Abstract
The scientific work of lecturers is an important element related to the career development of lecturers and ranking universities at the national and international levels. Lecturers scientific work can be in the form of publication of scientific papers or intellectual property rights of research results conducted by lecturers. This paper provides a description of how the variable constellation model that has positive and dominant influence on the improvement of the product of the lecturers scientific work is developed and then used to optimize in finding the best ways and strategies to improve the products of lecturers scientific work. The study was conducted at Pakuan University lecturers with a population of 415 lecturers and a research sample of 204 lecturers. The research method used is the POP-SDM method which is a method for modeling and optimization of strengthening management resources. There are five important steps in this method, namely 1) Extracting data in the field of competent informants about other variables that have a positive and dominant influence on the products of lecturers scientific work. 2) Determination of the constellation of influence between variables based on analysis of data obtained from informans. 3) Preparation of research hypotheses based on the constellation of influence between established variables. 4) Testing the research hypothesis using path analysis. 5) Analysis of indicators using the Sitorem method. The results of this research are in the form of a constellation model of influence between variables and ways and strategies to improve the products of lecturers scientific work through strengthening other variables studied.
