- Abstract
In the Fourth Industrial Revolution era (Industry 4.0), everything is required to be flexible, including a bureaucratic system, especially in the education bureaucracy where education is a pillar in the progress of the nation because education is in direct contact with the nation’s next generation. Today, the government continues to do its best and to seek innovation to create an attractive, non-monotonous, and flexible education world according to the needs of the times. If in the past all decisions were left to the central government, now in accordance with the times, it has been delegated for effectiveness. This is known as decentralization, where there is a devolution of authority from the central government to the regions to regulate and manage their own affairs. Thus, decentralization enters every field of national development, one of which is education. With the existence of decentralization in the education sector, education has the flexibility according to the location of its autonomy whether in regions, schools, or universities to make decisions and utilize existing resources without having to violate protocols from the central government. This paper used a qualitative approach and used library research or content analysis as research method, namely by discussing the results of previous studies which discussed the decentralization of higher education. The results showed that the main key to the success of this decentralization of education is the existence of cooperation and accountability of every activity and educational process carried out. However, in fact, this decentralization is not easy, there are still many pros and cons in its implementation, especially how the implementation of decentralization in higher education, namely state universities with PTN-BH status (state universities with legal entity status) are a form of educational commercialization. In fact, PTN-BH is still being continued. Even the Minister of Education and Culture has made it easy for universities wishing to change their status to become a legal entity.
