A short introduction to this curriculum
Everything psychology claims about a person rests on an instrument someone built and someone else trusted. This curriculum takes that seriously: from Statistika I in Semester 2 to Konstruksi Alat Ukur in Semester 5, a student is never more than one term away from a methods course. The theory is not diminished by this, it is made checkable.
No. The five classical pillars, development, social, personality, cognition, and physiology, each get a full course in Semester 2, and the clinical, organisational, and educational strands run in two parts across Semesters 3 and 4. What the methods spine adds is the habit of asking, of any claim about a person, how it was measured and how well.
The arc is deliberate. Semester 1 puts applied fields, assessment technique, and the professional code in front of a student immediately. Semester 2 supplies the theoretical core. Semesters 3 and 4 build method in both directions, quantitative and qualitative. Semesters 5 and 6 move from reading instruments to building them and from theory to supervised practice. Semester 7 leaves the faculty entirely for magang and KKN. Semester 8 closes with a defended skripsi and its publication.
How to read this book. Each semester page lists every course by code, name, and credit weight, grouped by category. The progression ladder gives the full six-phase shape at a glance before the semester-by-semester detail begins.
Psychology · Curriculum Handbook 202602What this curriculum is organised by
Psychology here is not a survey of schools of thought. The organising unit is the claim: what is being asserted about a person, on what evidence, gathered with what instrument, and with what right. Three principles run through every phase.
Asesmen Dasar and Kode Etik Psikologi both sit in Semester 1. A student learns to observe and interview a real person in the same term they learn what that access obliges them to, rather than acquiring the skill years before the constraint.
Statistika I, then Metodologi Kuantitatif with Statistika II and Psikometri I, then Psikometri II with Metodologi Kualitatif, then Konstruksi Alat Ukur and Analisis Data. Five consecutive semesters of measurement, quantitative and qualitative in balance.
Klinis, Industri dan Organisasi, and Pendidikan each run in two parts across Semesters 3 and 4. They are not competing majors: a graduate is expected to be literate in all three and to specialise later, through electives and postgraduate study.
Psychology · Curriculum Handbook 202603The problem this programme is built to solve
Able to gather evidence about people properly: design a study, choose or build an instrument, administer it ethically, analyse what comes back without overclaiming, and write it up so a non-specialist can act on it. Literate in clinical, organisational, and educational settings alike.
Organisations run surveys, interviews, and assessments constantly, and most of it is measurement without measurement discipline: instruments nobody validated, samples nobody defended, conclusions nobody could falsify. The scarce skill is not opinion about people, it is rigour about evidence.
Honest flag. An S1 in Psychology is not a licence to practise as a psychologist. Clinical assessment and psychological therapy in Indonesia require the Magister Profesi Psikologi and the associated professional licence. The roles listed above are the ones this degree opens directly; Semester 8's Pengembangan Karier dan Profesionalisme Psikologi exists partly to make that path explicit.

6 Curriculum Phases |
The eight semesters are organised around six phases rather than a flat sequence: Foundation, Core Theory, Method across two semesters, Practice across two semesters, Field and Community, and the Skripsi. Semesters 3 and 4 carry the heaviest classroom load, 23 and 21 credits, placed before practice begins so that a student arrives at the practicum with method already in hand.
Twelve credits, six courses, are elective. They are distributed two per term across Semesters 5, 6, and 7, which lets a student follow one of the three strands further without the programme splitting into separate tracks.
Each phase is defined by one verb. The full ladder is on the next page.
Psychology · Curriculum Handbook 202605From first observation to a defended thesis
| S1 | OrientPsikologi Dasar arrives beside Psikologi Industri dan Organisasi, Psikologi Pendidikan, assessment technique, and the professional code. A student sees where the discipline is used before being asked to master its theory. |
| S2 | GroundThe five classical pillars, development, social, personality, cognition, and physiology, taught in one term, with Statistika I opening the measurement spine. |
| S3 | MeasureQuantitative methodology, inferential statistics, and psychometrics together, alongside the first half of the clinical, organisational, and educational strands. |
| S4 | MeasurePsikometri II and qualitative methodology. The programme insists a graduate can both compute a coefficient and sit with a transcript. |
| S5 | BuildPsikodiagnostik and Konstruksi Alat Ukur: the turn from administering an instrument to constructing and validating one. |
| S6 | PractiseIntervention, counselling, community work, and the practicum, all supervised, and the research proposal seminar that sets up the skripsi. |
| S7 | ImmerseMagang and KKN. Seven of fifteen credits are earned outside the faculty, in an organisation and in a community. |
| S8 | MasterSkripsi, defended, plus a separate course in getting the result published. |

Reading the notes. The load falls steadily after Semester 3. That is intentional: as classroom credits drop, supervised practice, fieldwork, and thesis work take the remaining time, which is not fully visible in an SKS column. Semester 7 looks like the lightest term at 15 credits, but seven of those are earned outside the faculty.
The semester subtotals sum to 150 SKS, not the 151 recorded on the source spreadsheet's final row. The per-semester figures, 21, 22, 23, 21, 20, 18, 15, and 10, are internally consistent and are what this handbook reports.
Psychology · Curriculum Handbook 202607And twelve elective credits to follow one further
Klinis, Industri dan Organisasi, and Pendidikan are not competing majors. Every student takes all three, each in two parts across Semesters 3 and 4. Specialisation happens afterwards, through the six elective courses and through postgraduate study.
AKlinis PSIKOLOGI KLINIS DAN KESEHATAN MENTAL Understanding disorder, distress, and the limits of an undergraduate's role in responding to them. Role focus Mental Health Program Assistant
| BIndustri & Organisasi PSIKOLOGI INDUSTRI DAN ORGANISASI People at work: selection, assessment, group behaviour, and the organisation as a system. Role focus HR / Assessment Assistant
| CPendidikan PSIKOLOGI PENDIDIKAN DAN PERKEMBANGAN Learning, development, and the settings built to support them, from classroom to community. Role focus School Guidance Staff
|
The curriculum reserves six elective slots, Pilihan I through VI, twelve credits in total, but does not yet name them. The following pool is proposed, grouped so that a student can concentrate within one strand or deliberately spread across them.
The claim is testable at the end of Semester 5. A student who has taken Psikometri I and II, both methodologies, two statistics courses, and Konstruksi Alat Ukur can be handed an unfamiliar psychological instrument and asked the questions that matter: what does it claim to measure, on what evidence, and where would it fail.

Assessment and ethics arrive in the first term, not the third. A student who will spend four years observing and interviewing people is taught how to do it, and what it obliges them to, before the theory has finished explaining why.

Three of the eight courses this term are method. Quantitative design, inferential statistics, and psychometrics are taught together so that a student meets the question, the test, and the instrument's own reliability as one problem.

Seven credits of the fifteen are spent off campus. Magang places a student inside an organisation under supervision; KKN places them inside a community, where the client is not a person but a population.

Publikasi Ilmiah is a separate course, not an appendix to the skripsi. The programme treats getting the work read as part of doing the work.
Psychology · Curriculum Handbook 202616Psychology moves from first observation to defended skripsi in eight semesters: applied fields and professional ethics from the first term, the classical core in the second, five consecutive semesters of measurement, supervised practice, a term spent in an organisation and a community, and a thesis that has to survive being read.
