1.1.2. Vision, Mission, Values, Quality Policy and Quality Objectives of BINUS UNIVERSITY
Vision
A world-class university in continuous pursuit of innovation and enterprise.
Mission
The mission of BINUS University is to contribute to the global community through the
provision of world-class education by:
Values
Based on our belief in God, our passion for education, and our view of a bright
future, we are committed to developing the nation and to building a global
community through education and technology.
Quality Policy
BINUS University is committed to providing a world class education with international
learning experience that makes positive contributions to the global community.
BINUS INTERNATIONAL is housed in the Joseph Wibowo Center (JWC) and FX campus. The
JWC and FX campuses are strategically located in the heart of south Jakarta’s business district
making it accessible to students and visitors alike. The prime location of JWC also offers easy
access to public facilities such as shopping malls and sport centers.
Core Courses
Each major has defined one or more possible courses of study towards an undergraduate
degree. These lists of courses are not fixed and are subject to continuous quality review. If
certain courses are changed to maintain quality standards, the respective schools will
undertake to do the same.
In addition, each major area of study has identified certain courses in the curriculum as
‘core courses’. Core courses are those that meet the following objectives for the course of
study:
To ensure that graduates successfully pass courses defined as critical by the relevant
bodies of knowledge and/or professional standards for each area of study; and
To ensure the quality of BINUS UNIVERSITY INTERNATIONAL graduates.
Initially, core courses were the set of courses required by the Ministry of Education to have
National Level Examinations (Ujian Negara). Although the Ministry of Education no longer
mandates the National Level Examination, BINUS UNIVERSITY INTERNATIONAL continues to
maintain these standards.
Additional quality standards have been adopted from the body of knowledge for each area
defined by various professional standards organizations. As the courses of study become
more mature and well-established, core courses also ensure that BINUS UNIVERSITY
INTERNATIONAL graduates achieve the required quality of education to keep up with the
latest developments in their respective fields, and to master the requisite body of knowledge
in their chosen areas. To pass these core courses, students must obtain a grade of at least C.
Elective Courses
To achieve 146 credits for the bachelor’s degree, students can register for elective courses
which are chosen according to their own areas of interest, and subject to certain criteria.
These courses may be taken from any of the individual areas of study.
Elective courses are not subject to the same grade point restrictions observed for the core or
graduation course requirements. Should a student fail to pass an elective course, the student
may choose either to repeat the same course, or to take a different one. Failing grades will
be included in a student’s cumulative GPA until the end of his/her study, but as long as the
student maintains an overall GPA of at least 2.0, and attains sufficient credits, a failing mark
in an elective course will not impede his/her graduation. At the end of a student’s period of
study, only successfully passed electives will be counted in the calculation of his/her total SCU
and GPA.
2.4. Assessments
Types of Assessment
A course may have a specific assessment type suitable for the purposes of achieving course
goals. Common assessments employed are:
Homework
Quizzes
Tutorial exercises
Lab session exercises/Laboratory work
Assignments
Student projects
Examinations
Class participation
Tutorials
The purpose of tutorial classes is to reinforce, apply and practice the material introduced in
lectures. Certain courses require the student to apply theories learned in the classroom more
than others. In these instances, lectures alone are not sufficient to ensure complete
understanding of the material.
Attendance at tutorials may be made compulsory, and a tutor will keep attendance sheets.
Students are responsible for verifying whether attendance at tutorials is compulsory for their
respective courses.
Tutorial attendance (or lack thereof) can be considered in determining the final mark for a
subject. The students are required to hand in solutions at the start of the session; these
tutorials correspond to a certain weighted prescribed percentage of a student’s total grades.
Attendance at Laboratory Session classes is compulsory, and a teaching assistant will record
attendance sheets. Laboratory Session attendance (or lack thereof) can be considered when
determining the final mark for the subject.
Attendance at Pre-Academics and Academic English workshop is compulsory, and the lecturer
will record attendance, which can be considered regarding the overall participation grade.
2.5. Examinations
To measure students’ progress continuously, the following examinations contribute to a
student’s assessment:
Mid semester examination
Final examination
The mid semester and final examinations are usually in-class. Whether these examinations
are open or closed book will depend on the examination paper type. Some final examinations
may consist of take-home papers, the answers to which may be submitted through an
internet portal.
Please refer to the ‘Examinations’ section of this document for specific rules regarding the
administration of examinations.
Supplementary Examination
A supplementary examination may be provided to facilitate course completion of students
and will therefore only be granted to students whose current enrolment would satisfy the
requirements for graduation.
