ABOUT US

BACKGROUND

Community Outreach Program (KKN) has become part of educational activities as well as community service, but its implementation has stopped since 1989. Given the importance of this activity to become a life learning laboratory in the midst of society as well as one of ITS’ hands in helping solve problems faced by the community, the implementation of KKN at ITS was revived. As an initial stage, KKN started from the villages in the city of Surabaya which focused on 4 themes:

IT Utilization.
Community Problem Solving (Garbage, Waste, etc.)
Formal Education (teaching students outside of school)
Online Marketing Training for SMEs

The above KKN is organized by field 1 and is still limited in place and time of implementation which is only 1 week. Starting in 2020, KKN is the responsibility of the DRPM with the aim of facilitating the integration of activities with community service programs (Abmas), but academically it is listed as part of the Insights and Technology Application Course (Wastek, 3 credits). For this reason, every KKN activity must meet predetermined process and output standards.
