Abstract

Kampus Merdeka concept of providing work experiences to students is basically an experiential learning approach to support the achievement of learning outcomes. The effectiveness of experiential learning requires some factors. One of those is student readiness, which is affected by student preference and perception. This study conducted a survey to students in a private university in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, about students’ preferences and perceptions on Kampus Merdeka experiential learning programs. The results show that students’ preferences and perceptions vary. Three most interesting programs according to students are internship, student exchange, and humanitarian program. Three most avoided programs depend on the discipline. Students from STEM discipline tend to avoid independent project, teaching, and entrepreneur program, while students from HS discipline tend to not taking independent project, research, and teaching. The two most reasons of not choosing a program are students’ interest to the programs and students’ perception on the program. The insights coming from the survey is that the students still do not really understand and aware to the Kampus Merdeka experiential learning programs. Thus, some actions related to knowledge sharing and awareness are required to be taken.