A supplementary examination is not a reassessment of the student's overall grade or the
mark for an individual examination item. It is a new item of examination designed to assist
students to complete requirements for their qualification and is thus available for units taken
in the final semester or year of study (as applicable).
Permission to sit a supplementary examination may be granted upon filing a request before
a student’s respective Head of Program in the form of submitting a request letter. The request
is subject to a two-level approval process. First, the Head of Program approves the request.
Thereafter, the request is forwarded to the Faculty Committee for a final approval. The
supplementary examination is comprehensive and includes all the topics covered for a given
course. A passing grade obtained from the supplementary examination will replace the

The new grading system was enacted in the 2014/2015 academic year. The new grading
system is stipulated as follows:
Grade Weight Score
A 4 90-100
A- 3.67 85-89
B+ 3.33 80-84
B 3 75-79
B- 2.5 70-74
C 2 65-69
D 1 50-64
E* 0 0-49
F* Non-attendance
* = not included in GPA calculation, but included in GPS calculation
This new grading system is valid (applicable) only for the new batch of students in the
2014/2015 academic year (Binusian 2018) within the D3, D4 and S1 programs with the
following conditions:
1. In the case that students from other batches enrolled in the same course as the
Binusian 2018, there will be two grading systems applied: old grading for old batch,
new grading for Binusian 2018.
2. In the case of downgraded students who have no carry-over grades, the new grading
system is applicable for this group of students.
3. In the case of change-major students who have no carry-over grades, the new
grading system is applicable for this group of students.
Repeating Courses
Under certain circumstances, students may be required to either repeat or choose to repeat
courses for which they have been given D, E, or F grades. When a course is repeated, the
highest grade achieved will replace the lower.
Repeating a course for any reason will have scheduling implications and may impede upon
the student’s ability to graduate within the originally planned time frame for his/her course.
Overloading (i.e., taking more than the standard number of SCUs in one semester- max 21
SCUs per semester) to repeat a course is subject to the same restrictions imposed on
overloads as per BINUS INTERNATIONAL policy.
The following define the conditions under which courses can be repeated:
A course with grade D must be retaken if:
The minimum acceptable course grade is a C, or
The student’s GPA is less than 2.00 and the grade of D would cause graduation
ineligibility
A course with grade E or F must be retaken if the course is a core course for major area
of study
A course with grade E or F may be retaken at the student’s choice if the course is an
elective course. A student may choose to replace the failed course with a different
elective if they meet the minimum 146 SCU as prescribed for graduation.
Retaking a course to make up the grade after a student is deemed eligible to graduate is not
permitted.

Some courses might have additional meetings for labs, workshops or tutorials.
GPA = Latest GPA x Latest Cumulative SCU + Total Score result in current semester
Latest Cumulative SCU + Current SCU from courses with grade (A/B/C/D)
A student’s semester GPA is the student’s performance index calculated based on the grades
obtained for a semester.
A student’s cumulative GPA is the student’s performance index calculated based on the
grades earned since the start of study until the present date.
There are two general requirements for students to continue with their study and
eventually to start a thesis, which are:
· Minimum GPA 2.00
· Passed minimum 15 SCU per semester.
For students who failed to fulfil the requirements, will be given academic evaluation
reminder letter to the students and their parents.
Student Guidelines Page 19 of 59
BINUS UNIVERSITY INTERNATIONAL
Undergraduate Program
Students who are inactive/taking leave of absence for minimum three or more semesters,
and the number of SCUs left are no longer achievable in the remaining study period will be
put under consideration for expulsion from BINUS UNIVERSITY INTERNATIONAL.
3.3. Attendance
An 80% minimum course attendance is required for a student to be eligible to sit for final
examination or to be graded for final project in that course. This includes each lecture and
tutorial or laboratory sessions. Students who fail to meet this requirement for any lecture or
tutorial/laboratory session are automatically disqualified to sit for the final examination of
the course.
Absences due to short-term illness, family events/emergencies and other similar matters are
included in the 20% allowable absences for any given semester. When such absences exceed
20% of the course attendance, the student is disqualified to sit for the final examination or to
be graded for the final project (see the table above for the information on the required
minimum attendance).
Lateness is discouraged because it disturbs classes and shows disrespect toward lecturers and
classmates.
A student who is more than 30 minutes late to class may not be allowed by the lecturer to
enter the class. A lecturer may allow a late student to enter a class, but the student is marked
as absent for the whole session. It is up to the discretion of individual lecturers to reduce
the time students may be late before they are considered absent.
