摘要

Core-competence is allowing university to be creative and adaptable on their student's capabilities by mapping their student's research focus. In order to be successful of core-competences goals, department strategy, student, and lecturer are crucial role in that process. However, previous study offered more general contexts and cases of competence mapping approach while less or misplaced discussed more technical process in higher education environment. Therefore, to fill out the research gap, this research examines whether and why competence mapping can help university to prepare their graduations candidate. We evaluated two core-competences which are information system management and information system engineering by checking several main construct such as information technology quality management, knowledge management, and information technology risk management. The data collected from students in department of information system, state islamic university of sulthan syarif kasim Riau, Indonesia. The results from our analysis support that students who focused on information system management (ISM) focus were 37.8%, and in information system engineering (ISE) were 2.7%, and students who taken both ISM and ISE were 59.5 %. Regarding the result, the authors concluded that students more prefer to take more or combining two fields (ISM and ISE). More theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
