Abstract

In the context of this GUG, internationalization strategies become the main trend of universities in Indonesia, both state universities and private universities, especially Muhammadiyah universities. This study compares the strategy of two educational institutions, namely the Department of Government Science - Muhammadiyah University of Yogyakarta (UMY), and the Department of Public Policy and Management - Gadjah Mada University (UGM) in applying Good University Governance concept towards the internationalization of study programs. The sample selection of the two educational institutions is because all two have obtained an A national accreditation, have a very good reputation because they become references and have different institutional status. The research method used is a qualitative approach with the process of collecting data using interview techniques, documentation, observation and Focus Group Discussion (FGD). The results of this research can be seen, the variation of GUG results in encouraging internationalization, namely: focus on international reputation, focus on international networking, and focus on global branding.
