This study employed a phenomenological approach of a qualitative research design. For this study, the researcher interviewed Human Resources Department leaders in national private companies in Jakarta and foreign companies or international bodies to gain information about the quality of university graduates in Indonesia.The researcher also interviewed chancellors of private tertiary institutions to gather information about what efforts the university is making in order to prepare qualified scholars to fit the demands of IR 4.0. In order to make this research more objective, the researcher also interviewed students from private tertiary institutions to explore information about their experiences in attending university and whether there were special courses or programs given by the university in order to improve student competency. The research proved that higher education instituition plays a significant role in improving the quality of the university graduates in facing the Industrial Revolution 4.0. Further analysis indicated that there was a gap between higher education outcomes and the demands of competence in the world of work. There are still universities which haven’t implemented the program even though the curriculum has been modified and up to the present time, most of universities are still prioritizing hard skills compared to the students’ soft skill. This study provides insights on the importance of higher institutions institutions to improve the quality of the graduates to face the Industrial Revolution 4.0, discusses the advantages and disadvantages of having and not having soft skills competencies in the global era and offers recommendations for future research.

About 3.5 million graduates, on an average, every year 22,000 graduate students are coming out from Higher Educational Institutions in India, but all of them are not getting employment. Thus, the country has more than 50% able-bodied unemployed (300 million) between the ages of 18 to 50 years and they do not have required skill sets. Recruitment companies say that many of the students, who are coming out with degrees, do not have requisite employability skills to secure employment. It is estimated that by 2025, about 300 million educated youth will be waiting for jobs/ employment in the country. However, employers in India are facing a huge shortage of skilled manpower. Thus, there is little connection between education and employability of students. Ensuring the employability of students is an intrinsic part of good education and is a government priority. It is reflected in the performance indicators of educational institutions and it is likely to become increasingly important to prospective students in their choice of course and required budget for providing good infrastructure. Increasingly, our graduates have to compete for jobs with talented youth outside the states or even outside the country. To secure employment, the students must develop communication skills, self-confidence / high aspirations, transact the course curriculum effectively, involve in extra-curricular activities, aware of job opportunities, develop career related experience, linkages with the providers of employment, aware of selection procedure, face the interviews boldly etc., are important. The present paper entitled ‘Employability in Higher Education: Problems and Prospects’ discusses about the concept of employability, status of employability of students and problems faced for the employability of students. The paper also explains about the need for employability of students and pre-requisites for employability of students. Further, the prospects in the employability of students in higher educational institutions will be discussed.

Cement is the major construction material used in the civil engineering works due to which its demand is very significant, while it becomes a tough task to select a proper cement brand. The study is focused to assess factors influencing selection of cement brand. The study is conducted at Madhyapur Thimi Municipality among different level of consumer i.e house owner, supplier, contractor/mason and consultant/engineer. Out of 871 permitted under construction building of fiscal year 2016/17, 89 end consumers and 30 suppliers were selected for quesionniare survey.

The financial situation of China’s basic endowment insurance fund has begun to deteriorate, and its deterioration trend will accelerate with the deepening of the aging population, so it is urgent to carry out a study on the early warning of the payment risk of this endowment insurance fund. This paper discusses the classification accuracies of C4.5 algorithm, Naive Bayesian algorithm and BP neural network in the warning of basic endowment insurance fund payment risk. It is found that C4.5 algorithm has the best classification effect, with an accuracy of 71.43%; BP neural network takes the second place, with an accuracy of 61.90%; Naive Bayesian algorithm has a poor effect, with an accuracy of 52.38%.

This paper first analyzes the development trend and regularity of the production and sales of new energy vehicles in the first half of 2017-2019, and then establishes a BP neural network model and predicts sales in the third and fourth quarters of 2019. Then it studies the development trend of new energy vehicles and puts forward some suggestions for promoting the development of new energy vehicles.
