regulators, and growing media. This study aims to determine the effect of IBA growth regulators and the composition of plant media on the growth of patchouli plants. This research is carried out in the Greenhouse of the Forestry Study Program of the University of Mataram, using a Factorial Completely Randomized Design (RALF), the first factor is IBA growth regulator with 3 levels, namely 0, 20, 25 ppm and the second factor is composition of plant media with 3 levels, namely forest soil media, soil media:sand:compost (1:1:1), and soil media:sand:compost (2:1:3). The results show that the effect of IBA significantly affect the success percentage of cuttings and the number of roots of patchouli plants. The effect of plant media composition and the interaction between treatment of IBA with plant media composition did not have a significant effect on the growth parameters of patchouli plants.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how universities can play a pivotal role in implementing sustainable development goals (SDGs). It recognises the advantage that universities have in responding to social challenges through their functions and operations, mainly through research and innovation and academic prowess. Not much guidance is available on how they can contribute to SDG implementation. The research is a case study of the University of South Africa, a distance education institution. It showcases how its science campus in Johannesburg has incorporated SDGs in its operations. Design/methodology/approach Data were collected through interviews with campus operations managers and sustainability office managers, a survey with environmental science honours students was conducted and observations of the Unisa Florida campus environment were undertaken to establish practices that contribute towards SDG implementation. Document analysis assisted in complementing the data collection process. Data were analysed by aligning practices with SDG indicators. Findings The research revealed a number of practices that align with SDGs in teaching, research, community engagement and campus operations management. Unisa is however challenged by financial limitations and as an open distance education and learning (ODeL) institution, it struggles to involve students in these projects. The paper concludes that while the most obvious contribution of universities to SDGs is towards quality education (SDG 4), higher education, including distance education institutions, can play an active role in implementing other SDGs as well. Research limitations/implications This research was limited to one institution, Unisa, owing to time limitations. While this might seem like the research was too selective, it was intentional, as the aim was to research a distance education institution. The research targeted staff involved in campus operations at Unisa’s Florida Campus, which is located in Johannesburg. Interviews were limited to students pursuing BSc Honours in Environmental Management. This was a methodological decision to contain the research, but making sure that the targeted respondents were the most informed. Individual case studies are often critiqued for being insufficiently representative to allow generalisations to other contexts (Jupp, 2006). This applies to this research in terms of “populations and universes” (Yin, 2003, p. 10), but generalisations to “theoretical propositions” (ibid) are possible. Originality/value There are few studies in Africa which researched implementation of SDGs in universities, let alone in ODeL institutions. The research revealed the challenge of involving students in sustainability practices in distance education institutions and serves as a testimony that such institutions can still have successful projects on and off campus. It suggests involving students in applied research based on the current sustainability projects on and off campus.

Operations management is a field of management which emphasizes on managing the day to day operations of business organizations. These organizations possess a huge amount of data which needs to be analysed for proper functioning of business. This large amount of data keeps some useful information hidden inside it, which needs to be uncovered. This information can be retrieved using predictive analytics techniques, which predict the patterns hidden inside the data. This data is heterogeneous, processing of such huge amount of data creates challenges for the existing technologies. MapReduce is very efficient in processing this huge amount of data. In the field of operation management, data needs to be processed efficiently, so it is highly required to process data using parallel computing framework due to its large size. This chapter covers different techniques of predictive analytics based on MapReduce framework which helps in implementing the techniques on a parallel framework.
