This paper is devoted to how a team of experts scientifically supported redesigning the curriculum of an elective study program that promotes competences for sustainable development. In contrast to other case studies of higher education for sustainable development (HESD), the paper does not present the outcome of the curricular-redesign process but focuses on its scientific support. It shows how this process was initiated and facilitated. It understands curricular redesign as a social process. The premises are, first, that supporting curricular processes means guiding the decision-making of those in charge but not making decisions in their place, and second, that the redesign of a curriculum has to consider the existing institutional situation as well as empirical and theoretical expectations. The article discusses how scientific support can help a curricular redesign draw on both experience-based knowledge and sound HESD theories and findings. Furthermore, it reflects on the role of those supporting such a process and on how they can help the actors find a realistic compromise between the existing situation and the perceived ideal. This requires competences in mining, aggregating, and reprocessing knowledge in the field of HESD, as well as in designing and supporting an interdisciplinary process.

The quality of education is still a benchmark of human resources (HR) in each country. The current era of revolution 4.0 requires a curriculum that is innovative, creative, and based on the needs of market share and the world of work with the addition of several new literacies. This study aims to identify and evaluate the tertiary curriculum (higher education curriculum) that has been applied in a higher education institution of health sciences in Buleleng, which refers to the national standard of higher education no. 44 of 2015. The evaluation was based on input, process, and output. The method used was the mixed method by using questionnaires and focus group discussions on 32 lecturers from the three knowledge fields of midwifery, nursing, and pharmacy. The results show that of the four standards evaluated, the learning process standard and assessment standard need to get priority in improving the academic system at the institution. Both of these components must be immediately improved in terms of concepts and understanding so that the goals, achievements, and quality of graduates can still be improved and maintained. Internal discussions and workshops should be done regularly each semester to refresh pedagogical ability and understanding of the regulatory faculty curriculum.
