Analisis Faktor pada Keterlambatan Studi Mahasiswa Teknik Industri Universitas Ahmad Dahlan

Accreditation for higher education institutions is an important part for ensuring the quality of institutions. The percentage of graduating on time is one of important assessments in the accreditation of study programs by the National Accreditation Board for Higher Education. However, escalating the number of students in Industrial Engineering Study Program, Universitas Ahmad Dahlan, is not matched by the number of students who can graduate on time.
