Abstract
Abstract: This study aims to examine the implementation of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) based Integrity Zone policies within the academic administration governance of the Foreign Language Department, FBS UNIMED. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach with a sequential explanatory design, data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 150 respondents and deepened via observation, interviews, and document analysis of digital instruments, such as academic grade appeal forms and Quality Assurance Unit checklists. The results showed that bureaucratic service effectiveness reached 88.5% (excellent category). This integration produced participatory digital transformations that successfully aligned graduate learning outcomes with managerial transparency, effectively resolving initial work culture adaptation challenges through peer mentoring. In conclusion, integrating OBE into institutional governance creates an adaptive and transparent "Outcome-Based Academic Bureaucracy" model, proving that administrative compliance and academic processes form a unified ecosystem that highly supports the quality assurance parameters for international accreditation. Keywords: integrity zone; OBE; academic governance; bureaucratic reform; international accreditation. Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji implementasi kebijakan Zona Integritas berbasis Outcome-Based Education (OBE) dalam tata kelola administrasi akademik di Jurusan Bahasa Asing FBS UNIMED. Menggunakan pendekatan metode campuran dengan desain sequential explanatory, data dikumpulkan melalui kuesioner kepada 150 responden dan diperdalam melalui observasi, wawancara, serta analisis dokumen terhadap instrumen digital seperti formulir hak sanggah nilai akademik dan ceklis Unit Jaminan Mutu. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan efektivitas layanan birokrasi mencapai 88,5% (kategori sangat baik). Integrasi ini menghasilkan transformasi digital partisipatif yang menyelaraskan capaian pembelajaran lulusan dengan transparansi manajerial, serta berhasil mengatasi tantangan adaptasi budaya kerja awal melalui pendampingan sejawat. Sebagai simpulan, integrasi OBE ke dalam tata kelola institusi menciptakan model "Birokrasi Akademik Berbasis Luaran" yang adaptif dan transparan, membuktikan bahwa kepatuhan administratif dan proses akademik merupakan ekosistem terpadu yang sangat mendukung parameter penjaminan mutu akreditasi internasional. Kata kunci: zona integritas; OBE; tata kelola akademik; reformasi birokrasi; akreditasi internasional.
