Meanwhile, the methodology used a mixed-method (with interview techniques, questionnaires, and focus group discussion FGD), which went through 3 phases: identification and determination of indicators, the initial design phase of the model, and validation. The results after the FGD process showed that four indicators (out of 40 based on 20 papers) were invalid in mapping specific components due to the different opinions of the participants. Therefore, in future work, the Islamic concepts to the proposed modeling. In addition, this study produced an initial model that collaborated the BITA concept with tree science as an approach to be applied by the higher education industry.
