Abstrakt: This research aims to evaluate the role of students and campus support in the Flores University Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program and its impact on local community empowerment. This research uses a mixed-method approach which combines qualitative and quantitative methods. Data was collected through questionnaires, in-depth interviews, participant observation and documentation. The research results show that the level of student involvement in CSR programs is very high, with the majority of students feeling involved in various CSR activities. Institutional support, including funding, supportive policies, and provision of resources, proved critical to the program's success. CSR programs for local communities are also significant, with increased skills and economic empowerment as the main impacts felt. Apart from that, CSR programs also make a positive contribution in improving the health and education of local communities. This research concludes that strong institutional support and active student participation are key factors in the success of CSR programs. suggestions are given to increase program effectiveness through increasing institutional support, developing programs based on community needs, expanding student participation, increasing capacity and competency, and implementing a sustainable monitoring and evaluation system. It is hoped that implementing these suggestions can strengthen the University of Flores CSR program and provide greater benefits for the local community. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
