Judul: Rate of Return to Investment in Education in Faculty of Economics and Management IPB University Graduates
Abstrak: Perguruan tinggi dituntut untuk mencapai target Indeks Kinerja Utama Perguruan Tinggi Negeri (IKU-PTN) yang dikeluarkan oleh Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan terkait lulusan yang layak. Maka dari itu, perguruan tinggi perlu untuk melakukan survey serta penilaian. Hal tersebut mendorong Fakultas Ekonomi dan Manajemen untuk meningkatkan mutu lulusan maupun pelayanan. Sehingga tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengidentifikasi dan menganalisa hasil pengembalian investasi pendidikan serta kelayakan pada lulusan Fakultas Ekonomi dan Manajemen IPB. Jenis data yang digunakan dalam penelitian adalah data kuantitatif dan kualitatif melalui data primer dan sekunder. Metode penentuan dan penarikan sampel yang digunakan adalah nonprobability sampling dan purposive sampling. Jumlah sampel dalam penelitian ini sebanyak 150 orang. Metode yang digunakan berupa analisis deskriptif dan pengembalian investasi. Analisis deskriptif digunakan untuk mengolah data pada karakteristik responden. Adapun analisis pengembalian investasi berupa Benefit Cost Ratio (BCR), Rate of Return (ROR), Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA), Payback Period (PP), Net Present Value (NPV), dan Internal Rate of Return (IRR) serta analisis loyalitas lulusan menggunakan Net Promoter Score (NPS). Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan, bahwa kelayakan investasi pendidikan dari gaji lulusan dinyatakan layak namun hasil penghitungan terkait nilai manfaat berdasarkan tabungan dinyatakan tidak layak. Loyalitas lulusan terhadap Fakultas Ekonomi dan Manajemen mayoritas berada dalam kategori passive.

Judul: Efficiency of Room Use on Output  Performance Indicator at IPB University
Abstrak: IPB University memiliki berbagai jenis ruangan yang tersebar pada unit-unit fakultas maupun departemen. Namun, ketersediaan ruangan antarfakultas dan antardepartemen tidak merata. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggambarkan sejauh mana efisiensi penggunaan ruangan fakultas/departemen terkait dengan indikator kinerja output yang dihasilkan. Output yang dimaksud adalah jumlah lulusan, jumlah publikasi/HKI (Hak Kekayaan Intelektual), dan pendapatan kerja sama yang telah dicapai pada tahun 2018-2020. Analisis yang digunakan adalah analisis biplot, plot tebaran, dan statistika deskriptif sederhana. Secara umum, hasil yang diperoleh menunjukan bahwa belum ada fakultas yang relatif efisien dalam menghasilkan semua output sekaligus. Hanya beberapa fakultas yang relatif efisien dalam menghasilkan dua output, yaitu FEM dan Sekolah Bisnis yang cenderung efisien dalam menghasilkan lulusan dan pendapatan kerja sama serta FAHUTAN dan FEMA yang cenderung efisien dalam menghasilkan publikasi/HKI dan pendapatan kerja sama. Namun, FKH, FPIK, dan FAPET cenderung tidak efisien dalam menghasilkan seluruh output. Departemen Arsitektur Lanskap, Statistika, dan Teknologi Industri Pertanian relatif efisien dalam menghasilkan lulusan dan publikasi/HKI, sementara Departemen Ilmu Produksi dan Teknologi Peternakan dengan Ilmu Nutrisi dan Teknologi Pakan relatif tidak efisien., IPB University has various rooms spread across faculties and departments units. However, the availability of space interfaculty and interdepartment is not distributed. This research aims to describe how the efficiency of the faculty/department rooms is associated with the output performance indicators produced. The output performance indicators are the number of graduates, number of publications/IPR (Intelectual Property Right), and cooperation income that has been achieved in 2018-2020. The analysis used is biplot analysis, scatter plot, and simple descriptive statistics. Generally, the results obtained show that no faculty that is relatively efficient in producing all outputs at once. Only a few faculties are relatively efficient in producing two outputs, such as Faculty of Economics and Management with School of Business which tend to be efficient in producing graduates and cooperation income, then Faculty of Forestry with Human Ecology, which tend to be efficient in producing publications/IPR and cooperation income. However, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Fisheries and Marine Science, and Animal Science tend to be inefficient in producing all outputs. Department of Landscape Architecture, Statistics, and Agroindustrial Technology are relatively efficient in producing graduates and publications/IPR, while Department of Animal Production and Technology with Nutrition and Feed Technology are relatively inefficient.

