Chapter One

Introduction

1.1 Overview

Industry and university are two institutions that play an important role in the

progress of a country, because it can generate new knowledge and technology which

benefit to the progress of the country. The relationship between industry and university

is based on the interests of each institution, and that relationship has been running

anywhere from a few decades ago (Aslan, 2006). The cooperation between the two

institutions could produce an innovation and technology for the benefit of that

country. It has long been known that the university has a major contribution to the

progress of regional systems and national innovation through the provision of "skilled

workers" (Mowery and Sampat, 2005) and "information" (Salter et al., 2000). Therefore,

both university and industry must have contributions to mutual support and help in

improving cooperation between the two parties.

Strong links between industry and university in research and education is the

relationship that has been conducted because of the university’s interests of new science

and educational research results are useful for the university, and also the general public.

Strong links are also felt the industry could increase corporate profits and gain useful

knowledge to develop new technologies, so it can be applied to the production activities

that can be useful for society (Mowery, 2011).

 

  However, in carrying out such relations between university and industry have

found various problems that may hinder establishment of cooperation for both parties,

such as communication problems, the bureaucracy that exist in each institution, to the

lack of assistance from the government in establishing such partnerships.

Communication problems can lead to differences in the purpose of cooperation is that

industry and university do not get optimal results from the cooperation. University's

bureaucracy may hinder and slow the establishment of cooperation with industry, as well

as the industry's bureaucracy that is lack of seriousness to cooperate with university.

Meanwhile, the government also considered less give of attention to the relationship

between industry and university; this can be seen from the lack of funding, incentives

and facilities provided by the government in supporting the partnership. Even those

problems can reduce the quality of relationships that had been executed between

university and industry. Based on the results of the study Hamel and Prahalad (1994),

the industry often have difficulty in developing new product and technology if only

depend on the depth organizational units due to limited resources and expert people,

therefore the industry requires the university's cooperation in carrying out that works.

There are several types of relationships that can be run between university and

industry. Among them is the research together to create an innovation and

technology. Most researches and practices which are run by university and industry

stems from a research that conducted by the university which is then transferred to the

industry (Sparrow et al., 2009). The second cooperation is to run industrial training

undertaken by students of a university in the industry. Other cooperation is sending the

industry people into the university to give lectures about the industrial workplace, and

conduct training and consultation to the university that can support industrial activity in

the future (Hatakenaka, 2006).

1.2 Importance of the Research Topic

Relationship between industry and university are complementary relationship

between one another and has been running for a long time (Betts and Santoro, 2003). In

this case, the university role is to produce students of high quality that will fill positions

in the industry at the future. Whereas, industry play a roles in giving an introduction

about the industry workplace to students and provide the technology to create an

innovation.

From the statement about the relations between industry and university, the

researcher wanted to know some factors that exist in industry in order to conduct

relationship with university that run in Indonesia, especially in Palembang, South

Sumatera. Phase relations of cooperation can be seen from the number of research by

both parties. Besides, the phase relationships can also be seen from the number of

lectures that industry conduct to university about the industry workplace, and the

number of students who do industrial training in the industry. Not only that, the phase of

cooperation can also be measured by the ability of industry and university in overcoming

barriers when run that cooperation. According to Laestadius (2004), an organization's

success cannot be separated from the organization's ability to increase corporate

knowledge for healthy competition and innovation. This can be achieved through

cooperation with the university. The statement was also supported from the results of

research conducted by Agrawal (2001), that the organization's success cannot be

separated from partnerships with university that have provided important new source of

knowledge for the industry.

Basically, this study intends to determine the types of cooperation are often run

by industry and university, any barriers that arise in a relationship of cooperation, the

motives of what is a barometer of the success of such cooperation, and also to know the

differences of interest the cooperation of the industry and university.

Page 20: INDUSTRY AND UNIVERSITY LINKAGES (STUDY OF PT. …eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/40613/1/WendyAriyandaMFPPSM2012.pdfObjektif utama kajian ini ialah untuk mengetahui tentang hubungan kerjasama

4  

To get answers to the questions above, then it needs to be made a questionnaire

that will be given to the industry and universities. Questionnaires will be distributed to

the PT. PUSRI, while for the university, in this case UNSRI, have already been

distributed in advance because research in university has been carried out.

Questionnaires that are distributed to the PT. PUSRI or UNSRI are the same

questionnaire, this is due to issues and problems in the questionnaire are getting different

answers from both sides. So there will be comparative view of the collaboration

undertaken by the industry and university.

