Professional Competence Study on Student of Informatics Engineering Education Study Program at Electrical Engineering Department

Abstract : This research aims to reveal the basic programming competence of Informatics Engineering students using quantitative approach with ex post facto method. Population in this research is student of study program of Informatics Engineering of 2013, 2014, and 2015. Technique determination of popu-lation number and sample, researcher use stratified sampling and cluster sampling. Researchers use cluster sampling with the aim to choose which clusters will be taken to be more accurate in obtaining re-search data. The results of this study indicate that the students’ competence is very high with 0.757 and 0.748 of reliability value.
