With the spirit of international collaboration, the EPA Study Program implements case-based learning in the agribusiness management course. The implementation of case-based learning is carried out to prepare EPA Study Program students to face global challenges. The class involves students from three countries, namely Indonesia, Japan, and South Korea. They succeeded in formulating innovative solutions to actual problems in the agribusiness sector.
The activity, which was held on November 26, 2024, carried two main themes, namely production risk management and human resource management. Students were divided into two large groups to explore each theme. By using a case-based learning approach, they were required to analyze real cases in the agribusiness industry, formulate problems, and design effective solutions from three countries, namely Indonesia, Japan, and South Korea.
Each presentation was followed by an in-depth discussion. Students from various countries exchanged ideas and provided input on the ideas that had been presented. Differences in origin and cultural background are a strength in producing innovative and comprehensive solutions.
This case-based learning activity is a manifestation of the EPA Study Program’s commitment to supporting sustainable development goals, especially the fourth point, namely quality education. This activity not only increases students’ knowledge of current issues in the agribusiness sector but also trains them to think critically, creatively, and collaboratively.