Furthermore, differences in views between industry and university will be

analyzed by comparing the two answers. Results from this comparison that can be used

by industry, in this case PT. PUSRI, and university, in this case UNSRI, to find out

about their cooperation during this run. From the results of this comparison, industry and

university can know what kind of cooperation that they often do, and what kind of

cooperation is most done by other institutions. Industry and university can also find out

their weaknesses in a relationship of cooperation, the weakness can be seen from the

barriers that often arise in a relationship such cooperation. So it can be improved to

further cooperation-cooperation. In addition, industry and university can also provide

feedback between each other in order to strengthen cooperation and increase the number

of co-operation to be performed.

Not only addressed to industry and university, but research is also directed

towards the government. The expectation of the results of this research is government

can provide support in the form of funding, incentives, and also facilities to support the

cooperative relationship between industry and university. Also expected to be industry-

university-government can both cooperate with the aim to advance the nation's

economy. A developed nation's economy will have a positive impact to all aspects of life

of the nation.

1.3 Research Objectives and Questions

The general objective of this dissertation is to determine the relationship of

cooperation between PT. PUSRI and university in Indonesia, Palembang in particular.

Researcher wants to know the characteristics of cooperation between industry and

university in Indonesia. Therefore, several questions have been made to obtain data that

can assist in the completion of this study.

Firstly, the purpose of this study is to explore the kinds of cooperative

relationships between industry and university in Indonesia, especially for the

industry. So that kind of cooperation can be enhanced and followed by other industries

which would make cooperation with the university. Therefore, the right question to

answer that objective are:

(i) What kinds of cooperation that conducted by PT. PUSRI with university?

Secondly, this study aims to determine the perceived barriers to the industry in

carrying out cooperative relationships with university. So these barriers can be removed

later. Question that can answer this goal is:

(ii) What types of barriers that PT. PUSRI felt in carrying out cooperative

relationships with universities?

The final purpose of this study is to identify the motives of university-industry

collaboration. The appropriate questions to answer this objective are:

(iii) What are the motives of relationship between PT. PUSRI and university?

1.4 Scope of Study

The study will be conduct in industry and university in Indonesia, particularly in

the area of South Sumatra. The respondents in this study are workers in industry and

lecturers in university who will be selected at random. The industry and university are:

(i) P.T. Pupuk Sriwijaya (PUSRI) Palembang, South Sumatra (ii) University of Sriwijaya (UNSRI) Palembang, South Sumatra

The main reason to do research in these two institutions because of PT. PUSRI is

a company that has been long standing and also has experience working with university.

While UNSRI is the university that has been long standing, and also has extensive

experience in establishing partnerships with industry. The other reasons for choosing

these two institutions for research are that the two institutions are located in the same

city, Palembang. So it can save time and costs of doing research. In addition, to conduct

research at the two institutions is also easier because the author had access to be able to

do research, in this case make the distribution of questionnaire.

studies are as follows: (i) The study was carried out by conducting a research against the university

and industry in Indonesia, especially in South Sumatera. In this case are

P.T.PUSRI and UNSRI. Thus the results of this study can only be utilized

by these institutions. (ii) The research was conducted by giving questionnaires to workers in PT.

PUSRI and lecturers in UNSRI.

1.6 Significance of Study

This study also helps to know and analyze the importance of the relationship

between the university and industry in Indonesia, which can facilitate between industry

and university in enhance cooperation in various fields. These benefits include:

(i) Assist industry and university to find out what kind of cooperation they

can do to help each other in improving productivity in each institution.

(ii) Provide advice about how to explore cooperation that can help improve

the productivity between the two institutions.

(iii) Assist industry and university to know what barriers they can prevent and

resolve in carrying out cooperative relations.

(iv) Provide information about the motives that can describe the success of

relationships.

The first advantage can assist the industry and university to increase the intensity

of cooperation relationships. This research will provide a positive impact on the progress

and intensity of cooperation between industry and university. Since the review of

research that will run around the type of partnership that is usually done by industry and

university. The answers of these questions will be used as reference material by the

industry and university to find out what kind of cooperation that they often run, and

what kind of cooperation that they rarely do. So it can help the industry and university

can increase over the previous cooperation is very seldom they do.

The second advantage that obtained by industry and university is the input of the

respondents against the company or university in order to make improvements and

intensification of the cooperation that has been executed. So to further co-operations, the

shortfall can be eliminated so that the quality of cooperation is increasing. This will

indirectly make a company's production capacity will be increased, because the creation

of new technologies and innovations from the result of cooperation between industry

and university.

The third advantage that gained by industry and university from the results of

this research is information about the barriers that have so far appeared in a relationship

of cooperation. Due to these constraints can be used as a learning by both institutions in

order to do a more effective communication to produce an effective partnership and

efficient.

While the benefits that can be obtained from the results of this research is

information on the motives that always arise when a relationship of cooperation has been

executed. Motives were given by respondents who had conducted a relationship of

cooperation with university, because they know the positive impact of what they get

when a relationship of cooperation has been executed. So that industry and university

have access and ease of doing some research related to the facilities and knowledge

contained in each institution.
