Abstract

Developing vocational education curricula responsive to Industry 4.0 dynamics is an urgent need. This study aims to design an Outcome-Based Education (OBE)-based curriculum for the D3-Computer Engineering Study Program that integrates the Indonesian National Qualification Framework (KKNI) Level 5, digital industry needs, and institutional vision. The research method uses Research and Development (R&D) with a modified ADDIE model. Data was collected through documentation studies, curriculum benchmarking, FGDs with industry stakeholders, and design simulation assisted by Generative AI DeepSeek. The results produced a comprehensive OBE curriculum model including: (1) strengthened vision-mission formulation; (2) five Program Educational Objectives (PEO); (3) five Graduate Profiles; (4) twelve Graduate Learning Outcomes (GLO); (5) forty Course Materials; and (6) an operational curriculum structure of 110 credits with 53.6% practical composition. The curriculum integrates Industry 4.0 competencies such as Internet of Things (IoT), embedded systems, cybersecurity, cloud computing, and technopreneurship. Correlation matrix analysis shows high consistency between components with an average TPP-GP correlation coefficient of 0.82. The use of Gen AI proved effective in accelerating the analysis process by 60% and ensuring consistency of vertical integration. This curriculum model is recommended for implementation in computer engineering vocational study programs with institutional context adjustments.