BINUS INTERNATIONAL uses an online attendance system on which lecturers must confirm
student attendance before the end of each meeting. The system automatically records
student attendance upon the lecturer’s submission; students are advised to monitor their
attendance through their BINUS student website. Students are advised to make sure their
attendances have been confirmed by the lecturer. Both students and lecturers are required
to tap their BINUSIAN ID card on the RFID device inside or in front of every classroom.
Academic Operations reserves the right to reject the student’s request to waive absences for
any reasons which are not acceptable, or which do not include supporting documents.
Make up class.
Under emergency circumstances, a class may be cancelled and rescheduled to later hours or
dates. The makeup class for the cancelled/rescheduled sessions is announced via the BINUS
student website under the ’Schedule’ menu option. It is students’ responsibility to check and
attend makeup classes to meet the minimum 80% class attendance requirement.
The streaming program will determine students' Study Plan in the following semester.
Changing streaming after selection is strongly discouraged.

I. Introduction
The purpose of this document is to explicitly state BINUS’ expectations for courteous and
responsible conduct, expected from all members of the BINUS community, including
students, staff, and academic faculty. BINUS Rector’s Decree No.1426/SK/PTTKK-
UBN/VII/2016 serves as the main reference and the legal foundation for the implementation
of BINUS INTERNATIONAL/BINUS BUSINESS SCHOOL’s Code of Conduct.
This Code of Student Conduct sets out the kind of behavior that disrupts and inhibits the
healthy functioning of the university, and what actions it will take to protect the community
from such disruption. The university has expectations about student behavior, and rules to
follow when students violate those expectations. This code is designed to protect both the
university community and its student members.
b) Jurisdiction
The Code of Student Conduct applies to all students from the time they are accepted for
admission through to their graduation dates.
Academic Misconduct refers to behaviors that can corrupt the learning process and
outcomes, and lead to a false impression of a student’s achievements. It includes cheating,
plagiarism, collusion (a secret agreement between parties for a fraudulent purpose), and
falsification among other things.
Academic honesty is crucial to a student's credibility and self-esteem, and ultimately reflects
the values and morals of the whole university. A student may work together with one or a
group of students discussing assignment content, identifying relevant references, and
debating issues relevant to the subject. Academic investigation is not limited to the views and
opinions of one individual but is built by forming opinion based on past and present work in
the field. It is legitimate and appropriate to synthesize the work of others, provided that such
work is clearly and accurately referenced.
The act of submitting work for evaluation or to meet a requirement is regarded as assurance
that the work is the result of the student's own thoughts and study, produced without
assistance, and stated in that student's own words, except as quotation marks, references,
or footnotes which acknowledge the use of other sources.
If a student is in doubt regarding any matter relating to the standards of academic integrity
in a course or on an assignment, that student must consult with the lecturer responsible for
the course before presenting the work.
a) Cheating
Cheating involves copying from other students, or acting contrary to assignment, test or exam
guidelines. Students are expected to exhibit honesty and ethical behavior in undertaking
assessment requirements of units. Cheating is defined as any behavior whatsoever by
students in relation to any item of assessment which may otherwise defeat the purposes of
the assessment. A student will not cheat, attempt to cheat, or incite or assist other students
to cheat in any assessment item. Cheating includes but is not limited to the following actions:
Cheating (carrying an active or inactive of any communication devices during exams is
considered as misconduct and is a violation of exam rules).
Using communication devices as an instrument to help exam will be considered as
cheating if found with corroborating evidence.
Copying from someone else's test, homework or examination paper.
Possessing, buying, selling, removing, receiving, or using, at any time or in any manner
not prescribed by the instructor, a copy or copies of any materials (in whole or part)
intended to be used as an instrument of academic evaluation.
Using materials or equipment during a test or other academic evaluation that have not
been authorized by the instructor, such as crib notes, calculators, recording devices of any
kind, any communication devices including mobile phones.
Obtaining or attempting to obtain in a fraudulent manner any material relating to a
student's academic work. Such actions include theft of examination through collusion
with a university employee.
Working with another or others in completing a take-home examination or assignment
when the instructor has required independent and unaided action.
Attempting to influence or change an academic evaluation, grade, or record by unfair
means.
Permitting or attempting to permit another student to substitute for one's self in an
academic evaluation.
Marking or submitting an examination or evaluation material in a manner designed to
deceive the grading system.
Willfully damaging the academic work or efforts of another student.
Failing to comply with a specific condition of academic integrity that has been clearly
announced in a course.

BINUS UNIVERSITY INTERNATIONAL
Undergraduate Program
Submitting material for academic evaluation that has been prepared by (an)other
individual(s).
