The implementation of CRSSP curriculum for undergraduate program is based on learning objectives (PLOs) that are formulated to produce a qualified and competent graduate. CRSSP curriculum is designed to be taken for 8 semesters (4 years), with maximum allowable study period is 7 years; according to Ministry of
Research, Technology and Higher Education Regulation No. 44 of 2015 about National Standards of Higher Education, article 16. The hierarchy of CRSSP is structured based on the course codes, which is a representation of the year of courses offered, main field of the course, and courses sequence. The first digit of the course code represents the year of the course offered; the second represents the main field of the courses; and the third and fourth digits represent the sequence of the courses within its corresponding main field.

The courses offered at CRSSP are designed to produce graduates that not only knowledgeable in the fields of Cartography and Remote Sensing but also have excellent personalities. Therefore, the curriculum contents of courses to build the knowledge in the field of Cartography and Remote Sensing, which shown in lectures and practicums in a structured manner, and personality development courses, such as: Religion Study, Soft skills (Success skills), Pancasila Education, Civic Education, Entrepreneurship, and Contextual Religious Studies.

Table 2. University, Faculty, Department and CRSSP Compulsory course
To be able to graduate from CRSSP undergraduate (S1) Program, students must take a minimum of 144 credits, divided into 108 SKS of compulsory courses and 36 SKS of elective courses (out of a total of 71 SKS of elective courses offered). This is equivalent to 214 – 230 ECTS (1 SKS ≈ 1.49 ECTS). The credits that must be taken by CRSSP students except from the compulsory courses from the university are 101 credits, which consist of 85 theory credits and 16 practicum credits. While the courses offered as an option are 82 credits, consisting of 62 theory credits and 20 practical credits. The ratio between compulsory and elective courses is around 55:45. Course composition and SKS in the 2017 curriculum for undergraduate of CRSSP are presented in the following Table:

At present, CRSSP is operating two curriculum simultaneously, which is 2012 curriculum and 2017 curriculum, as in 2017 CRSSP revised the curriculum to accommodate the OBE (Outcome Based Education) and SKKNI (Indonesian National Work Competency Standards). The syllabus in each curriculum and the rules of change can be seen in the following link.
