ABSTRACT

Several matters in a department can arise, one of which is if the good governance principles do not run well. Investigating the implementation of the principles is therefore necessary. The purpose of this study is to draw an image of how these governance principles are implemented in a department. The researchers use qualitative approach by a means of case study method. The research subjects are the head, the secretary, and the lecturers. The data was obtained by communication, both verbally and face to face. A documentation study guide was used to complete the data obtained in interviews, conducted by collecting and analyzing documents, including formal archives, related to the governance implementation in the department. The research results indicate that the stakeholders hold credibility, transparency, accountability, responsibility, and fairness principles. Another finding is that the governance implemented in the department is rather deemed to be a way of distributing various activities.
