Warm greetings,
Welcome to the Faculty of Vocational Studies at Parahyangan Catholic University (UNPAR), an academic community committed to shaping skilled and principled individuals ready to face the challenges of our time.
The Faculty of Vocational Studies at UNPAR envisions becoming an academic community in the field of vocational—or applied—sciences that is both humanistic and excellent, regionally and globally. This vision guides us to uphold human dignity and preserve the integrity of creation through the sustainable development of local and global potential.
To meet the demands of the workforce in the era of Industry 4.0, our education emphasizes the development of competencies that are relevant to technology and innovation. Learning processes are designed around practical activities, giving students hands-on experience that strengthens their readiness for real-world challenges. Alongside this, we instill humanistic values as the foundation of ethics and humanity, so that our graduates are not only skilled but also socially conscious.
The curriculum of the Faculty of Vocational Studies at UNPAR is developed based on industry competency standards, which are regularly updated through collaboration with industry partners. A strong emphasis on practicals and internships allows students to directly apply their knowledge, sharpen their skills, and enhance their adaptability to the dynamic workforce landscape.
Our educational approach includes project-based learning, collaborative learning, the use of technology, and intensive mentoring by faculty and industry practitioners. Through this approach, we hope our students do not merely learn, but grow into individuals ready to contribute to society.
Graduates of the Faculty of Vocational Studies at UNPAR are expected to possess a competitive edge: strong practical competence, solid field experience, high adaptability, and a deep sense of humanity. These qualities serve as the foundation for them to make a positive impact in both the industry and society.
We believe that the true contribution of vocational education lies in how graduates can respond to industry needs, improve community life, and develop local potential through innovation and creativity.
Thank you for placing your trust in the Faculty of Vocational Studies at UNPAR. Let us work together to build a better future by providing relevant, meaningful education rooted in human values to the next generation.
With warm regards,
