Abstract

Currently, we are in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0 where the skills of Vocational High Schools graduates (VHS) in the field of mechatronics are needed for manufacturing and other industries. This article discusses the skills requirements of Vocational High Schools Mechatronics Engineering students in the industry. The method used is descriptive qualitative with four stages. The first stage is data collection with a literature review of journals, the second stage is data reduction, the third stage is data display, which is presenting data, and the final stage is the conclusion. The results show that VHS students in Mechatronics Engineering need to have soft skills and hard skills. Soft skills include critical thinking, collaboration, communication, creativity, adaptability, and complex problem solving. The hard skills required include the ability to read and create technical drawings, the ability to make electrical wiring diagrams, computer programming, microcontroller programming, PLC, and HMI programming.