Submitting data that have been altered or contrived in such a way as to be deliberately
misleading.
b) Plagiarism
Plagiarism occurs when the work of another person, or persons, is used and presented, as
one’s own, unless the source of each quotation or piece of borrowed material is
acknowledged with an appropriate citation. Plagiarism is a form of theft. The free exchange
of ideas depends on the participants' trust that they will be given credit for their work.
Everyone in an academic community must be responsible for acknowledging their use of
others’ words, research results, and ideas, using the methods accepted by the appropriate
academic disciplines.
A student shall not plagiarize in any item of assessment. Plagiarism is the act of taking and
using another person's work as one's own. For these rules any of the following acts constitute
plagiarism, unless the work is appropriately acknowledged:
Plagiarism occurs when the work (including such things as text, figures, ideas, or conceptual
structure, whether verbatim or not) created by another person or persons is used and
presented as one’s own creation, unless the source of each quotation or piece of borrowed
material is acknowledged with an appropriate citation. It includes closely paraphrasing
sentences, paragraphs, or themes even if not exactly copied. Plagiarism is committed
through, but not limited to, the following acts:
Copying the work of another student
Directly copying any part of another person's work
Summarizing the work of another person
Using or developing an idea or thesis derived from another person's work
Using experimental results obtained by another person
Incitement by a student of another to plagiarize
Where plagiarism occurs in items of assessment contributing to the result in a unit or course,
it will be regarded as, and treated in the same manner as, cheating in an examination.
BINUS INTERNATIONAL/BINUS BUSINESS SCHOOL takes a stern view on student plagiarism
and other practices not consistent with academic ethics. The university subscribes to Turnitin,
an anti-plagiarism software package, which lecturers use to compare students’ written
assessments against Turnitin’s large databases. Similarity reports for any type of student
work, including but not limited to essays, reports, and theses should not exceed 20%. Aside
from the use of Turnitin, lecturers employ other means of detecting plagiarism.
Aiding and/or abetting others to cheat or plagiarize include but is not limited to the following:
Giving unauthorized assistance to another or others during a test or evaluation, including
allowing someone to copy from a test or examination, or arranging with others to give or
receive answers via signals.
Substituting for another student to meet a course or graduation requirement.
Providing specific information about a recently given test, examination, or assignment to
a student who thereby gains an unfair advantage in an academic evaluation.
Providing aid to another person, knowing such aid is expressly prohibited by the
instructor, in the research, preparation, creation, writing, performing, or publication of
work to be submitted for academic evaluation.
Removing or attempting to remove, without authorization, any material relating to a class
that would give another student unfair academic advantage.
Permitting one's academic work to be represented as the work of another.
e) Collusion
Collusion refers to obtaining assistance in any academic work from another individual in a
situation in which the student is expected to perform independently.
Collusion includes working together to produce the same or similar solution when the
assessment item was to be individual work or submitting work that has been produced by
someone else on the student’s behalf as if it were the work of the student.
f) Falsification
Falsification includes presenting false information in solutions and data, or falsifying
identification, or falsifying the contributions of individual students in collaborative projects,
or falsifying the attendance by signing for another student
The student found guilty of academic dishonesty will be placed on academic integrity
probation for the remainder of the student's academic career. In addition, one or more of the
sanctions listed immediately below will be imposed.
Actions and penalties depend on the seriousness of a case and can include one or more of
the following:
A reduction in grade on the assignment on which the violation occurred.
No credit on the assignment, paper, program, test, or exam on which the violation
occurred.
No credit for the course.
The student will be suspended for up to fifteen teaching days (or expelled) if the academic
dishonesty is committed while he or she is already on academic integrity probation, or in
other aggravated cases. Factors affecting this determination include whether the acts
committed involved advance planning, falsification of papers, forms, or documents,
collaboration with others, or some actual or potential harm to other students.
The student will be expelled in the most severe cases of academic dishonesty.
Cancellation or deprivation of credit for any examination or other academic work, which
will entail an ANN (ANN - result annulled due to misconduct) grade being assigned to a
student’s academic record.
Suspension from attending lectures, seminars, tutorials or other classes.
Suspension from the use of or exclusion from laboratories or other facilities or any part
of such facilities.
Suspension from attendance at or exclusion from any examination.
Exclusion from the University or any part of the University for any specified period, not
exceeding the remainder of the calendar year.
Refusal for re-enrolment as student; due to suspension.
Expulsion from the university.
Faculty and staff must undertake a threshold responsibility for such traditional safeguards as
examination security and proctoring.
Any person may refer a student, or a student group or organization suspected of violating this
Code of Conduct to the BINUS INTERNATIONAL/BINUS BUSINESS SCHOOL Dean of
Faculty/School or his/her designate. Charges should be filed in as timely a fashion as possible
to ensure the opportunity for affecting behavior change. Failure to file charges in a timely
fashion may result in the dismissal of the charges.
