PentaDosen: Lecturer Research & Performance Management Platform
A centralized web platform for university lecturers to manage research grants, peer-reviewed publications, intellectual property (HKI), and academic schedules.
Executive Summary
PentaDosen is a research and academic performance management platform designed for university lecturers. It brings research, publications, HKI, and academic activities into a single workspace.
My focus was translating complex academic workflows into a clear, responsive, and reusable frontend experience.
Core Friction Points
Research outputs, publications, and HKI records were distributed across different documents and workflows.
Users had limited visibility into verification and submission status.
Academic deadlines and research milestones were difficult to track in one place.
Frontend Engineering & UI Craft
Translated Figma designs into responsive interfaces and reusable layouts.
Built modular React components with TypeScript and Vite.
Connected frontend workflows with REST endpoints for research and HKI data.
Implemented validation, feedback states, loading states, and accessible interactions.
Three Interaction Principles
Show essential academic metrics first, while keeping detailed information accessible when needed.
Use clear status indicators so lecturers can understand progress at a glance.
Design dense academic information to remain readable across desktop and mobile layouts.
How It Was Built
Key Features

Challenges & Solutions
Multi-column tables created layout overflow on small screens.
Solution: Designed adaptive card and table layouts that preserve important metadata while remaining readable on smaller screens.
HKI applications require multiple stages between lecturers and faculty reviewers.
Solution: Used reusable stepper and status patterns to make submission progress easier to understand.
Outcome & What I Learned