Judul: Systematics of Desmos (Annonaceae) in Malesia
Abstrak: Desmos is a woody climbing genus of Annonaceae which has been widely used as traditional medicine in several countries such as China, Indo-China, Thailand, and Peninsular Malaysia to treat dysentery, vertigo, fever, and postpartum. Phylogenetic studies on Desmos showed a close relationship between Desmos and Dasymaschalon. They share similar moniliform monocarpic fruits, but their flowers are different. It has been debated among Annonaceae researchers whether both genera should be treated as the same or distinct genus. Therefore, investigation on the taxonomic delimitation of Desmos species and Dasymaschalon will be necessary. Plastid genome (plastome) identification, leaf epidermal section of Desmos species and Dasymaschalon species, a taxonomic revision of Desmos in Malesia using morphological data, the spatial distribution of Desmos species in Malesia, and morphological and genetic variation in Desmos chinensis population using ISSR marker were used to investigate taxonomic delimitation of Desmos. Plastome study of Desmos chinensis and Dasymaschalon dasymaschalum was carried out to determine the origin, evolution, phylogenomics, and identify marker candidates for Desmos and Dasymaschalon or with other genera in Annonaceae. We discovered that the plastome of Desmos chinensis was circular with the size of 167,677 bp (smaller than Dasymaschalon dasymaschalum), consist of 111 genes, including 78 protein-coding genes, 29 transfer RNAs, and 4 ribosomal RNAs. The plastome showed a typical quadripartite structure, i.e., large single copy (LSC), small single copy (SSC), and two inverted repeats (IRs). The plastome of Dasymaschalon dasymaschalum was 191,488 bp in length, which also exhibited a typical quadripartite structure (LSC, SSC, and two IRs). Desmos chinensis and Dasymaschalon dasymaschalum showed different copies of accD, ndhD, ndhF, rps18, and ycf2. Protein coding genes of rpoB, rpoC1, rbcL, matK, rpl32, infA, and rpl36 were identified based on nucleotide diversity, sequence variability, and parsimony-informative sites. The genes are defined as molecular marker candidates of plastome for phylogenetic, barcoding, and population genetic research. We predicted that Desmos chinensis and Dasymaschalon dasymaschalum separated at ca. 64 million years ago during the Paleocene. Leaf anatomical feature study was carried to support the taxonomic delimitation of interspecific Desmos and intergeneric of Desmos and Dasymaschalon. Leaf anatomy in the paradermal section of 20 taxa (12 species of Desmos, eight species of Dasymaschalon) have been carried out. According to the leaf epidermal section, Desmos and Dasymaschalon are two distinct genera mainly distinguished based on the anticlinal wall undulation of epidermal cells and supported by variation of the crystal type and size. The anticlinal wall undulation of Desmos was almost straight to slightly wavy and never sinuous; meanwhile, Dasymaschalon varies from almost straight to deeply sinusoid. The crystals of Desmos consist of rhombohedral, druse type A, and druse type B crystals, whereas Dasymaschalon has prism, druse type A, druse type B, and druse type C crystals. The recent taxonomic revision using the morphological data was mainly based on the examination of about 1374 specimens from BO, L, WAN, ANDA, SING, SAN, K, P, HUH herbaria. The Desmos species in Malesia consists of eight species: D. acutus, D. chinensis, D. chryseus, D. dunalii, D. pedunculosus, D. subbiglandulosus, two new records: D. lawii and D. macrocarpus, and one