A person who refers a case is normally expected to serve as the complainant, and to present
relevant evidence in disciplinary hearings or conferences. Persons wishing to withdraw
charges against a student must do so in writing; however, the university reserves the right to
pursue those charges that may impact the health, safety, and welfare of the campus
community or might otherwise interfere with the educational mission of the institution.
All members of the university community, students, faculty, and staff share the responsibility
and authority to challenge and report to the appropriate authority any acts of apparent
academic dishonesty.
Non-Academic misconduct includes any behavior that threatens the safety or well-being of
the campus community, and any other behavior that adversely affects the university or its
educational mission. Examples of behavior that will be subject to disciplinary action include:
b) Theft
Forgery, alteration, or misuse of university documents, records, or identification.
c) Forgery
Obstruction or disruption of teaching, research, administration, disciplinary procedures, or
other university activities, including its public service functions, or other authorized activities.
h) Drugs Abuse
Illegal or unauthorized possession, use, sale, or distribution of narcotics, drugs, or other
controlled substances defined as such by local or national law.
j) Disorderly Conduct
Acting in a manner on university premises or at university-sponsored activities that
unreasonably disturbs the peace and order of and within the university or intentionally or
recklessly interferes with normal university or university-sponsored activities.
k) Harassment
Any behavior that is directed toward a particular person (or persons), unwelcome, severe
and/or pervasive, and/or violates criminal law or that unreasonably interferes with the target
person's employment, academic pursuits, or participation in university-sponsored activities
is considered harassment. Types of harassment include:
l) Sexual Harassment
Unwelcome conduct that constitutes harassment on the basis of sex and/or a relationship of
authority (i.e., between a superior and a subordinate regardless of sex).
m) Racial Harassment
Unwelcome conduct that constitutes harassment on the basis of race and/or ethnic origin.
p) Trespass
Forcible or unauthorized entry into or unauthorized presence inside a university building,
office, room or areas including, but not limited to, basements, roofs, steam tunnels, furnace
rooms, crawl spaces, out buildings, and posted lands or grounds.
r) Improper dress
Distracting outfits such as transparent dresses, low-waisted pants revealing the wearer’s
underpants and/or clothing with profane words or images are prohibited. Only shoes or
sports shoes (not sandals) are acceptable.
The primary responsibility for managing the classroom environment rests with the faculty
members. Students who engage in any prohibited or unlawful acts which result in disruption
of a class may be directed by the faculty member to leave the class for the remainder of the
class period.
a) Class Attendance
Students are expected and required to attend class regularly. Students must attend 80% of
the scheduled classes, and not miss more than three consecutive class sessions.
Failure to comply with attendance requirements will result in a student’s inability to sit for
examinations. Students do not take exams will probably fail the course.
N.B. Students cannot sign in for an absent student. If the number of ‘attendances’ exceeds
the number of students present, the entire class will be marked absent that day.
f) Noise
Group exercises are fun and beneficial. However, the class next door does not have to share
in them. Please remember that noise carries and talk only as loud as necessary for you to be
heard. If the instructor deems the noise level to be too high, such exercises may be
V. Sanctions
For university students, whether individuals or groups, who engage in actions that are
inappropriate with their obligations as mentioned above, they can have sanctions imposed
on them in the form of:
A student may be guilty of another offence while on disciplinary probation; more severe
sanctions will be levied, and suspension or expulsion will be considered.
Repeated or aggravated violations of any section of this Code may also result in expulsion or
suspension or in the imposition of such lesser penalties as may be appropriate.
Additional sanctions not listed above may be applied, after consultation and approval of the
BINUS INTERNATIONAL Dean of Faculty/School. Such sanctions, where appropriate, may
include but are not limited to, required counseling, behavioral contracts, etc.
In this regard, the Rector considers there are certain conditions of individual university
students who are proven to have violated Code of Conduct, which make sanctions lighter or
heavier. Then discipline sanctions can be replaced with and/or added to social work. A form
of social work sanction is imposed on a university student who is proven to violate a
regulation, after considering recommendations from an examiner and/or Discipline
Committee.
The classification of social work sanctions, as included in the above sub-section is:
a. Social work that is equivalent with at least ten hours for a light sanction
b. Social work that is equivalent with at least thirty hours for a medium sanction
c. Social work that is equivalent with at least sixty hours for a heavy sanction
Related to this, if the perpetrator is a Student Affairs Organization, besides having sanctions
imposed on individuals, a sanction can also be imposed in the form of halting activities of the
related Student Affairs Organization.
