Abstract

Curriculum development is carried out by the Interior Design Study Program at Petra Christian University to foster academic competencies, encourage and facilitate students to master various sciences according to their specialization, as well as enable them to understand real problems and find creative solutions. This article discusses various learning activities that contribute to empirical knowledge regarding the successful implementation of project-based learning in a sustainable manner. Through project-based learning, the learning process is built on learning activities with real tasks that challenge students to solve daily life problems independently and collaboratively. Meanwhile, through service learning, students experience direct interaction with the community where they live. Overall, implementing learning helps promote the existence of the design profession to the public. Communities become more aware that they must increase awareness of their cultural environment. In contrast, students become more aware of their competence as designers in building a better environment.
