| Summary: | As one of the top universities in Indonesia, Intitut Teknologi Bandung is expected to produce <br />
<br />
graduates who are competent, with qualified skills. As previously mentioned by Satrio <br />
<br />
Madigondo, a head hunter who had observed the personality trends in ITB graduates for four <br />
<br />
years, he assumed the ITB graduates he ever met were having a high tendency towards narcissism <br />
<br />
compared to the other graduates from two other top universities in Indonesia such as Universitas <br />
<br />
Indonesia and Universitas Gadjah Mada. He also added that it is quite striking and disrupting the <br />
<br />
recruitment process. This research aims to become one of the explicit research on narcissism <br />
<br />
levels among the students in Institut Teknologi Bandung and also to analyze the implication of <br />
<br />
narcissism towards their career expectations. in the future. There are four aspects of narcisism, <br />
<br />
Exploitativeness / Entitlement, Leadership / Authority, Superiority / Arrogance, and SelfAbsorption <br />
<br />
/ <br />
<br />
Self-Admiration <br />
<br />
And, <br />
<br />
the <br />
<br />
three <br />
<br />
assessment <br />
<br />
aspects <br />
<br />
of <br />
<br />
career <br />
<br />
expectations <br />
<br />
are <br />
<br />
ease <br />
<br />
<br />
of <br />
<br />
<br />
finding a job, income expectations, and promotion expecations. This research used samples <br />
<br />
from business and industrial engineering discipline because based on the previous research , it <br />
<br />
found that narcissistic tendencies such as materialistic values and money importance tend to be <br />
<br />
enhanced in business students (e.g., Robak et al., 2007; Vansteenskiste, Duriez, Simons, & <br />
<br />
Soenens, 2006) and the industrial engineering discipline seems particularly relevant since the <br />
<br />
origin of business schools in Institut Teknologi Bandung from the Department of Industrial <br />
<br />
Engineering. A quantitative approach is applied by spreading online questionnaire to business <br />
<br />
students and industrial engineering students in Institut Teknologi Bandung and collecting 445 <br />
<br />
reponses in total. The results assessed by using Independent Sample T-Test, One Way Analysis <br />
<br />
of Variance (ANOVA), Two Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), and Multivariate Analysis <br />
<br />
Covariance (MANCOVA). The findings revealed that the business students in Institut Teknologi <br />
<br />
Bandung have significantly higher levels of narcissism compared to industrial engineering <br />
<br />
students, despite of controlling for gender and place of origin and the high levels of narcissism <br />
<br />
will lead to higher expectation toward career in the future. <br />
