Development of Guidelines for Writing Scientific Publication Articles for Undergraduate Students in The Department of Civil Engineering

Abstract

The Students of the Applied Bachelor of Civil Engineering Department in Polines were
declared to have passed perfectly after publishing scientific articles in journals. It must be
realized by students that the role of scientific publications is very important to support their
careers and names after actually graduating from Polines. The aims of this research are (1)
to describe the need and urgency of a guide for writing scientific publication articles for
students and (2) to develop a guide for writing scientific publication articles for students of
the Civil Engineering Department. This study uses a research and development approach.
The validation of this guide is carried out in terms of content/material feasibility,
presentation, language, and graphics. The target user guide for writing articles for scientific
publications is Bachelor of Applied Civil Engineering students. The results of this study are
(1) guidelines for writing scientific publication articles are needed to support the skills of
Civil Engineering students to be productive in writing scientific publication articles and (2)
guidelines for writing scientific publication articles for students of the Civil Engineering
Department are developed based on regulations, systematics, and based writing ethics so
that the results can be accounted for and have a scientific contribution in vocational
College.
